Description from the seller

CITY SCAPES - Gabriele Basilico

1999 - Baldini & Castoldi

First edition

City Scapes is one of the most representative volumes of Gabriele Basilico's research on the contemporary urban landscape. In this 1999 edition, published by Baldini & Castoldi, the author presents a rigorous selection of black-and-white images dedicated to the great international cities.

Through an essential, precise, and analytical photographic language, Basilico presents a vision of the city as a complex organism, made up of architectures, empty spaces, and historical stratifications. The volume is today regarded as a reference text in architectural photography, highly regarded also in academic circles.

Gabriele Basilico (1944–2013) was one of the most important Italian photographers on an international level. An architect by training, he was able to combine design rigor with artistic sensibility, profoundly influencing the way cities are depicted in contemporary photography.

His works are part of the permanent collections of numerous international museums and foundations.
