Chromotherapia

What if color could save us? In a gray world, where the clouds are gathering, this book invites you to a chromotherapia session. We'll treat you to lemon yellow, unlimited blue, bright red and sunny orange... Often disparaged, rarely taken seriously, color photography has nevertheless allowed artists to have a field day, get out their palette and paint the world. A number of artists have freed themselves from the medium's documentary status to explore the common roots of the image and the imaginary, flirting with the worlds of surrealism and pop. Maurizio Cattelan and Sam Stourdzé offer a rereading of the history of color photography through the twentieth century and the works of some fifteen artists who take us on a journey into vibrant, acidulous worlds.
