Josh Robenstone 'Basta!' - artist edition book
Melbourne photographer Josh Robenstone's first book, BASTA!, captures scenes from Italy during the summer of 2011. From the coastal villages of the Amalfi Coast to the bustling cities of Rome and Milan, the photos reflect a fragmented vision of Italy, departing from traditional depictions. Familiar, romanticized imagery is reimagined with a sense of anonymity. Presented as a sequence, the images weave recurring motifs and symbols into an open-ended narrative, exploring the boundaries implied by the book's title. Divided into four sections, the series evolves, with each part introducing a new tone and atmosphere.
