SPACE, LINE, COLOUR

A peculiar language marks out the work of Andrea Bertani, whose purpose is to unveil the details of modern architecture from which he extracts a portion of space, revealing lines and forms that visual perception would otherwise struggle to catch. It is not a simple trick entrusted to the photographic mean, but instead a choice reached by the author after an observation focused on the detail, which in its process of becoming usual, becomes something else, and which the use of pastel tonalities emphasizes, giving back a different awareness of space itself. Bertani offers a free approach in the search of dwelling forms, a new one in the way we relate to the city and in the way we assimilate in it through a more accurate viewfinder: not the whole but the detail, not space but colour, not chaos but silence.
