Luca Abbadati
A course by Luca Abbadati
Architect by training and self-taught photographer, Luca Abbadati is passionate about what he calls "telling in the void", that is, portraying places and spaces without a human component but full of stories to tell. He has dedicated one of his most emblematic projects to this genre of narrative photography, “Solo, Milano”, commissioned by Mondadori Portfolio during the lockdown.
His works, inspired both by the style of David Hockney or Edward Hopper and by the films of David Lynch and Wim Wenders, arise from the analysis of a territory and take shape thanks to an analytical research approach and the gaze of a designer.
