Synopsis
This body of work is a visual investigation of a series of objects, photographs, and memorabilia found in the house of an unknown Milanese chemist. The collection and the biographical notes of Giulia C., the enigmatic figure at the origin of this work, allow Italian photographer Andrea Ferrari to ponder the topic of a visual alphabet.
Combining documentaries and rearrangements, the photographic quest turns the assumed physical space of Giulia C.'s house into a mental one. Through collecting, objects gain a sort of camouflage and acquire an aura of enigma. Hidden meanings gain the upper hand over the actual objects.

hardcover. Condition: Perfetto (Mint). Prima edizione di 1000 es. 106 fotografie a colori di Andrea Ferrari. Testi in inglese e francese di Quentin Bajac e Laura Gasparini su spillato sciolto allegato al volume (pp. XVI) Design: Think Work Observe. 8vo. pp. 106 + XVI. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione di 1000 es. . "The pictures included in this envelope" is Andrea Ferrari's first major publication. The project was shortlisted for the European Publishers Award and later for the Kassel Dummy Award in 2013. The work is a visual investigation of a series of objects, photographs and memorabilia found in the house of an unknown Milanese chemist. The collection and the biographical notes of Giulia C., the enigmatic figure at the origin of this work, allow Andrea Ferrari to ponder the topic of a visual alphabet. As noted by Quentin Bajac in his piece on the book, "Andrea Ferrari surely believes (.) that reality needs to be read like hieroglyphics and that photographic language can also help in deciphering these symbols. Photography to him is a conscious, reflective practice of a system of signs and (.) is linked to semiology, the analysis of signs". "The pictures included in this envelope" è la prima pubblicazione di Andrea Ferrari. Il progetto è stato selezionato per l'European Publishers Award e in seguito per il Kassel Dummy Award nel 2013. Il lavoro è un'indagine visiva condotta su una serie di oggetti, fotografie e cimeli trovati nella casa di un chimico milanese sconosciuto. La collezione e le note biografiche di Giulia C., l'enigmatica figura all'origine di questo lavoro, permettono ad Andrea Ferrari di meditare sul tema di un alfabeto visivo. Come ha scritto Quentin Bajac nel suo pezzo: "Andrea Ferrari sicuramente crede (.) che la realtà debba essere letta come i geroglifici e che il linguaggio fotografico possa anche aiutare a decifrare questi simboli. La pratica di un sistema di segni e (.) è legata alla semiologia, l'analisi dei signi". Book. Seller Inventory # 0000000202834
