Di bestie e di animali

Synopsis of Di bestie e di animali

«Di bestie e di animali» is the photography book by Franco Marcoaldi and Ferdinando Scianna, published by Contrasto in hardback (224 pages, in Italian).

Ferdinando Scianna's photographs and Franco Marcoaldi's text turn pigs, dogs, sheep, fish, camels, cats and horses into «beasts»: creatures that in the immediacy of their being find their meaning and refuse to be tamed by human consciousness. The book proposes an animal world that is closed, complete and full.

Illustrated edition published in 2017, with text by Franco Marcoaldi and photographs by Ferdinando Scianna.

For photography enthusiasts and readers interested in the relationship between humans and the animal world.
