TOURMADE IN ITALY - CGIL 100
Various contributors
Trolley Books
To mark the 100th anniversary of Italy's greatest workers' union, the CGIL, Made in Italy - CGIL 100 is an independent photographic survey of Italy today undertaken by four young prize-winning photographers. The demographic differences so starkly apparent at the time of the CGIL's formation have simply faded away, like a vibrant watercolour exposed to the sun. They have been replaced by a colourless homogeneity, a vagueness of purpose, even a decadence, in which chain stores are remarked upon for their garish use of colours.
Texts by Umberto Galimberti, Curzio Maltese, Said Abdel Khaleq. Photography by Massimo Berruti, Giancarlo Ceraudo, Emiliano Mancuso, Riccardo Scibetta and Mario Spada.
240 pages
Colour and black and white photographs
