AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Exceptionally signed copy on the title page by Fulvio Roiter (1926 - 2016), unique and unavailable in signed copies. 112 pages and approximately 80 black-and-white photographs printed full-page, outside the text, with texts in Italian by and from Paolo Morello. Paperback edition with a soft illustrated cover.

To view the photographic series in full screen, double-click on a photograph, then you can return to the standard display at any time.

Fulvio Roiter's photographic work makes him one of the most important Italian photographers of the twentieth century.
Since 1959, the renowned critic and historian of photography, Giuseppe Turroni, described him as a 'child prodigy' of Italian photography.
In 1982, Fulvio Roiter was included in the collection of Great Photographers, directed by Roméo Martinez, who was editor-in-chief of the Swiss photography magazine Camera.
- In 2009, an exhibition and a catalog book titled 'Dieci fotografi d’oro' (10 Golden Photographers) showcased this with Gabriele Basilico, Giovanni Berengo Gardin, Mario Cresci, Mimmo Jodice, Franco Fontana, Guido Guidi, and a few others.

In an autobiographical text, Fulvio Roiter recounts how in 1953, when he had not yet published anything, he took a train to Sicily almost without money to travel, borrowing bicycles here and there to explore the region and photograph. Similarly, the following year, he set out in the middle of winter to Umbria, first by train, then by bus, and finally by bicycle in the snow, which led to the very beautiful book 'Ombrie, terre de Saint François.' Fulvio Roiter, who became famous, continued his travels around the world with the same talent.
In the conclusion of her introductory text to this book, Naomi Rosenblum, the famous American historian of photography, emphasizes the harmonious synthesis of aesthetic principles and the values of humanism that Fulvio Roiter achieves in his work.

Book from my personal collection, in excellent condition (like new), carefully preserved. Shipping is very securely protected and international postal tracking is guaranteed. In case of multiple purchases, combined shipping is possible with a refund of any excess postal fees paid via Paypal.
