Hardback. Condition: New. An adopted Roman, but born in Brazil in 1908 to Italian immigrant parents, Elio Luxardo (Sorocaba, 1908 - Milan, 1969) is perhaps the greatest representative of that generation of photographers who found themselves immersed in Italy in the 1930s, while clearly differentiating themselves from their colleagues of the time.A master craftsman of the darkroom, he arrived in Rome in 1932 and grew professionally during the period when the Cinecittà film studios were being developed, cultivating his talent by portraying the actors and actresses of the time. But it was in his studio, far from the film sets, that he brought his inventive flair to the highest level, confining his work to a fascinating and intense mise en scène, from which he was able to extract a brilliant core of images dedicated exclusively to nude photography.The book presents this intimate production of original photographs from the early 1930s, consisting of an unprecedented and engaging relationship between light and shadow. Fascinated by Greek and Roman sculpture, the male nude alternates admirably with the female nude, in a comparison that reveals the clash between two different identities: on the one hand, an involuntary process of observance of the dogmas of the time, and on the other, a tangible trace of his youthful spirit, nurtured in the lush and free atmosphere of Brazil.The man's strength and vigour are immediately apparent in the representation of the male nude, which, however, intersects perfectly with the elusive eroticism of the female nude, a woman's body far removed from the rhetoric of "home, country, family" and the icon of the "angel of the hearth". This existential double game meant that his nude photographs, which did not fully comply with the canons of his time and those of the following decades, disappeared. His original, vigorous and seductive images have now finally re-emerged, finding light and visibility in a significant tribute to the artist.Texts by Nicola Del Roscio, Enrico Praloran and Giuseppe Vanzella, Federica Muzzarelli, Davide Pellicciari and Carlotta SpinelliText in English and Italian.…

Ammaliato dalla scultura greca e romana, il nudo maschile si alterna mirabilmente con quello femminile, in una comparazione dove si legge lo scontro tra due diverse identità: da una parte un involontario processo di osservanza dei dogmi dell'epoca, dall'altra una traccia tangibile del suo spirito giovanile, cresciuto nella rigogliosa e libera atmosfera brasiliana.

Couverture rigide. Condition: Neuf. Dust Jacket Condition: Neuf. Edition originale. LO SPECCHIO FEDELE Storia della fotografia a Treviso 1839-2009 di Giuseppe Vanzella DEVANZIS Editrice, Treviso 2009 Bella legatura cartonata di cm. 31 x 25, 279 pagine, con 202+44 tavole in quadricomia. Costo ? 60,00 ISBN 978-88-95735-03-0 Basilare saggio su 170 anni di fotografia nella città di Treviso, costruito attorno all'arco temporale di assoluto livello nazionale compreso tra l'attività di Giuseppe Ferretto (1865-1872) e l'importante mostra di Venezia "L'insistenza dello sguardo" (1989) a cui parteciparono ben 5 fotografi trevigiani. Lo studio di Giuseppe Vanzella vede la luce dopo 8 anni di precise ricerche storiche in biblioteche, archivi e collezioni pubbliche e private d'Italia. Tutte le informazioni sui fotografi, le tecniche, i luoghi e le immagini, sono racchiuse in un prezioso volume, riccamente illustrato con fotografie per lo più inedite, che resterà per molti anni un punto di riferimento bibliografico sull'utilizzo della fotografia come medium documentario e artistico. Aumentato di una cronologia storica sui fatti fotografici, di una ponderosa bibliografia ragionata relativa ad opere illustrate da fotografie sulla città di Treviso, o arricchite da immagini di fotografi trevigiani e di un breve glossario delle tecniche fotografiche di cui si parla nel volume. Come afferma Alberto Prandi autore della prefazione: "Lo specchio fedele. Difficile immaginare titolo più appropriato, invitante e intrigante. Difficile sottrarsi al gioco accattivante che propone. Specchio fedele, è l'immagine ingenua che si ebbe della fotografia, specchio fedele è l'idea che si coltiva del documento probante, specchio fedele è la nozione che si desidera governi la cronaca veritiera, specchio fedele è l'aspettativa che si pone nel lavoro di ricerca storica (.) Difficile instillare con il breve testo d'una titolazione, una rappresentazione capace di attestare la passione dichiarata, gli interessi vivi e da lungo tempo coltivati con trasporto dall'autore, se non in un titolo che è il riverbero di chi ne è dedito, e al tempo stesso, la metafora dell'oggetto della propria passione: della fotografia". L'autore: Giuseppe Vanzella Giuseppe Vanzella (Sydney 1952) si occupa di fotografia dal 1980, sia come collezionista che come storico. Con i suoi materiali originali ha contribuito a differenti esposizioni quali, tra le altre, Paesaggio Mediterraneo (Expo Universale di Siviglia - 1992) e I chiari di luna di Carlo Naya nella collezione Vanzella (CRAF - Spilimbergo 1995). Parlando di fotografia storica e contemporanea ha collaborato con diverse riviste come Zoom, Fotostorica, Immagine e Cultura, Arte Navale, Yact in Venice e Gente di Fotografia. Ha curato alcune mostre su Robert Mac Pherson, Antonio Beato, Robert Rive, Enzo Sellerio, Elio Ciol ed altri autori, trattando sempre particolari momenti della fotografia italiana. Altre mostre (con i relativi cataloghi) sono state Padova. Fotografi e Fotografia nell'Ottocento (Padova 1997), Fotografi a Palermo 1865-1900 (Palermo 2002) e Venezia agli albori della fotografia (Treviso 2008). Del 2005 è il suo testo Sicilia Mitica Arcadia. Von Gloeden e la "Scuola" di Taormina (Gente di Fotografia, Palermo). Per ordinare il libro clicca qui Size: 310 X250 mm.…

An adopted Roman, but born in Brazil in 1908 to Italian immigrant parents, Elio Luxardo (Sorocaba, 1908 Milan, 1969) is perhaps the greatest representative of that generation of photographers who found themselves immersed in Italy in the 1930s, while clearly differentiating themselves from their colleagues of the time.A master craftsman of the darkroom, he arrived in Rome in 1932 and grew professionally during the period when the Cinecitta film studios were being developed, cultivating his talent by portraying the actors and actresses of the time. But it was in his studio, far from the film sets, that he brought his inventive flair to the highest level, confining his work to a fascinating and intense mise en scene, from which he was able to extract a brilliant core of images dedicated exclusively to nude photography.The book presents this intimate production of original photographs from the early 1930s, consisting of an unprecedented and engaging relationship between light and shadow. Fascinated by Greek and Roman sculpture, the male nude alternates admirably with the female nude, in a comparison that reveals the clash between two different identities: on the one hand, an involuntary process of observance of the dogmas of the time, and on the other, a tangible trace of his youthful spirit, nurtured in the lush and free atmosphere of Brazil.The mans strength and vigour are immediately apparent in the representation of the male nude, which, however, intersects perfectly with the elusive eroticism of the female nude, a womans body far removed from the rhetoric of home, country, family and the icon of the angel of the hearth. This existential double game meant that his nude photographs, which did not fully comply with the canons of his time and those of the following decades, disappeared. His original, vigorous and seductive images have now finally re-emerged, finding light and visibility in a significant tribute to the artist.Texts by Nicola Del Roscio, Enrico Praloran and Giuseppe Vanzella, Federica Muzzarelli, Davide Pellicciari and Carlotta SpinelliText in English and Italian.
