Black and White Tales, Print #49

The project is almost done and I decided to close a circle. This image was taken in the same place and with the same subject as the Black and White Tale #1. Around 35 years between the 2 images and a lot of similarities and differences! The image is a part of a project you can see here , about Giulianova harbor . . . See you next week for the conclusion of the project!

To express complex ideas we need complex formal languages. In visual arts one of the most important language is composition. In this week print I wonder why we moved from complex form of compositions to the banality of a “mandatory” rule of thirds… and I wonder also about some other things… It’s a long ranting, you are advised! lol . . . Until the next one…

A real summer t-storm with rain… better than a AI created fake sunny day. Sometime I just use film photography to document a moment with a medium that cannot be manipulate by AI to create a fake reality. But I’m an old dinosaur still thinking that ethic is essential and truth exists. . . . See you next time!

There is no reason to not have a culture when public libraries are free and open to everyone… at least if you understand what culture is and do not confuse it with shared ignorance. . . . See you next time.
