Faceless
by Claudio Cricca (signed)
Signed copy
This collection of haunting photographs was made at a series of Italian hospitals for the criminally insane by Bologna-born photographer Claudio Cricca. Cricca has contributed to The New York Times, National Geographic, The Herald Tribune, USA Today and Italian GQ.
Claudio Cricca’s work Faceless depicts individuals who have fallen into a gray space somewhere between a culture’s healthcare system and their penal policy, people who have been forgotten not only by society but also often by family and friends. His haunting images of the criminally insane depict these humans as playful, menacing, absurd, tortured, disoriented, stoic, angry; in short, with a full range of human emotions. Although his work humanizes these people, by design, it also distorts them. – Marcel Saba, Redux (foreword of book)
