Bilingual edition (English and Italian) World-renowned director Luca Guadagnino and artist Alessio Bolzoni present an artfully curated sequence of unseen and iconic photographs and texts by Luigi Ghirri in this elegant volume. Produced on the occasion of Guadagnino and Bolzoni’s co-curated exhibition ‘ Luigi Ghirri, Felicità’, the books offers an idiosyncratic path through Ghirri’s works, moving from wry images of discarded magazine cuttings and details of materials to domestic spaces and images from Ghirri’s travels around his home country and beyond, saturated in colour and sunlight. These disparate works resonantly piece together various elements and themes in this singular artist’s practice. Three essays by Ghirri punctuate the book – ‘The Open Work’, ‘The Impossible Landscape’, and ‘House, Bridge, Gate’ – opening up new vistas of photography’s infinite potential among a distinctly personal selection of his work.
