Francesco Jodice's Early Work 'Cartoline dagli altri spazi' Revisited
In 1994, at age 29, Francesco Jodice created 'Cartoline dagli altri spazi', his first major photographic series, capturing lesser-known spaces of Naples. The series includes the image 'Naples, #12', featuring two young girls in a vast white piazza. The girls, possibly twins, wear red dresses and similar hairstyles; one smiles, the other is serious. The photograph explores peripheral urban landscapes. The work was later published as a book. Marco Belpoliti and Anita Romanello discuss this series in an article on doppiozero.
