Mario Giacomelli - Mario Giacomelli catalogue exposition Photographies musée Nicéphore Niépce - 1982-1984

catalogue in good condition, no tears or writing, some wear marks, see photos for details. Exhibition in Chalon-sur-Saone at the Musée Nicéphore Niépce on Mario Giacomelli from 4 May to 24 June 1984. Several testimonies appear in this catalogue, those of the mayor D.Perben, the curator P.Jay, the exhibitor Angelo Schwarz, and J.C Mougin for the text. Mario Giacomelli (1 August 1925 – 25 November 2000) was an Italian photographer and photojournalist in the genre of humanism. Giacomelli was part of the first showing of Italian photography in the United States when in 1957 the Unione Fotografica Milanese was invited to show Contemporary Italian Photography at the George Eastman House, in Rochester, New York, showcasing 26 photographers. He showed one of his first landscape photographs from a series which he started in 1954 and continued to expand until 2000. Its geometry and abstraction attracted attention. Giacomelli became one of the most successful Italian photographers in the international scene during the 1970s and 1980s; Nathan Lyons curated shows of his work in 1968 and 1969; then after being promoted by MoMA photography curator John Szarkowski in 1975 he was included in an exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum titled The Land organized by Bill Brandt and Mark Haworth-Booth. I Pretini (Little Priests) (1961-1963), a transcription of the everyday life of a group of young priests, resulted from his documentation of post-war Italian seminaries. Colissimo delivery
