An eclectic photographer: Arrigo Orsi is an author who defies definition. He moves with ease from amateurism (by profession he had been a doctor of physiology) to total dedication to photography, from the classic reportage style of which 'Al bar' is an example, to the analysis of the details of nature as in 'Carcini'. But it is in his research into movement and graphisms that he expresses his desire to create images that enter into dialogue with kinetic art and abstraction.This lot is subject to Artists Resale Rights
