Landscape (from the 'Metamorfosi della terra' - 'Metamorphosis of the Land' series). 1960s/printed 1980s. Gelatin silver print on Agfa paper. 30 x 40 cm. Photographer's Mario Giacomelli /60019 Senigallia (Italia), Via Mastai, 24 - Tel. 62520 stamp, Presa di coscvienza sulla natura ... statement stamp and annotated in pencil/ink on the verso. Mario Giacomelli's series 'Metamorfosi della terra' (Metamorphisis of the Land) was taken between 1960 and 1980 at Monte Lago, Vallone and Arcevia and at Sant' Angelo di Senigallia between 1955 and 1968, from which the image offered here dates. This work is different from his other landscape series 'Presa di conscienza sulla natura' (On Being Aware of Nature) in that it shows the wounds inflicted on the land by labor or neglect. It is difficult to date the images precisely. Many images are taken from the air but also by land and by sea. A trip to Bilbao in the 1970s gave Giacomelli the idea to shoot from above. These images are not straightforward landscapes and often appear as abstract, graphic designs. – Corners slightly bumped, otherwise a strong print in very good condition. Lit.: Alistair Crawford. Mario Giacomelli London 2001, ill. plate 19, p. 378.
