Ombra, che illumina. Lunario di Guido Guidi

"Lunario" is one of Guidi's last books. This is undoubtedly the artist's least characteristic work – an unusual project for a photographer of streets and sites of memory, of the outskirts and of domestic spaces. Here Guidi - a visual phenomenologist of the surroundings, the variations in the appearances of which he explores in precise intervals of time and with measured, shifting viewpoints – focusses on an 'extraterritorial' subject which he shot for thirty years, from 1968 to 1999: the Moon and its figures.
