The photographer Luigi Ghirri (1943-1992) was one of the most
significant Italian artists of the late twentieth century. This
volume - the first scholarly book-length publication on Ghirri to
appear in English - introduces his photographic and critical work
to a broader audience and positions Ghirri as a key voice within
global artistic debates. It breaks new ground by approaching
Ghirri's oeuvre from a wide range of interdisciplinary
perspectives, in order to take account of the breadth of his
interests, the variety of his projects and the far-reaching impact
of his work as a practitioner, writer, theorist and curator, both
in the field of photography and beyond. Drawing on different
approaches from disciplines including art history, theory of
photography, literary and cultural studies, architecture,
cartography, and place and landscape studies, the essays in the
volume show how Ghirri redefined contemporary photography and
helped shape the "spatial" or "landscape" turn in Italy and further
afield.
