Sirmione hosts Wound | Ferita at Palazzo Callas Exhibitions from 18 July to 8 November 2026. The exhibition in Sirmione, Italy, presents photographs from the 2025 Sirmione Award for Photography and remains available during the final weeks of the display period.
Wound | Ferita continues at Palazzo Callas Exhibitions
Wound | Ferita brings together the winning images and selected photographs from the 2025 Sirmione Award for Photography. The exhibition explores the relationship between humanity and nature, using photography to consider the shared responsibility for the landscape.
The official programme places the exhibition at Palazzo Callas Exhibitions and gives its public run as 18 July to 8 November 2026. The official exhibition notice and the regional tourism listing identify both the dates and the venue.
Photography connects the exhibition with Sirmione
Palazzo Callas Exhibitions stands in Piazza Carducci, in the centre of the old town. The building dates from the end of the eighteenth century and was renovated by the Sirmione Town Council for exhibitions and major events.
Its exhibition area covers more than 400 square metres, alongside a conference room that can accommodate more than 100 people. The venue is named after Maria Callas, who stayed in Sirmione and remains part of the town's cultural identity, linking the photography programme with a building dedicated to artistic activity.
The venue information describes the palace as a reference location for exhibitions and major events. That setting makes the 2025 award photographs part of Sirmione's established programme of visual culture rather than a display separated from the town's historic centre.
What the 2025 photography award shows
The exhibition title refers to damage and repair, while the programme frames the photographs through questions about people, nature and the landscape. The selected images therefore place the local environment alongside wider reflections on how places are seen and represented.
For visitors arriving in late October or early November, the relevant point is the closing date rather than a new opening. Wound | Ferita remains the current photography exhibition at the palace until 8 November 2026, when its published run ends.
