dido_about_01a

Dido Fontana, born in Italy, 1971. Looking at every kind of images, studying bodies and lifting weights. From fine Art to fashion, while his work may look spontaneous, every detail is carefully planned, resulting in an image technically desired in every aspect from the lighting to the outfit. Recently he has exhibited at the Biennal of Venice and at M.I.A. in Minneapolis along with the bad guys like Warhol, Rauschenberg, Dürer …and many others in the ‘The Art of Murder’ exhibition. Dido Fontana is the personal trainer of photography.
