Having inherited their grandfather’s photography studio in Trieste, in 1928, Wanda and Marion Wulz transformed it into one of the most artistically ambitious commercial practices in interwar Italy. They photographed artists, actors, dancers, and athletes while pushing the medium in a more experimental direction. Wanda’s I + Cat (1932), a self-portrait superimposed with the face of a cat, became one of the most recognizable images of Italian Futurist photography. The Estorick Collection is now presenting the first major U.K. exhibition devoted to the sisters, a mix of studio portraits, commercial commissions, and avant-garde experiments. —Elena Clavarino
