SYNOPSIS
Since the mid-sixties, Berengo Gardin’s work has ranged from social investigation reportage (such as the historic investigation into the dramatic situation of mental asylums in Italy commissioned by Basaglia), to portraits, environmental description, architectural documentation and industrial photo. About him Celebrate his work for Olivetti and his images of Venice, “his true hometown”. His shots, for over sixty years, have told the stories of this city and its inhabitants.
“My work is closer to literature, to writing, to words, I do a bit what journalists do, tell stories”.
