À première vue, ce livre illustré semble présenter un méli-mélo de bâtiments inachevés très répandus, parfois non autorisés, qui marquent résolument le paysage aride du sud de l'Italie - sans lesquels il manquerait presque quelque chose. À y regarder de plus près, ces symboles de la stagnation donnent à réfléchir, ce qui est abordé dans ce livre : d'un point de vue anthropologique-culturel et socio-économique, en passant par l'architecture et l'esthétique, jusqu'aux fondements existentiels des projets de vie et à leur fragilité. Dans la plupart des cas, les histoires derrière les projets de construction ont été perdues à jamais. Animé par l'idée que les maisons et les gens vont de pair, l'auteur met toujours en scène quelqu'un, généralement du voisinage, devant ou à côté de la maison. Curiosité, colère ou simple mépris, pitié pour les propriétaires ou incompréhension face à l'échec des autorités de construction, Gabriel Mauron s'est entretenu avec chacun d'entre eux sur leur vision personnelle des monuments de l'abandon avec lesquels ils cohabitent, en quelque sorte.

Gabriel Mauron is a passionate self-taught photographer based in Switzerland. As a creative director, he has collaborated with many photographers, directors and creatives that were a great source of inspiration. His work deals with the way human beings adapt themselves to their environment and the direct impact this has on the landscape. To do so, he looks for circumstances when expectations and reality collide.
At first glance, this illustrated book appears to present a mishmash of the widespread, in some cases unauthorized, unfinished buildings that make a decidedly striking mark on the barren landscape of southern Italy – without which something would almost be missing. On closer inspection, these symbols of stagnation are thought-provoking, a fact that is addressed in this book: from an anthropological-cultural and socio-economic level, via architecture and esthetics, to the existential foundations of life plans and their fragility.
In most cases, the stories behind the building projects have been lost forever. Driven by the idea that houses and people belong together, the author always portrays someone, usually from the neighbourhood, in front of or next to it. Curiosity, anger or simple disregard, pity for the owners or incomprehension about the failure of the building authorities – Gabriel Mauron spoke with each of them about their personal view of the monuments of the abandoned with which they, in a sense, live together.
