Stefano Bianchi. Stracci

With his intelligently composed photographs of scrubbing cloths, Stefano Bianchi (1964) represents, with a lot of humor, the world in all its futility. A world where appearance and exaggerated selfesteem become primary through the purchase of luxury clothes. Rags and wastes become symbols of life’s shortness and passing time. As representations of the vanity of the modern world, they question the worth of material things and beautiful pictures.
