Ferrante FERRANTI (b. 1960) Ruins of Santa Clara Church, Antigua Guatemala, 2002 Signed photographic print 40x60cm I published this photograph in my book L'esprit des ruines with the following commentary: The nave was deserted and I framed to harmonize the curve of the shadows with those of the collapsed vault. The little girl burst out of the crypt, rounded me, then flew away, fluttering her scarf, before leaving the stones inhabited by a breath. And I resonated with the following quote: "Today and tomorrow, a ruined church is and will be an empty tomb whose stone has shattered, rolled onto the grass, to the astonishment of passers-by. A tomb where the sun had been thought to be enclosed, where it rises, shattering the vaults, leaving beneath the cradles of the broken naves a great lesson in darkness." François Cali, The Church of Ruins Ferrante Ferranti is a photographer and writer. Trained as an architect, his Écritures de Lumière (Writings of Light) is inspired by his approach to travel, art and heritage. Born in Algeria in 1960 to a Sardinian mother and Sicilian father, Ferrante Ferranti qualified as an architect in Paris in 1985, before devoting himself to photography. For the past thirty-five years, Ferranti has been working with Dominique Fernandez, a member of the Académie Française, on a joint exploration of the Baroque and the different strata of civilization, his photos interacting with the writer's texts, from Sicily to St. Petersburg, from Syria to Bolivia. In 2000, he illustrated the reissue of Mère Méditerranée, published in 1952 and now a classic of travel literature. He has photographed some forty books on Italy and the Mediterranean (as well as Syria, Libya, Algeria and ancient Turkey), Russia, Bolivia, Portugal, Brazil and India. All his work bears witness to his interest in the meeting of civilizations.

From 2014 to 2021, he directed a photography reading workshop at Sciences Po Paris, and has taught at L'Université Catholique de l'Ouest in Angers since 2015. Official photographer of the CNSMDP since 2010, he was elected corresponding member of the Bordeaux Academy of Fine Arts in 2018. He has exhibited in Paris (Galerie Agathe Gaillard, Italian Cultural Institute, Maison Européenne de la Photographie) and in France; in the FNAC photo galleries (in France, Belgium and Spain France, Belgium and Spain, in Brazil); in Italy, Spain, Germany, Romania, Russia, Syria, India, Indonesia, Ecuador, Colombia and Bolivia, Portugal, Japan, El Salvador, Brazil and Mexico, Pakistan; in London, Oslo, Vilnius, Prague, Budapest, Zagreb, Algiers, Tunis, Havana, Antigua (Guatemala), Panama, San Jose (Costa Rica), Caracas and Montevideo.
