Synopsis

Olivo Barbieri is back with a new photographic project on the world's greatest waterfalls: from Victoria Falls (on the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe) to Iguazu (between Argentina and Brasil), from Khone Papeng (Laos/Cambodia) to Niagara Falls (Usa/Canada), The Waterfall Project presents a selection of massive water systems with their imposing, incessant energy flows, which - as usual - Barbieri portrays exclusively from an aerial perspective. Critic Walter Guadagnini writes in the introduction: "There is an evident technical expedient in this, and it is the choice to photograph from above, to place oneself in a privileged and anomalous condition. In the past, this expedient already gave rise to numerous readings, which range from acknowledging the historical roots of this perspective (going back all the way to Nadar's photographs from a hot-air balloon) up to the socio-political implications deriving from 9/11".
