Text in English. "If photography has ever had an Italian interpreter, a dedicated artisan, a mate, a lover- he is certainly Gianni Berengo Gardin. This book is the most comprehensive collection of his images ever produced. Besides conversation with Goffredo Fofi and Frank Horvat, it contains a self-annotated bio-bibliography. The eleven chapters are introduced by Sandro Fusina, This immense volume accompanies a large exhibition which opened in Paris and later travelled to other European cities and the United States. Born in 1930, Gianni Berengo Gardin has devoted himself to photography from an early age. His pictures feature a deep humanity, tinged with irony, that has turned him into a significant recorder of contemporary society and the overall human condition. His work is collected in over 200 books, in numerous exhibitions and in international museums, including The Museum of Modern Art in New York." - updated from the publisher's web site. Includes 3 interviews of the photographer. Out of print. (NOTE: This is the English edition but published by Contrasto, not Thames & Hudson.).
