La vida continua. Le fotografie di Cuba di Francois Ollivier

Artobjects • Photography

S’intitola “La vida continua” l’interessante reportage del talentuoso fotografo francese Francois Ollivier, un diario di viaggio per immagini di Cuba, variopinto e genuino.

Con occhio attento e spiccata sensibilità, Ollivier è capace di cogliere l’anima più autentica dell’isola caraibica, catturata nei piccoli dettagli, i colori vivaci, l’allegria popolare, il mare cristallino, la polizia locale, l’architettura coloniale.

It’s Christmas but Cuba doesn’t care. It’s like nothing can disturb the stream of daily activities or the sound of the waves. But behind the quiet normality of existence, the extraordinary beauty of things, there’s something else. It’s my third trip here and I heard the same story dozens of times: cubans feel stuck, unable to move forward, like trapped in a natural paradise. This is what La vida continua is about: actions, humans and things are freezed but well alive because while people are patiently waiting for some change, life goes on.
