Description

Archival print cotton rag paper Image size: 27" x 40" inches with 5" each each side white The white is covered by a professional 5mm passe-partout Edition of 10. 

This striking black and white photograph captures an intriguing interplay between natural and man-made elements. In the foreground, a rugged stone wall cuts across the image, drawing a stark line between the textured snow to the left and the rough, rocky terrain to the right. The snow, with its rhythmic, undulating surface, contrasts sharply with the rugged, jagged rocks behind it, creating a dynamic tension. The stone wall serves as a silent testament to human intervention within this stark landscape, blending harmoniously yet assertively with its surroundings. The artist’s use of monochrome enhances the texture and form, allowing viewers to appreciate the intricate details and the balanced composition. This piece stands out for its masterful juxtaposition of soft and hard textures, natural and constructed forms, evoking contemplation on the relationship between nature and human presence.

This photo was shown at the exhibition "A Fatal Pass at the Wolfsonian FIU Museum in 2015". The Exhibition was part of Myth and Machine: The First World War in Visual Culture curated by Jon Mogul always at The FIU Wolfsonian Museum in Miami Beach FL -USA. The photos were taken on the Stelvio Pass in Italy and captured the visual remains of WW1 trenches.

Luca Artioli, A fatal pass, war remains emerging from the snow.

Presentation

Luca Artioli, an artist, poet and photographer recognized in Europe and around the world, has worked for years in the most vital artistic circles of world culture, such as La Scala Opera House in Milan, The Wolfsonian Museum in Miami during Art Basel, Hermès in Paris… Artioli has evolved over the years as an artist who is appreciated for both his skill with the camera as well as the pen. Luca Artioli was born in Milan but he has been living in Miami since 2008 (I guess it’s time to move…) In 2000, after receiving a master in photography, he left the world of finance to follow his special vocation for “light” and poetry. In few years Artioli has published a number of books with Mondadori, the key publishing house in Italy, some of them translated in many languages. The books of Artioli are notes of light rich in emotions and poetry. Artioli has had numerous photographic exhibitions around the world from Milan to Bombay, Dubai, Miami.
