Badly Repaired Cars
by Ronni Campana
Photographs: Ronni Campana
Publisher: Hoxton Mini Press
72 pages
Year: 2016
ISBN: 978-1-910566-08-4
Price: 16 €
Comments: hardcover with tip-in image and foiled titling, 179 x 141mm, first edition
Badly Repaired Cars is a bright, bold and humorous documentation of some of the best (or worst) examples of DIY car repairs. Close up photographs of cars held together by tape, plastic and glue fill each frame and begin to take on the qualities of abstract art. A strip of duct tape across a broken headlight becomes powerfully graphic in form; green plastic hanging from a door divides the frame like a Rothko colour wash.
This is Book 2 in a series that celebrates the best in colourful, modern photography.
Born in Milan in 1987, photographer Ronni Campana specialises in photographing the world’s minute imperfections. By concentrating on details in his surrounding environment and framing contrasting colour and shapes he uncovers an abstract beauty in seemingly mundane objects. With the use of subtle humour and a bright flash he draws our attention to the wonderful flaws found in everyday life. This is his first book.
Selected as one of Martin Parr's best photo books of 2016.
