GILARDI THE PHOTOGRAPHER
https://www.fotoindustria.it/mostre/fototeca/
Ando Gilardi began taking photographs when he was very young, but it was at the end of the Second World War, spent fighting with the partisans, that he developed an awareness of the extraordinary documentary value of images produced with this technique. On behalf of an inter-Allied committee, he reproduced and collated wartime photographs so they could be used as evidence during the trials of Nazi and Fascist criminals. It marked the beginning of an engagement with the medium that lasted a lifetime. In the period that followed, in fact, Gilardi was keen to accompany the articles he wrote as a reporter for the daily newspaper L’Unità and the magazine Lavoro with pictures taken while gathering information and first-hand accounts for his pieces. Between 1950 and 1964, Gilardi travelled the length and breadth of Italy, from North to South, documenting the lives of workers and labourers where they worked, with their families and in labour disputes. His photographs visibly display the understanding he had with his subjects, who always collaborated with him to recount their lives in the most convincing way for “their” newspaper.
