Travelling through, it seemed completely abandoned. But then when I got to the top of the road and looked down, I noticed salad and onions planted&#8230;so there must have been someone there. It felt abandoned, shut off from the world, but I had stumbled upon life. [&#8230;] I then wanted to go to the cemetery. I found every burial plaque had been polished. I thought the flowers must be plastic, but when I went closer and touched them, they were fresh. And so I thought to myself: it took us half a day to get here, we didn\u2019t meet anyone along the way, everything seemed shut up, dead, but in fact there\u2019s life here. That gave me a strange feeling. These mountains with these huge holes in them&#8230;in my imagination I began to fill the holes with people: where were these people? And so something mysterious stirred within me, something magical, tragic, something I couldn\u2019t explain. In these photographs you can see that the houses are already losing something, it\u2019s as if their walls are turning to stone, becoming the mountains, [like they\u2019re] being engulfed. The village is crumbling away. The light I used in this series makes it look like the sun is corroding holes in the houses, when in fact it\u2019s the moon, and the photographs feel tinged with death.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>(Mario Giacomelli, in a video interview with E Castagna)<\/p>\n<p>This vision of the South is very different to the one in Giacomelli\u2019s series <em>Puglia<\/em>, where the overpopulation and poverty of Gargano in 1958 is palpable. It is also very different from the picturesque view of the South we find in Giacomelli\u2019s photographs of Scanno from his time there in 1957 and 1959. With Costabile\u2019s poem in mind, Giacomelli saw Calabria as a place of loss, caught between presence and absence. The houses engulfed by the mountain, the gouged-out rock at Pentedattilo, and people who seem to be mysteriously transfixed in a state of suspension; these are the protagonists of this series.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.archiviomariogiacomelli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Mario-Giacomelli-Il-canto-dei-nuovi-migranti-\u00a9-Rita-Giacomelli-3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2027\" src=\"https:\/\/www.archiviomariogiacomelli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Mario-Giacomelli-Il-canto-dei-nuovi-migranti-\u00a9-Rita-Giacomelli-3-300x226.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"719\" height=\"543\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.archiviomariogiacomelli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Mario-Giacomelli-Il-canto-dei-nuovi-migranti-\u00a9-Rita-Giacomelli-3-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.archiviomariogiacomelli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Mario-Giacomelli-Il-canto-dei-nuovi-migranti-\u00a9-Rita-Giacomelli-3-768x580.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.archiviomariogiacomelli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Mario-Giacomelli-Il-canto-dei-nuovi-migranti-\u00a9-Rita-Giacomelli-3-1024x773.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.archiviomariogiacomelli.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Mario-Giacomelli-Il-canto-dei-nuovi-migranti-\u00a9-Rita-Giacomelli-3.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 719px) 100vw, 719px\" \/><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Images This series is set in Calabria between 1984-5 and was inspired by Franco Costabile\u2019s poem, Il canto dei nuovi emigranti (The song of the new emigrants); the angry and embittered outpouring of people made &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.2 -
