The precision of the camera lens shows images of a city – one of the most populated metropolitan areas in the world – expanding and thinning away to incorporate the surrounding hillsides. An ever-present mist, the steep outline of the horizon and the light that evaporates from the illuminated roads create a backdrop for the city’s architectural landscape: the anonymous verticality of new tower blocks and the overcrowded horizontal lines of never ending suburbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eCharacteristically of Gabriele Basilico’s photographs, \u003cstrong\u003ethe outward portrayal of the city reveals its inner nature\u003c\/strong\u003e: without explicit references to any human presence – or perhaps precisely because none is portrayed – these photos evoke the community that created, inhabited and gave meaning to these places.
