The light observer n.5

$27.00

The light observer is a semi-annual independent magazine based in Milan, but in English, which explores light in all its forms.
Not just photography or cinema, as one might mistakenly think, this one-of-a-kind magazine talks about light at 360 ° through in-depth articles and interviews, mixing emerging and famous artists, photographers, architects, scientists, designers.

It is a magazine for those who work every day with and alongside light, directing it and letting themselves be guided by the myriad of combinations that come out of it. 

"Light is such a fundamental actor of our lives. It deeply influences our feelings and perceptions. It's a subject of deep meaning and yet is part of our everyday life. In that sense it's a fruitful topic to explore."
