Distro - THE ITALIANS. 1964-1966 

Bruno Barbey 

In the early 1960s, Bruno Barbey crisscrossed Italy from North to South attempting to capture the spirit of the nation. These images appear here "as if from a long sleep", imbued with the mythology of the place.

"The Italians" is an evocative collection of Barbey's modern Comedia Dell'Arte of beggars, priests, nuns, carabinieri, prostitutes and mafiosi; archetypal figures whose exotic charms helped to make the films of Pasolini, Visconti and Fellini so popular.
