Background information
"The photographic volume 'Palermo Panorama' by Mauro D’AGATI is his love letter to his beloved hometown, a raw portrait that shows Palermo’s charm and grit in equal measure.
Content
The photo book 'Palermo Panorama' by Mauro D’AGATI comprises thirteen chapters, each dedicated to a distinct series, which all grew organically over time to form a complex picture of the city. Here among others are his very first photos, black-and-white street portraits taken while still a student; the waste-littered Termini Beach, a summer destination for the people of Palermo’s suburbs; the abandoned and neglected Vucciria neighborhood; portraits of wedding photographers and singers at local music festivals; the Capuchin Catacombs; and transvestites on Via Roma near Palermo’s central station. Regardless of his subject, he portrays Palermo’s resilient characters and crumbling beauty with compassion and without judgment." (© Steidl Verlag, 2023)
