Description from the seller
First 1991 edition of Stromboli, one of Claude Nori's most personal works, photographer, publisher and major figure in French photographic books.
Published in 1991 by Éditions Contrejour, a house founded by Claude Nori and essential in the history of French photographic publishing, this work is today relatively uncommon in its first edition.
Created following several stays by Claude Nori on the volcanic island at the end of the 1980s, Stromboli constitutes an intimate and poetic evocation of this mythical Mediterranean territory. The photographer blends travel, memory, landscapes, portraits and scenes of daily life, while echoing the cinematic imagination attached to the island and the famous Roberto Rossellini film with Ingrid Bergman.
Designed as a large-format photographic portfolio, the work adopts a deliberately sober layout that leaves full space to the images. The Mediterranean light, the volcano, the inhabitants and daily scenes compose a sensitive and autobiographical vision of Stromboli, characteristic of Claude Nori's oeuvre.
The book shows some obvious signs of use (for example, a bent corner) but remains in very good condition, as the attached photos show.
The book will be packed carefully and shipped with tracking.
Seller's Story
Almost thirty years ago I started collecting comics and "Para BD" (silkscreens, postcards, original drawings, etc.), initially somewhat more general, later especially focused on Jean-Pierre Gibrat and François Bourgeon (of whom I own a large collection).
Lately my attention is turning more and more toward art and photography books.
In 2024 I decided to sell part of this collection, and these are the items you can find here on Catawiki.
I have always taken great care of all the items in my collection, and I continue to do so when shipping my sold items, so that you as a buyer can be satisfied with your purchase.
Don't hesitate if you have questions for me; I always try to respond quickly.
Good auction!
