"Incubi et Succubi" is a collection of works by Italian photographer Lele Saveri (1980-). Saveri began his photography career after photographing graffiti culture in Rome, and later moved to New York. While primarily working for publications like VICE and independent publishers, he is also known as a symbol of DIY publishing and underground culture since the 2000s, with his work at "The Newsstand" in the Brooklyn subway and the 8-Ball Zine Fair. This book, titled after the medieval European nightmare legend "Incubus/Succubus," is a series that traverses themes such as nightmares, religious rituals, death, masks, and the horrors of the night. The photographs, taken in various locations including the Sicilian festival "Festa dei Giudei," Rome, Milan, and New York, are more than just documents; they possess an unusual atmosphere that blends folklore and noise culture, spirituality and punk sensibilities. Amidst the rough grain and deep, dark monochrome, the anxieties and impulses lurking in the depths of the city and community emerge, making this a book that vividly reflects the sensibilities of 2000s indie culture.
