Fine Art nominee

As long as I can remember, I try to reduce landscape to its essential components, to its abstract form. The rarefaction of what we see is a process of the mind and the spirit which takes time and is difficult.What we want are the structures underneath, the subject is irrelevant. These structures underneath sustain reality. Eliminate the superfluous. Photography as any other medium can go beyond the representation of mere reality. It can bring into the visible the invisible that only art can see.

Luca IZZO. Born in 1977 in Sanremo (Italy). At thirty he will transfer to France, where he lives and works today.
Attracted to different art forms, through the years, he has tried to do then some of the features belonging to specific areas in his photographic experience. Starting in 2012, he undertook a continuous experimentation that led him to make images from the study of artistic structures of the twentieth, particularly influenced by cinema, painting and photography. Recently, he revisited some aspects of Italian Futurism.
