Venice from the Skies

Riccardo Roiter Rigoni is a native of Venice, Italy, who has worked as a photographer since 2001. He has been a contributor to a range of books, magazines, and newspapers and is the author of the books, “Venezia Sensation” (2008), and “Venice Timeless Moments” (2012). He shot the world’s first photo of a mask over the Venetian sky. “Every photograph is like a bag full of letters with different recipients,” Rigoni says. “The photographer is only the postman.” Debora Gusson was born in Dolo (Veneto). She has given talks at conferences on the Venetian territory, notably on the topics of peasant traditions linked to seasonal cycles, studying the anthropological aspects and the link between ritualism and religion. Deborah collaborates with Riccardo Roiter Rigoni on many artistic projects aimed at cultural communication: together, they have written several articles and short essays, including 1600 anni di Venezia, un’idea di futuro published in L’ESDE and in Rivista di Affari Internazionali e Geopolitica ATLANTIS.
