Photographer's name stamp, signed, dated and handwritten numerical notes in pencil on the reverse. Before Franco Fontana began taking photographs, he worked as a decorator for a furniture showroom. In the 1960s, he developed his innovative visual language in colour photography, which is characterised by flat pictorial spaces and shimmering contours. In combination with the intensity of his colour constellations and emphatically simple compositions, he created abstractions that nevertheless do not appear artificial. subject to resale right Deutsch: Unique Polaroid SX-70 Time Zero 10,8 x 8,8 cm, in ausgezeichnetem Zustand.

(3.7 x 2.8 in. picture) Edition 1 of 1 Numbered, signed and dated in black ink with photographer's credit blindstamp on the white recto margin As well-known and unanimously known as a master of landscape, Franco Fontana has devoted just as much attention to the theme of the nude analysed in its most diverse forms. He has tackled it directly in works such as Piscine (Swimming Pools), he has made it appear in more far-reaching research such as Presenzassenza (Presence), he has elaborated it in collages, transfers, and manipulations in Polaroid, he has exalted it as a whole by making bodies dialogue with veils, fabrics, and surfaces, he has captured it in allusive details in Frammenti (Fragments). All this while maintaining a stylistic coherence in which saturated colours are a fundamental element.
