Luigi Ghirri's photo book "Atlante" (Japanese translation: map book), a pioneer of color photography in Italy. Luigi Ghirri is regaining popularity both at home and abroad due to the reprint of "Kodachrome" published in 1978 and the "Photo Lecture" published by Misuzu Shobo. An artistic photographer who has a deep knowledge of art, architecture, music, etc., is obsessed with images, and continues to think through images. This book is a collection of works published in 1999, and is a unique book containing photographic plates of "Atlas" taken in the early 70's of Gilli's early era. Gilli said that he had enjoyed the image journey while looking at the map since he was a child. Starting with astrophotography, map symbols, place names, rivers, lakes, seas, deserts, and so on, the symbols and letters gradually disappear and arrive at abstract terrain, ending with an image that closely resembles the real world. "Photographs" that express the creativity of putting a map book in a photograph, the creativity of a series of stories, the technical ability of a photographer who realized vivid coloring and composition, and the fun of photography from a novel perspective. A book unique to "Luigi Ghirri, a photographer who thinks about images through."
