Gianluigi Colin. La fabbrica del presente

Gianluigi Colin is at a meeting point between two apparently different systems: words and images. His work is a journey into the world of representation, on the icons of our time. And it is made through the use of appropriating photojournalistic images of famous personalities as well as of major news events. In a new and remarkable narrative form, Colin leads us to reflect on the present, on the sorrow, on the violence, on the horrors of war. It is a journey through the images of our time, an homage to the value of reportage the modern eye of our consciousness. Thus, beneath the photo an icon is discovered, beneath the snapshot an archetype is revealed. Colin stops time; he superimposes forms; he joins the present with the past. And he teaches us to see.
