The artistic current of futurism by Gibi Peluffo

The artistic current of Futurism was born in Italy around 1910. It was a period of great ferment due above all to new technological discoveries such as airplanes, radios, cars.

The world was no longer the same, everything became closer and above all faster. The futurists tried to represent this speed in their highly innovative works, invading all known fields of art: painting, sculpture, literature, theater, music, dance, photography, architecture, cinema and even gastronomy!

Their best known names were: Marinetti, Balla, Boccioni, Carrà and Farfa. The latter lived for many years in Savona, in Liguria. Savona is my hometown, the title of the “ESSEVU” portfolio derives from the SV car plate. I therefore wanted to represent my city in the futuristic way, that is, with moving scenes that produce streaks in order to give the sensation of speed. I started using very slow shutter speeds so that the subjects passing in front of the lens left colored streaks on the sensor but later I switched to using the most diverse techniques. From simple zooming during shooting, to shooting with very slow shutter speeds, to multiple shooting by taking a sharp photograph and repeating it from the same position and then merging the two images together. When the subjects on stage were still I proceeded to move the camera myself in various ways to obtain the desired effect. The photos that make up this portfolio are about a quarter of the total.

In 2010, 2011 and 2013 he returned to Central Africa as a photojournalist for the Discalced Carmelites of the Infant Jesus of Prague. In 2005 he founded “a & g reporters” and began the collaboration with the prestigious Italian photo journalistic agency LaPresse for which he follows the football soccer of Serie A teams (Sampdoria and Genoa), news and crime reports, when interested national, and the news on commission or autonomous proposal of the services.
