Photobooks 1978-2005

Here’s a book that for the first time collects and catalogues all Gabriele Basilico’s photo books, from 1978 to 2006: over twenty years of career.

Every book is presented with its original cover, bibliographic data and a photo taken from the interiors. Page by page, photo by photo, the reader will discover the richness and variety of matters in Basilico’s photos: Milanese suburbs in the last Seventies, dancing halls in Emilia, industries, ports and finally Beirut in early Nineties and the new soul of Berlin.

This book is a useful way for scholars but also for simple lovers of good photography to make a point about the career of a photographer that has built our perception of contemporary landscape.

With an introduction by Italo Rota and a comment by Gabriele Basilico.
