A "share very much" there is a genuine Matese


"Quote thousand" appropriatissimo is the title of a book published a few months ago, the Punctum publishing house, with photos of the photographer Francesco Fossa , and the writings of Paul Rumiz.
wonderful shots I have as their object the Matese.
"Quote thousand" is a book of photographs, with very few, measured and relevant words of Paul Rumiz, fails to describe the landscape in a surprising way, but especially the people of Matese. The Matese
told by the photographer is genuine, bluntly, without spectacular buildings in order to impress the observer. It 's pure, as pure air is breathe through that, and that hardly allows us to place it in Campania, less than 100 kilometers from Naples and the poison that afflicts.
The images tell the countryside, still untouched in some ways, with shots that emphasize the harshness, the particular features, colors, sounds, the stuff is made. But most of the images tell of a people, because only shaped by their homeland and in this symbiosis. Recount the daily routine of the locals.
the photos of Blackwater are, in fact, the shepherds, the few survivors of the evolution of jobs and the difficulties of a valuable work, but exhausting, and there are farmers. It is no coincidence, in my believe that there are boys. Why is the "face" of the Matese is old and wrinkled, is rough and shy, but fascinating, like caves, valleys, ravines, gorges, streams, paths that characterize it.
in the images are the traditional flavors.
The same photographer at the end of the text, would like to thank these people that opened the doors to be told: the Matese area is reserved by nature, but proud and proud. And the photographer is able to tell.
The authenticity of the photos, although skilfully reworked and apparently the computer to obtain the effects of greater impact and eloquence, is amazing.
's so true a photograph of Francis was leading Rumiz talking about neo-realism. And how to disagree.
