AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Dancing in Emilia - by Gabriele Basilico, Silvana Editoriale, Milan, 2013. Second edition (following the 1980 edition at Priuli & Verlucca). 120 pages. Text in English and Italian. 24.8 cm x 20.5 cm. Condition: excellent. very rare title!

A fascinating book, little known and worth reading. It is about a photographic report conducted in 1978 in the dance halls of the Emilia-Romagna region in Italy. The late 70s (wherever in Western countries) was a time marked by disco and nightclub fever. Gabriele Basilico offers a very Italian perspective where all generations come together to dance on Saturday evenings. The artist also dedicates space in the book to the decorations and furniture that are so characteristic of those years. A unique atmosphere emerges from this report.
