Publisher's Synopsis
The book presents an unprecedented theme in the multifaceted photographic work of Giovanni Gastel: the portrait. About 200 portraits are on display, featuring the faces of many people from the worlds of culture, design, art, fashion, music, entertainment and politics that Gastel has encountered during his 40-year career. Faces of people who, as he writes, "have passed on something to me, taught me, touched my oul". Among them, Barack Obama, Roberto Bolle, Ettore Sottsass, Monica Bellucci, Ferruccio Ferragamo and many others.
