    Gold in Portfolio / Fine Art

From 2015 with the project "Forgotten Art-chitectures" I go in search of the hidden architectural beauty of Italian buildings in decline). The discovery of these hidden palaces attracts me, with a mix of melancholy and wonder, I feel the responsibility to give voice to their ancient forgotten pride as if they were silent entities in search of someone able to convey their lost pomp. I don't just document, but I always introduce, thanks to a careful use of composition and light, a careful fine art vision, giving the image the appearance of a painting.

Christian Basetti from Milan. Since 2015, he has been passionate about ancient decadent places, giving voice to these structures full of melancholy charm as if they were silent narcissistic creatures waiting for someone to express their greatness. Inspired by Caravaggio, he's creator of Forgotten Art-chitectures project, decayed places are not shot just with an usual limited documentary aspect, as many others do, but they are like painted fine art canvas aimed at aesthetics. Discoverer just about real places (not fake A.I)
