Over the years, Carlo Orsi has met numerous writers, intellectuals, and art critics, including Jean Pierre Faye, Oriana Fallaci, Ettore Mo, Philippe Daverio, Salvatore Quasimodo, Federico Zeri, Gillo Dorfles, Arturo Schwarz, and many others. With his camera, he has captured them at different moments and in different places—from his studio to the intimacy of their homes, but also in scenes of everyday life. Whether the photographs are the result of a carefully composed studio session or spontaneous snapshots, they reveal Orsi’s remarkable ability to grasp and convey the character of each subject through the photographic image.
His archive thus becomes a highly valuable record of the postwar cultural and artistic world—in Italy and abroad—in which Orsi himself was deeply immersed.
