Guido Guidi è uno dei maggiori rappresentanti della fotografia italiana contemporanea. Negli anni '60, dopo aver studiato architettura allo IUAV di Venezia, decide di dedicarsi alla fotografia, in cui individua un mezzo immediato e diretto per indagare ciò che si trova ai margini dello sguardo.
L'interesse per la parola e la fotografia come medium porta Guido Guidi ad adottare un linguaggio vernacolare - come lui stesso lo definisce - per documentare le trasformazioni del paesaggio contemporaneo.
Influenzato dal Neorealismo, dalla Scuola italiana di paesaggio e dai Nuovi Topografi, Guido Guidi rivolge il suo obiettivo verso i luoghi periferici e gli spazi interstiziali, in cui le tracce umane, laddove presenti, testimoniano di quotidianità ordinarie e banali.

Guido Guidi est l'une des figures majeures de la photographie italienne contemporaine. Formé à l'architecture à l'Institut Universitaire d'Architecture de Venise, il s'est tourné vers la photographie dans les années 1960, en y découvrant un moyen direct, sobre et fidèle au réel pour interroger tout ce qui reste en marge du regard.
Très attentif à la parole et à la photographie en tant que médiums, Guido Guidi choisit un langage « vernaculaire », comme il le définit, pour documenter les transformations du paysage contemporain. Influencé par le cinéma néoréaliste, les Nouveaux Topographes et l'Ecole Italienne du Paysage, Guido Guidi a porté son attenti...
curated by Antonello Frongia 28x30cm, 96pp, 48 4-color photographs, with a short story by Vitaliano Trevisan and a note by Antonello Frongia. Graphic design by Leonardo Sonnoli. Published by Electa/Jarach Gallery, 2006 These forty-eight photographs by Guidi carry on a study of the Seventies, which defined domestic spaces as places of shadows and lights and the house as the dark room of existence. Guidi renews his "travel around my room", "interiorizing" landscape surfaces through a geographic, biographic and metaphoric meditation. The world itself is seen as a photograph, sensitive material animated by the light that runs through it. The author searches for the different qualities of light that changes colour on a wall or on a person's skin. He questions the palimpsest of signs and writings in a subwa...

The 11th edition of the Fotografia Europea international festival of photography promises to be one of the biggest and best yet, with a program of exhibitions, conferences, performances, educational initiatives, and other events taking place throughout the Municipality of Reggio Emilia in Northern Italy from May 6 through July 10, 2016.
The theme of Fotografia Europea 2016, “The Via Emilia. Roads, Journeys, Borders,” is focused on the topic of roads, starting from what the curators of the festival describe as “the major Roman road that runs ‘from the river to the sea’” and extending to “the byways of the world, the places of transit, and borders in today’s society.”

Communiqué de presse
Guido Guidi (né en 1941 à Cesena, à proximité de Ravenna) étudie au Corso Superiore di Disegno Industriale et à l’Istituto Universitario di Architettura di Venezia (IUAV). Après avoir expérimenté l’outil photographique, il s’y consacre entièrement et devient l’une des figures majeures de la photographie contemporaine italienne.
Dans sa maison de Ronta, case de départ ou source d’inspiration, croît une impressionnante archive. Pour nourrir son oeuvre, il puise à de multiples sources, celles de l’histoire de la peinture, de l’architecture, de la photographie. De l'architecture contemporaine à la peinture de la Renaissance en passant par le...
Guido Guidi (born in 1941, in Cesena, north-eastern Italy) had originally wanted to be an architect or a painter, but during his studies at the University of Venice he began to develop an interest in photography. By the mid-1960s he had devoted himself entirely to photography. Guidi directs his camera towards urban architecture, industrial landscapes, and periurban environments in an entirely original way. His approach is poetic and attentive, and could also be said to be descriptive in nature. His photographic work has given rise to a rich visual archive of the landscape of Italy, both natural and man-made. In 2013 Guido Guidi won the prestigious PixSea Oeuvre Award, resulting in his international breakthrough.

« Quand je photographie quelque chose, je suis cette chose...comme si je priais »
La Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson présente une importante exposition de Guido Guidi, figure majeure de la photographie contemporaine italienne, qui considère la photographie comme un prolongement du regard, une manière de vivre. Pour la première fois en France, les quarante ans de carrière du photographe, pionnier du renouveau de la photographie du territoire, sont retracés. Sur deux étages, les expérimentations en noir et blanc des années soixante-dix côtoient les séries couleur emblématiques telles que « In between cities », « A New map of Italy » ou « Preganziol ».

We each relate to work in our own personal way. We may be employed or self employed; we may have just entered the workforce and have specific goals or we may be enjoying well-earned retirement. Working to earn a living is a salient feature of bourgeois society. It defines social status and belonging, while unemployment and not working bears the menace of being ostracized. From its earliest beginnings, photography has captured how, where and under what conditions people work – not only by in-house photographers, adhering to the perspective and specifications of the management but also by freelance photographers with an open-ended, unfiltered approach to places of production and trade. In both content and motif, the exhibition “Arbeit/Labour” traces the transition from physical labour to automa...

Kaléidoscope d'Italie is a compilation of the work of 32 photographers which relates the history of Italian photography from the '50s to the present day. In bringing together several generations of photographers - selected for the importance of their photographic research, their sensibilities and their different approaches - this exhibition gives a broad view of Italian photographic culture with all the wealth that it has to offer.
The relationship between art and photography is a complex one and for the first decades of the period in question two different approaches existed side by side: one artistic, the other documentary. A constructive dialogue between them proved to be difficult as they did not share any common ground.
From the '60s onwards, international artistic influences began to gain in importance...
