Publisher's Synopsis
A unique nighttime vision of the Venetian lagoon, between a theatrical Venice and the "cinematic" Marghera, is the subject for this new collection from Luca Campigotto. The photographer juxtaposes the familiar images of a "tourist's" Venice with a noirish perception of the Marghera zone, an industrial district of docks and commerce, rarely visited by outsiders. Campigotto is renowned in Italy for his landscape photography-here he treats landscapes as if they were massive theatre sets.
After a degree in history, Campigotto started his career as a photographer, dedicating himself to social photographic essays and to landscape photography. He has been exhibitioned in both Italy and abroad and his work is included in numerous private and public collections.
