Una primavera difficile - A difficult spring

Photography, Urban landscape / Architecture, Digital, Photographic paper, 60x40x3cm, 2012
The image has been taken last April in Brescia in an old industrial area, now abandoned and awaiting recovery and transformation.
The photo is the first of a series by the same title, showing similar subjects in various urban contexts. The whole series has been taken at night hours, using the flash on short distance.
After the social-cultural revolution in Spring 1968, after the political – even if comparative – liberalization of the Peking Spring twenty years later, after the violent 2011 demands for a fairer and more democratic society of the Arabic Spring, what Spring awaits the young Europeans’ generation in a precarious society that seems not to plan for them any social, work and cultural role?
