Guido Guidi (photographer)

Guido Guidi (born 1941)[1] is an Italian photographer, born in Cesena, Italy.[2] His work, spanning over more than 40 years, has focused in particular on rural and suburban geographies in Italy and Europe.[3] He photographs places that are normally overlooked.[1] His published works include In Between Cities,[4] Guardando a Est,[5] A New Map of Italy [6] and Veramente.[7]

Life and work

"Guidi was a leading voice in the resurgence of Italian photography of the 1970s and 1980s".[1] "Since then, working mostly in colour with a large-format camera, he has patiently returned to the same places — his native Romagna and the area around Venice — documenting the shift from a rural to a post-industrial landscape."[1]
