Flip O Rama by Elliott Erwitt (9780970576842)

Description - Flip O Rama by Elliott Erwitt

In a bold attempt to capture the true essence of Italy and its people, de.Mo commissioned Elliott Erwitt, one of the wittiest and most talented of photographers, to document the Italian way of being "Italian". The results are extraordinary! From old men discussing soccer to famous personalities eating pasta, this one-of-a-kind creation showcases a heartwarming collection of delightful characters. The package is unique-a fascinating "book" that renders pre-conceived notions of what a photo-essay can be obsolete. Inside the sturdy acetate box, readers will find eighteen "flip" books. Each one consists of 40 photographs presenting a single animated story. Subjects include: Luciano Pavarotti with a white handkerchief A man eating spaghetti A priest at confession Giancarlo Giannini tasting wine (bad wine actually) An old woman in black, crying A man gesturing into a cell phone (!) A woman drinking espresso A juggler A self-portrait of Erwitt, working on this very project
