About the artist

Brachetti Peretti Ferdinando

Italy

Ferdinando Brachetti Peretti, born in Rome in 1960, is an entrepreneur and photographer whose work reveals a curious, detached gaze shaped by extensive personal experience. His images, collected during his travels, reflect his obsessive search to capture all that fascinates him, whether a New York building or a quartered animal. His style, which transfigures subjects with remarkable coherence, resists trends and appeals to a disinterested outsider. Brachetti Peretti’s recent exhibitions include the Venice Biennale (2011), a solo show at the Caylus Gallery in Madrid, and exhibitions at Galleria Forni in Bologna, MIA in Milan, and Macro in Rome (2012).
