Alessandro Dobici
Alessandro Dobici was born and works in Rome.
He began his career as a portrait photographer at the age of 23. He has collaborated with the main titles of the Mondadori, RCS and Condé Nast publishing groups; has carried out important ADV projects for the advertising agencies Leagas Delaney, Armando Testa, Lorenzo Marini, Carat, Saatchi & Saatchi and FCB Italia. A immortalized prestigious artists who are part of the musical and entertainment jet set, from Benigni to Baglioni, passing by Fiorello, Eleonora Abbagnato, Raoul Bova, Sabrina Ferilli, Maria Grazie Cucinotta, Ultimo, to name a few.
Dobici’s investigation is essentially aimed at the individual. Studio portraits and characters set in nature. The subjects, isolated and torn from their social context, to direct attention to their most intimate characteristics. In the faces of those celebrities or anonymous characters, thanks to his introspective ability, he knows how to capture the moment, the movement, the expression in which experience has left the marks of the human condition, common to all of us. The great landscapes, with boundless views, and the urban glimpses, opposite environmental situations which, however, represent the habitat of man, are the other themes that Dobici tackles with singular aesthetic quality, and coherence of research.
“Sometimes you manage to steal an emotion even without being aware of who is in front of you, but I don’t like stealing, I like more knowing that there is a desire to open those drawers.”
