Inhaltsangabe

This volume travels through the history and legend of the "paparazzi," a phenomenon born in Rome during the 1950s and '60s, when the city was considered "Hollywood on the Tiber River." Hastily captured shots of the protagonists of that season--the divas and stars of the silver screen and the denizens of the Via Veneto--make up Paparazzi, a riotous celebration of the glamorous underworld of celebrity photography, and the snapshot aesthetic it helped promote.

Photos by Tazio Secchiaroli, Marcello Geppetti, Elio Sorci, Ron Galella and many other prominent figures of the 1960s are featured alongside reproductions of the magazine pages where the images first appeared. Also included in this volume are contemporary images by artists such as Alison Jackson, Armin Linke and Ellen von Unwerth mobilizing the visual language of paparazzi photography, showing the legacy of this heroic era of the paparazzo.

From the 30s images of candid cameras to the Rome of the early sixties, with its myth of “Hollywood on the Tevere”, from the stolen shots of Anita Ekberg, Marilyn Monroe, Jackie Kennedy, Lady D up to Silvio Berlusconi, the repertoire collected in these pages show the transformation of the language used by paparazzi, offering new interpretations of a phenomenon that unites the history of society, communication and image.
