Gian Paolo Minelli
Ginevra, 6/10/1968
Lives and works in Buenos Aires (Argentina) and Chiasso (Switzerland).
For Minelli, photography is an instrument for investigating the people and places making up his world. He alternates within a twin-theme register: portrait/self-portrait and urban reality. Minelli has over the years and with the rigour of a scientific researcher traced out a sample of contemporary society in which ethics and aesthetics are closely linked, highlighting the typical contradictions and contrasts.
