Carlo Mollino. Photographs 1934-1973

Карло Моллино

Carlo Mollino was, among many other things, a photographer and a commentator on photography; Mollino himself placed photography in a privileged role in the pantheon of his interests. Mollino used photography as both a means of expression and an essential instrument for the documentation of his work and his daily life, producing works that were both classical and experimental, public and private. He was also an eloquent champion of photography as an art form, publishing Message from the Darkroom in 1949 a legendary photobook that was part history of photography, part technical manual and gloriously lavish for both functions.
