ART NEEDS PEOPLE
Protest in front of the Piccolo Teatro Grassi, Milano, to ask politicians to support art during the pandemic. Young people, students, musicians and operators of the cultural sector (and photographers) together to ask for immediate intervention in support of theater, cinema and music. Art feeds us and will save us! (All frames taken with Fuji X100)

LIFT ME UP!
Waiting for another lockdown – fucking politicians! – I let myself be inspired by Róisín Murphy’s Take Her Up to Monto! It was a whimsical trip into the darkest bays of my mind, it was a trip without danger thanks to music… I didn’t want to maintain the focus… I was led by the rhythm… Shake, Shake, Shake … Snap! Until I rose.
(Session inspired by Charles Peterson’s grunge series; all frames taken with Olympus OM-D E-M5 + Zuiko 9mm f8 Fisheye)

WHAT MUSIC GAVE ME BACK
A selection of frames and memories by a gonzo sonic reporter… ENJOY… THE MUSIC!
CRISTIANO GODANO: BACK TO LIVE SHOWS… TO SAVE THE MUSIC
We have to work hard to get the music re-started after the pandemic tsunami. Cristiano Godano’s live show (a new book and CD presentation featuring Giancarlo Onorato in truth) at RIDE Festival in Milan was the right time to return to sharing music but also to seriously reflect on the future that awaits music and art: without an adequate support from politics, in fact, it will be very difficult to plan new events. Music feeds on live vibrations and cannot be reduced to an online streaming phenomenon. The prevailing carelessness can only be overcome close to the stage, experiencing again the magic exchange between the artist and his audience. No likes needed, just love, people, notes and… frames! The beat goes on!
SAM MILLAR
Some b&w portraits taken in Milan of Belfast crime writer and playwright Sam Millar. The whole photographic session was played on the balance between lights and shadows, as in a thriller. Thanks Sam, see you soon! (All frames taken at Libreria Linea d’ombra, January 29, 2020 with Olympus OM-D E-M5 + Zuiko 75mm f1.8)
BLACK LIVES MATTER
The photographer’s militant arm to support Black Lives Matter (Milan, June 2020)
