- Summary:
- A book of intimate portraits of 174 prominent personages of Brazilian photography. Alessandro "Ale" Ruaro, known for his black and white photos that draw the many layers of those who pose for his lens, applies, once again, the magic of turning faces into stories of many faces. Since 2017 Ruaro has been producing dense portraits of figures superlatives of the Brazilian photographic universe and forming a collection of admirable records of bow figures of this artistic expression that arrived in Brazil in January 1840 by the hands and enthusiasm of the Emperor D. Pedro II, himself a photographer and great supporter of the invention announced a few months earlier in France. Ale Ruaro pays tribute to the more than 180 years that photography has been helping to tell the history of this immense country and does so by producing an iconography, both diverse and pulsating, of the faces behind the many images that helped shape the image of this nation called Brazil. Includes portraits and brief biographies of Alex Fleming, Anna Kahn, Boris Kossoy, Claudia Andujar, Eder Chiodetto, Fernando Costa-Neto, Iatä Cannabrava, José Diniz, Luiz Braga, Miguel Rio Branco, Víctor Dragonetti Dragoʺ, and many more.
