Luigi Baldelli
Milano, MI, Italia
I have been a professional photographer since 1987.
In 1989 I started following the most important international events: the end of totalitarian regimes in the East of Europe, the revolution in Romania, Lebanon, The Gulf War, the war in former Yugoslavia, the crisis in Albania, the socio-political situation in the Middle East, wars and famine in Africa. My photo essays were published by the major Italian and foreign newspapers, and my photos have been in individual and collective exhibitions on journalistic photography, both in Italy and abroad. In 2006, 35 photographs taken in Afghanistan were used for the illustrated edition of “The Kite Runner”, a best selling title up to today in Italy, The Netherlands, Brazil, The U.S.A.
In 2008 48 more photographs taken in Afghanistan were used, instead, for the illustrated edition of “One thousand splendid suns”, published in Italy and the Netherlands.
