Gianluigi Colin: Streets Of Memory

Edited by Moreno Gentili. Essays by Arturo Carlo Quintavalle, Gianni Riotta, Matteo Collura, Lalla Romano and Francesco Durante.
Published by Charta

Jorge Luis Borges once said that “We are our memory, we are this dreamlike museum of shifting shapes.” Streets of Memory, created by Gianluigi Colin, is none other than the census of this universe of forms, reconstructed through performances in numerous cities: from Milan to Naples, from Rome to Buenos Aires. Photos, documents, letters and other small fragments from the sentimental sphere (but also memories hidden in the intangible reaches of the Internet) are transformed by the language of copy art from intimate shades of emotion into just as many new and extraordinary icons. What results is an archive of the signs of our society, of our truest identity--a prophetic portrayal of our existence.

Manufacturing the Present

Essays by Gillo Dorfles, Aldo Colonetti, Moreno Gentili, Tito Maniacco, Ignacio Ramonet and Arturo Carlo Quintavalle.
Published by Charta

Gianluigi Colin, artist and art director for Italy's leading newspaper, Corriere della Sera, lives at the meeting point of two semiotic systems: words and images. Colin takes us on a journey through photojournalistic imagery and pays homage to the value of reportage, the modern eye of our public consciousness. He leads us to reflect on the present, on the sorrow, the violence, and the horrors of war.
