Alessandro — Arturo Russo — 89books

Arturo Russo builds Alessandro around the sustained presence of a single person, allowing portraiture to expand through everyday situations rather than relying on a definitive likeness. Intimacy, environment and repeated encounters gradually establish character while leaving room for ambiguity. Published by 89books, the book belongs to a personal, diaristic mode of portraiture in which the relationship between photographer and subject is visible in the pictures themselves. Alessandro emerges through continuity rather than explanation.
