Palermo Panorama is Mauro D’Agati’s (born 1968) love letter to his beloved hometown, a raw portrait that shows Palermo’s charm and grit in equal measure. The book comprises 13 chapters, each dedicated to a distinct series, which all grew organically over time to form a complex picture of the city.
Divided between two parts, 'Outskirts' and 'Downtown', Napule Shot represents a cross section of life in Naples. Chapter by chapter Mauro D'Agati tells the story of the city through a variety of characters and locations - a music manager, local singers, weddings, police operations, the heart of the city centre and the degraded eastern zone of Naples and its inhabitants. His photographs show the youngsters living there, the drugs and the beauty.
