He arrived almost accidentally, in the early 60s, to the profession of photo reporter for an agency in Trieste (where he was born in 1937), he continues the profession in Milan, at the editorial unit of "L'Europeo", from 1973 up to the early 90s, from the Kippur war to Tangentopoli. In parallel he develops another kind of photography not coded by photo journalism, in order to tell the stories of things, places and people during the slow course of time: stories and mutations of the Italian landscape that the fast journalism, with its cracking pace, doesn't in fact get. When Italian newspapers invent the postmodern magazine in the form of weekly enclosures, he works for "D" of Repubblica as photo editor. Once he has ended this experience, he gets back to photography and takes back some of those themes already started for Repubblica: particularly the mutations of Milan where everything changes, from the skyline with skyscrapers to street furniture, while traffic, smog, stress, precariousness (felt) and quality of life never change, they instead get worst.
