Guido Guidi’s investigation of the Carlo Scarpa’s Brion cemetery began in 1997 as a commission from the Canadian Centre for Architecture in Montreal and lasted ten years, yielding over 600 color photographs taken with an 8-by-10-inch Deardorff camera. This book, published by Hatie Cantz, is not only a summary of this work in 124 pictures but also a manifesto on Guidi’s approach to the photographic book as final tool of the photographer as storyteller: the layout of the sequence has been made by Guido Guidi himself with Leonardo Sonnoli.
The book has been designed by Leonardo Sonnoli with Anna Dalla Via at studio Tassinari/Vetta. The book size come from the 8-by-10-inch photos on a grid of 11-by-11 modules. Eleven is the number who Carlo Scarpa often used in his design.
