"In un primo momento, per sorprendere, la fotografia fotografa il notevole; ben presto però, essa decreta notevole ciò che fotografa."

(R. Barthes)

 

"La fotografia è il riconoscimento simultaneo, in una frazione di secondo, del significato di un evento." (Henri Cartier-Bresson)

 

"There is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept. "

(Ansel Adams)

 

"Of course, it's all luck!"

(Henri Cartier Bresson)

 

"Un centesimo di secondo qui, un centesimo di secondo là: anche a metterli tutti insieme non fanno che uno, due, forse tre secondi rubati all'eternità."

(Robert Doisneau)

 

"la migliore ottica di un fotografo sono le sue gambe"

(Henri Cartier Bresson)

 

"Per me fotografare è un grido, una liberazione. Non si tratta di affermare la propria originalità; è un modo di vivere."

(Henri Cartier Bresson)

 

"La fotografia non sa mentire, ma i bugiardi sanno fotografare".

(Lewis Hine)

It has been rather obvious that in order to be able to set the camera for artistic, scientific or political images, photographers have to have some concepts of art, science and politics: how else are they suppose dot be able to translate them into an image? There is no such thing as naïve, non-conceptual photography. A photograph is an image of concepts. And these concepts are clearly projected in Mario's works. These concepts that I have mentioned can even be felt to those who have very minimal understanding of photography and its philosophies. I invite you to browse his stream of works and feel the greatness of these concepts. What an experience and thank you Mario.
