EPISODE #3 AN ATTIC FULL OF TRAINS BY CARLOTTA DI LENARDO
19.01.2021 | LENGHT 50:51
The third episode is a journey into Alberto di Lenardo Works: “An Attic Full of Trains”by Carlotta di Lenardo, published by Mack Books (2020). “One day during a family lunch he revealed to Carlotta di Lenardo, another of his not very secret passions – his enduring love for photography – and shared with her his archive of more than 8,000 photographs: a body of vernacular work capturing over half a century of life in vivid colour.” Alberto's work reminds us of the typical scenarios of Italian films: nuance, shades and sounds alternate between the most important soundtracks of our bel paese.
