With Italy, for Italy is not just a large book of photographs, but an initiative of great cultural and social importance. With this book, Lamborghini, one of the most prestigious Italian brands in the world, has decided to go beyond the traditional logic to take on a social role and play an active part in promoting its country during a time of global challenge. Twenty talented contemporary Italian photographers have been called upon to collaborate in the project, many famous, others emerging talents: each of them has succeeded in interpreting one of the twenty regions along with twenty Lamborghinis, from the past and present, in their own artistic style. And joining these artists is the great photographer Letizia Battaglia, who has been entrusted with a special interpretation of her beloved Palermo. The result is a journey conceived of as an act of love, the love of a company for its own country, translated into a fresco of 21 visions that succeed in exalting a single heritage of identity, steeped in art, history, natural and architectural beauty, and much more. An Italy that is also a land of tradition, excellence, creativity, aesthetic research and innovation, all features that are deeply embedded within the Lamborghini DNA. It is a book that entrusts culture and the art of photography with their highest and deepest value: that of transforming society through the breaking up of all previous expressive languages and the ability to imagine and inspire the future. The photographers involved in the project are: Letizia Battaglia (Palermo), Stefano Guindani (Sicily), Davide De Martis (Sardinia), Guido Taroni (Calabria), Gabriele Micalizzi (Puglia), Camilla Ferrari (Basilicata), Marco Casino (Campania), Roselena Ramistella (Molise), Valentina Sommariva (Abruzzo), Anna di Prospero (Lazio), Wolfango Spaccarelli (the Marche), Alessandro Cinque (Umbria), Gabriele Galimberti (Tuscany), Piero Gemelli (Emilia Romagna), Marco Valmarana (the Veneto), Mattia Balsamini (Friuli Venezia Giulia), Simone Bramante (Trentino Alto Adige), Vincenzo Grillo (Lombardy), Chiara Mirelli (Piedmont), Alberto Selvestrel (Liguria), Fulvio Bugani (Valle d'Aosta).

Biography of photographer Robert Frank by the author of the acclaimed James Brown biography The One
There is something to say about the elegance of the capitol city of Czech Republic, Prague. This photography book reflects the detail in its baroque architecture, gothic churches and the grand Charles Bridge. Another one of my favourite subjects to shoot in Prague were all of the classic cars on the other side of the Charles Bridge. Also across the bridge, I highly recommend visiting the Lennon Wall. It's covered in dynamic graffiti and lyrics from the Beatles. I've included photographs of this area. While visiting Prague, we attended a classical concert. The musicians and acoustics inside the church were unforgettable, I highly suggest attending a classical concert like this.
The years 1980 until 1984, a time we call the New York days, are the final unknown piece of the jigsaw puzzle that was Freddie Mercury's life. (Rock superstar and always dynamic front man of Queen).In fact, the movie Bohemian Rhapsody basically skipped over this important time of his life, moving from 1980 to 1984 in maybe fifteen to twenty seconds. My close friends Lee Nolan, Joe Scardilli, and John Murphy were eager to meet Freddie when he returned in 1981 after I had first met him in 1980. Freddie and his twenty-four-hour attendant and loyal friend, Peter Freestone, liked our group and wanted very much to be a part of it. At that time, many of New York City's residents and day-trippers from Long Island and New Jersey knew Queen's music but could not identify the band members. Freddie felt free and absolutely cherished this newly found and so-unavailable-in-Europe nonrecognition. He had recently grown a mustache, cut his hair short, wore jeans and tee shirts, and blended in perfectly with the gay culture in New York--we mostly all looked alike! Freddie loved being just "one of the boys."Unfortunately, John and Joe have passed on. Lee and I, however, continued the relationship beyond 1986 when we were invited several times to Freddie's beloved Garden Lodge in the heart of London. Lee was the constant photographer and has preserved a great many of these photos, which have never been seen prior to our book. One of the last things that Freddie repeated to Lee on our last visit, June 1991, was to "make these photos work for you, darling!" You will see wonderful photos of Freddie, off the stage and participating in the real world. You will see fun and excitement in his face at every turn of the page.Enjoy!Thor Arnold and Lee Nolan
