Biography
Born in Milan in 1952. He starts photographing during a trip in Scandinavia focusing his attention on reportage for fifteen years. Since Nineties he devotes himself to personal research and he begins to exhibit in solo exhibitions and collectives in Italy and Abroad.
His masters have been Giulio Confalonieri, one of the most significant designers, master of aesthetics and life; John Goodman, photographer, artist and great communicator.
His research is based on graphic composition (“Stazione Centrale”, “Fabbrica del Vapore”, “Ponti”) and the magic of light, as the series of images “Luna” (Moon – 1990,2007 and 2008), “Capodanno a Londra” (New Year’s Day in London), “Sabbia” (Sand), “NY” and “Alberi” (Trees).
Some works connect to the idea of time: the book “Ulivi” (Olive Trees), represents this theme on the basis of a whole year; in the book “999”, the trapped time explodes in 15 minutes of roars and flashes to announce the arriving of a new millennium. Other works connect to the idea of movement: the project “Corse” (Runs) where the artist uses movement to distract the photographic subject and to catch the naturalness; in the work “Alberi”, “Luci d’Artista” and others more, the movement is used to achieve a pictorial-metaphysical result.Big attention and interesting in the search of the expressiveness of the body are evident in the last series “Autoscatti” (Automatic releases), “Performance” and “Sogni” (Dreams).
