Franco Fontana style

Franco Fontana, an artist who has made photography as his pure form of expression. He's among one of the main characters who most contributed to the theory of photography language in Italy and in all the rest of the world.

His eye is his lens, he read the reality and takes his geometric vision. Fontana is a esthete of the photography art, a player of imagination that uses it as an instrument to communicate outside world and it imposes his authority, he makes visions constantly balance between reality and thought.

I love his style: the geometry, colors, contrasts, cleaning, precision, harmony, forms, balances, composition, emotion... everything! Too much to say about it...

I had the pleasure to been at the exhibition dedicated to him and to the most important italian photographers of recent years:
UNO - Basil, Fontana, Ghirri, Jodice, Vaccari - Modena, Ex Sant'Agostino hospital from March 29 to 24 May 2009. view details > (italian)

An experience that filled my curiosity and stimulate me about one of my greatest passions.

Franco Fontana has influenced a lot my photography. I studied photography at school but it still remains a hobby for me. Some shot that I made I like to pay tribute to one of my favorite photographers!
