Willem Dafoe > Luciano Ligabue > Maria Pia Calzone

"That" face.

The movies.
The icon.

Dafoe.

A complex character, but, finally, very easy to connect.

Shot @ Hotel Locarno, Roma



Luciano Ligabue


Rockstar, writer, film-maker.
Very reserved, almost shy, a little wary.

But today is a sunny day, a confortable afternoon.
We're all happy and everything is smooth.

But, let's face it: the cover shot come from the unique "click" of the light test shot.

A sincere glance, an unguarded moment.

Thanks Luciano.

Maria Pia Calzone


The very in-famous boss wife.

So tough in Gomorra
So tender, positive and lovely in real life.

Always beautiful, unforgettable.

È come sfogliare una enciclopedia della fotografia, guardare i tuoi scatti e osservarti interagire con le persone che rappresenti..


Mi ricordo una tua frase, per avere la foto di devi donare...
maestro..

Alessandro Burato ha detto...

Di fronte a soggetti cosi' iconici e gia' interpretati da molti in maniera conforme e codificata, sei riuscito a farci vedere il tuo ritratto, ogni volta. 3 soggetti diversi, 3 pretesti per un solo Thorimbert, inequivocabile. Grazie, mi serviva.
