"It was precisely by photographing and enlarging the surface of
the things around me that I sought to discover what was behind
those things." —Michelangelo Antonioni
With L’Avventura he piqued the world’s curiosity. With
La Notte and L’Eclisse, he mystified audiences and
broke hearts. With Red Desert, his first color picture,
he blurred all the lines between art, cinema, and still
photography. Continuing his creative explosion with Blow-Up,
Zabriskie Point, The Passenger, and The Identification of
a Woman, Michelangelo Antonioni cemented his reputation as
the most innovative and artistic filmmaker of his generation.
With a plethora of illustrations, drawn in part from Antonioni’s
own archives, this book explores his life and career from his
earliest documentaries to his latest collaborations.
