Franco Fontana (Modena, 1933) is an Italian photographer, who is best known for his illuminating and enigmatic colour photographs of the landscape that reduce nature into linear elements. His extensive portfolio of landscapes, urban-scapes and experimentations with the Polaroid image all play with the illusive line between reality and unreality. For more than five decades he has been traveling the world, making visible the visual marvels he sees hiding before our very eyes. “What you see doesn’t exist, what exists is what you photograph” said Fontana.
