SIGNED Paolo Roversi - Visionari [UNIQUE SIGNED COPY] - 2021

Exceptionally signed copy by Paolo Roversi (born 1947) on the front free endpaper, unattainable in a signed copy. 142 pages and 85 photographs in black and white and in colour, some double-page, with commentary by Francesco Piccolo including quotes from Paolo Roversi.

Of Italian origin, Paolo Roversi settled in Paris in 1973. Since then he has worked for prestigious magazines (Italian and French Vogue, Egoïste, Luncheon…) and his career is marked by collaboration with the greatest fashion designers.

From his apprenticeship years, the choice of the studio, the large-format camera and the Polaroid defined the photographer's working method and aesthetics, who successfully adapts to digital. His signature is recognizable above all: soft tones and sepia of black and white in daylight, density and depth of colors in the light of a torch. Over the years, Paolo Roversi seeks, invents his own photographic language, welcoming chance and accidents as opportunities to renew himself.

The greatest models have posed before his lens. They always pose with simplicity; their presence is intense. Each of his fashion photographs is a portrait. Paolo Roversi stands at once at the heart of the system and at a distance, far from the ephemeral currents of fashion. In search of beauty, he builds a singular body of work in which time has no hold.
