The NeoRealismo style became a call for economic justice as well as an artistic movement that influenced the modern world. The achievements of that movement are celebrated in this book with more than 200 illustrations, including exquisitely reproduced photographs and magazine images as well as film stills and posters. Together these images portray the seismic changes that took place throughout Italy during and after the war. The migration from south to north, the rural and urban poverty, and the desire to establish a national identity are all given expression through the photographers' lenses. Accompanying essays discuss the technological changes that transformed the country, trace the evolution of Neorealist cinema, and explore how writers became part of this revolution. Beautiful, raw, and free of artifice, these images and the people who created them ushered a unique and fascinating moment in modern art history. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Photography $z Italy $x History $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Street photography $z Italy $x History $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Photography, Artistic $x History $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Documentary photography $z Italy $x History $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Realism in art $v Exhibitions. 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Scorsese, Martin, $e writer of foreword. 700 1 $a Vigano, Enrica, $e editor. 710 2 $a Grey Art Gallery, $e hosting institution. 941 $a 2 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722061801.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213020456.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=274626822E9411E9B5CB1E4197128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
