BIOGRAPHICAL CATALOG OF THE MODEM'S COVERS AUTHORS

36 Flavio Bonetti born in 1956 in Brescia, Italy, initiates his artistic researches about urban landscape in the begining of the 80’s. Since 2000 he uses photography to materialize scenes illustrating the contemporary condition of the human kind. His artificial and ludic still lifes take aim to warn us about the acurate depen- dence between contemporary society and merchandises. “ Fashion is the ritual which leads merchandises to be adored ” Walter Benjamin. Flavio Bonetti questions by immersing us into the strange world of Gulliver. He brings to light the artificial evolution of the world. Cover and dividers images of this edition of Favoris>Europe are taken from the masterwork he realized for the Il grande carro exhibition shown at the Monica de Cardenas Arte Contemporanea gallery.
