Press Release
Mirko Angeli’s photographs capture moments of quiet intensity and undiscovered beauty. A city scene, full of incongruity, becomes charming and harmonious through Angeli’s lens. His use of the black-and-white-medium lends an air of nostalgia to his pictures, which distinguishes his work and creates a sense of timelessness. Angeli’s compositions often capture the viewer’s attention with their simple, recognizable scenes, drawing the viewer’s attention to unexpected textures, nuances of shadow and brilliant bits of light. Mirko Angeli is reminiscent of French photographer Doisneau in terms of his ability to transform ordinary scenes of human life into moments ripe with dramatic possibility. Mirko Angeli lives and works in Rimini, Italy where he says he is able to find the “daily poetry” which inspires his art.
