Hear from Lorenzo regarding his experience in sailing in the Mediterranean waters capturing moments that created this exhibition. Lorenzo Minoli has extensive experience in film and global photography, read his bio below:Born in Turin, Italy, Emmy Award-winning producer Lorenzo Minoli cultivated a love for photography as a law student. Upon graduation, he joined the staff of Istituto Geografico De Agostini, a specialty publisher of photography magazines and books. There he grew into a professional journalist and photographer; his reporting and essays were published in acclaimed Italian magazines (Atlante, Il Mondo, Grazia, Il Libro dell’Anno), while his photography—including a selection of portraits—appeared in national newspaper La Notte and was distributed by several photo agencies, including Grazia Neri.
Minoli’s photojournalism assignments brought him to Eastern Europe to document events surrounding the 10th anniversary of the invasion of Czechoslovakia by the USSR and the exploitation of oil and gas fields in Siberia. Within months of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, he mounted a noted photo exhibition recording its aftermath. Later, he organized the first and only global driving tour to cross Europe, the USSR and United States and produced a documentary about the historic project. Soon after the “Carnation Revolution,” Minoli reported on the non-violent overthrow of the Portuguese dictatorship by the country’s military.
After more than 15 years as a journalist and documentary producer, Lorenzo turned his attention to narrative filmmaking. He relocated to the United States and produced more than 50 hours of prime time television movies and miniseries, winning a Primetime Emmy and earning two more nominations along the way. He is also a recipient of the Christopher Award and several ACE awards. Minoli’s exhibition in Greenwich was so well received that he was asked to publish a book A Deep Breath marked a return to his passion for photography and portraits which uses black and white imagery to deliver emotions , and color when nature requires it. He is now living again in the US where he works as photographer (portraits ) and as fine art photographer. Loves to travel and loves to be involved in new “adventures” as long as they allow him to use his camera(s)
