Giampiero D’Angeli creates a vivid portait of Gabriele Basilico (Milan, 1944-2013). His activity, based on personal projects and manifold institutional commissions, focuses on the debate about the city and the contemporary landscape through both conceptual and aesthetical works. Moving from his Milan to France, from Beirut to Silicon Valley, from Genua to Moscow, Basilico tells about himself and his job in the background of these different scenarios. The photography comes out as a tool for representing what goes beyond what we can see: “guardare di più” (watching more), as he says. The landscape becomes an occasion for getting involved with the energy of a place, whose meaning is rebuilt by the photographer who recollects its endless and difficult fragments.
