Franco Fontana was born in 1933 in Modena (Italy). From his early days in photography he opted for color and quickly became interested in the representation of the landscape, of which he became the undisputed master. By removing all superfluous elements from his images, he combines lines, shapes and colors with great economy of means, which allows him to reach a degree of abstraction similar to that of modern painting, and with extreme simplicity of form he composes abstract landscapes that gather two or three color zones.
