He was one of the last true pioneers and certainly one of the great masters of twentieth-century photography" (Wim Wenders). "One of the greatest photographers to use colour from the 1970s: a true spirit of adventure animated this brilliant Italian artist, able to give body to a multitude of ideas, all far ahead of their time" (Martin Parr).
