The Museo di Roma in Trastevere presents Roma ChilometroZero, a photographic research work in which 15 Roman photographers document the complexity, changes and particularities of the city, creating “visual narratives” according to individual and specific projects.

Roma ChilometroZero is a photographic project dedicated to the city of Rome that offers an intimate, sometimes pained or ironic vision of the territory and its rhythms: it was born as a photographic campaign launched by Leica Camera Italia in collaboration with Contrasto in 2022, directed at photographers living in the capital to verify what the real and imaginary boundaries of its ever-changing urban space might be today in a city that has always been portrayed, photographed, represented and evoked.



A committee of five experts - Simona Antonacci, Maurizio Beucci, Simona Ghizzoni, Francesca Marani and Alessandra Mauro - selected 15 authors from more than 200 applicants.

The chosen photographers, each equipped with a Leica camera selected according to their needs and accompanied by the five “tutors” who followed them on their different paths, chose a theme, a particular itinerary, their own vision of Rome.

The exhibition Roma ChilometroZero represents an original and in its own way unique reconnaissance of a large part of the city a collection of works that draw, one after the other, a long itinerary to discover a new and at the same time ancient Rome, always surprising.

A space as far from the usual and shared imaginary as from the most usual routes, in these works Rome appears as a territory traversed daily that subjects everyone’s identity to continuous verification. A place where aesthetic suggestions, visual references and new aspirations, personal and social, intersect.
