photographs documenting the making of a film by Jose Maria Berzosa about the

Artist Albums
Twenty albums contain black and white photographs of works in the collection with
many in situ at the villa. Most of these photographs are duplicates of prints in
Series II.A including photographs which serve as copies of original documents, such as
certificates, artists' correspondence and drawings. The last three boxes are
photographs of Panza's Primitive and decorative arts collections, photographs of Gino
Meloni's work and miscellaneous exhibitions. The photographs were primarily shot by
Gian Sinigaglia, Giorgio Colombo and Panza, but some were also by Ugo Mulas in Spring
1961. This series only has Sinigaglia reprints of those originally shot by Panza (see
especially Varese installations of Pop art bordered at the bottom with a white strip),
and also contains Sinigaglia reprints of those originally shot by Mulas (for originals
see box 265). Colombo, Panza's current photographer, holds most of the negatives and
has made prints of Sinigaglia's photographs.
