"Pirelli Calendar 'Looking for Juliet' by Paolo Roversi" is a collection of works by Italian photographer Paolo Roversi. The Pirelli Calendar, which began in 1964, is a special calendar that was originally distributed to a limited number of people involved in the industry, and has been produced by leading photographers in the history of photography, such as Richard Avedon, Helmut Newton, Annie Leibovitz, and Peter Lindbergh. It is positioned as a visual culture space that reflects the aesthetics and views of the body of each era, going beyond a mere corporate production. In this work, Roversi draws inspiration from Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" to explore the image of Juliet inherent in multiple women, rather than a single ideal. The structure, which moves back and forth between the natural appearance and the portrayal of roles, and the format linked to short films, along with his characteristic soft expression of light, reveals a multi-layered image of womanhood, wavering between reality and fiction.
