“Signs” by Nino Migliori

"Nino Migliori (born 1926) had an exhibition at the MEP a few years ago (but no catalogue): he is one of the pioneers of photographic experimentation. This large book presents the whole of his work: his humanist, neo-realist photographs; his reinterpretations of reality, between the representative image and photographic fantasy; and, from 1948, his experiments: he worked on the very material of photography, with oxidations (chemical interventions that bring out abstract forms), photograms, glass plates, pyrograms, lucigrams and all sorts of other innovations", says Marc Lenot.

“Nino Migliori (né en 1926) a eu il y a quelques années une exposition à la MEP (mais pas de catalogue) : il est un des pionniers de l’expérimentation photographique. Ce gros livre présente l’ensemble de son travail : ses photographies humanistes, néo-réalistes ; ses réinterprétations du réel, entre image représentative et fantaisie photographique ; et, dès 1948, ses expérimentations : il travaille la matière même de la photographie, avec des oxydations (interventions chimiques faisant émerger des formes abstraites), des photogrammes, des clichés-verre, des pyrogrammes, des lucigrammes et toutes sortes d’autres innovations”, dixit Marc Lenot.
