Synopsis
This book allows the reader to travel with Claudio Parmiggiani along the lanes of memory, comparing his art to photographs taken by Paul Strand in 1953 of his native village Luzzara. In "Caption", the introduction to this fascinating publication, Parmigigiani recounts his memories, in an evocative poetic prose: 'guided solely by my awareness of a genuine connection between the images of my work and those in the book, I began to compare them, unmindful of order or chronology, just going with the flow. I held each picture against the light, as though seeking a hidden watermark, until at last the inner light of each was found mirrored in the other.'

Cartonato. Condition: fine. Testo Italiano, Inglese e Francese. Torino, 2008; cartonato, pp. 116, ill. b/n e col., cm 23x28,5. Un percorso a ritroso nel tempo, fino ad arrivare agli anni cinquanta del Novecento, quando il fotografo Paul Strand giunge a Luzzara, dove Claudio Parmiggiani è nato, per scattare fotografie che documentano la vita del paese, gli scorci, i volti, i mestieri. Nella Didascalia Parmiggiani racconta con prosa poetica ed evocativa i suoi ricordi e spiega: "unicamente in ragione di una loro autentica comunione, senza alcun ordine né cronologia, come materia fluente, ho così accostato immagini di mie opere nate nel tempo, ad altre di quel libro, osservandole controluce, in filigrana, fino ad intravedere riflessa nel fondo di ognuna la luce dell'altra".

Pub Year 2008, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> In Incipit Book, Claudio Parmiggiani explores his ancestral heritage, reflecting on his roots in German-speaking regions and the cultural tapestry woven through his family's history in Mantova and Parma. The narrative unfolds a rich tapestry of memories and ideologies, with a particular focus on his grandfather, who clandestinely wore a small hammer and sickle under his jacket during the fascist regime. This emblem symbolised his unwavering faith, and his funeral was marked by a red flag, a cherished relic that he carried during workers' demonstrations.Parmiggiani recounts his grandfather's life as a foundry worker, labourer, and fisherman. He shares vivid memories of being adorned with necklaces made of live fish, illustrating a deep connection to nature and the land. The themes of mortality, memory, and legacy permeate his reflections, highlighting a lineage marked by two devastating wars and a future that seems bleak. His home, adorned with portraits of deceased relatives, serves as a gallery of the past?a reminder of the sacrifices and struggles endured by his ancestors.The author's childhood memories evoke a sense of nostalgia and the significance of place. Born in Luzzara, Parmiggiani recalls his experiences in a red house that functioned as a strategic centre for the Communist Party in the immediate post-war years. Nighttime meetings illuminated by oil lamps are depicted as a testament to the political fervour of the time. Through these personal and historical reflections, Incipit Book presents a profound exploration of ancestry, identity, and the enduring impact of past generations. (MP).
