INVISIBLE

Throughout his sixty-year career, Franco Fontana has photographed what we do not see, managing to fix in the lens an image "other ", detached from reality, freed from the subject represented. His work on the geometry, proportions and composition allowed him to achieve levels a conceptual synthesis which is both his personal language and his formal manifestation. Invisible, 168-page volume with over 100 photographs, is the result of a careful exploration of the archives of the artist, who has brought to light unpublished photographs, ranging from research more experimental to the freest manifestations of his subjectivity, without neglecting the iconic images that made their author famous in the whole world. This album, composed with particular care, is aimed at those who wish to have an overview of the author's career, but also explore this inner space, beyond reality, devoted to interpretation suggestive, in search of the image in the making, that only visual sensitivity the photographer knows how to collect and translate into a unique and inimitable shot, so that the invisible suddenly becomes visible.
