Ray Metzker’s images question the nature of the photograph and photographic “reality.” Through cropping, multiple imagery, and other formal inventions, his work explores options for transforming the vocabulary of the photograph. “Untitled” from 1969 illustrates the simple method of manipulating objective information through juxtaposition: two distinct women on the beach enter into a yin-yang

I read that a thousand years ago they traveled on horseback and in wagons. They were frequently richly dressed and dark in complexion with gold coins woven into their black hair. Romany Gypsies are England's oldest ethnic minority.

For more than twenty years, the American artist Zoe Leonard (born in 1961, in Liberty, New York) has been practicing the art of the contemplative journey and the perceptive gaze. She trawls through nature and culture, through the (urban) landscape and the world of museums, in search of signs that might give some insight into their contrasts, similarities and inter-relationships.

INTRODUÇÃO AO NEOREALISMOE' interessante ripercorrere brevemente la storia della parola "neorealismo", perché ci permette di cogliere due aspetti fondamentali della natura di questo movimento: lo stretto legame che esso ebbe con il cinema, e da cui trae origine il titolo e il taglio del presente lavoro, e la problematicità che ha accompagnato fino ad oggi questo movimento culturale. Infatti,

¿Se puede hablar de neorrealismo analizando la obra de Federico Patellani en los años inmediatamente posteriores a la segunda guerra mundial? ¿Se podría crear un paralelo con el movimiento cultural que movió y guió a muchos directores de cine italianos como Rossellini, De Sica Visconti, Castellani y Germi?

Una città, in quasi sessant’anni, subisce trasformazioni così profonde da renderla spesso irriconoscibile. Quando Mario De Biasi inizia la sua instancabile ‘ricognizione’ la guerra si è da poco conclusa, lasciando terribili ferite nel tessuto urbano, e sociale. Trascorre il tempo e Milano assume volti sempre diversi, e sempre fedeli alla sua realtà più autentica. Nell’intera storia

Between 1938 and 1941 Evans surreptitiously shot portraits of strangers in the New York subway, riding trains with a camera concealed under his coat, fitted with a shutter release running inside his sleeve.
