Published for the exhibition in Brescia
Published for the first monographic show in Italy given to the New York master of street work, the volume gathers a wide body of pictures including Faces (2013-2024), portraits made as a figurative chronicle of cities around the world — from the United States to England, by way of Mexico, Greece and Colombia — that come out of a relation and a dialogue strongly sought.
Beside them stand the black-and-white pictures of the beginning (1968), those made in Japan with members of the Yakuza (1996-1999), in Haiti (1985-1995), in Europe between France (1994-2015), Ireland (1996-1997) and England (2000-2012), and above all in his native city, New York (1969-1995). Two unpublished works inspired by Raphael's Angel and Christ the Redeemer, held in the Pinacoteca Tosio Martinengo, close the volume.
