In the spring of 2015, world-renowned photographer Joel Meyerowitz spent time in Giorgio Morandi’s studio at 36 Via Fondazza in Bologna. The simple rooms where Morandi painted are filled with objects — vases, tins, shells, bottles, and jugs — arranged on shelves, sideboards, chests of drawers, and spilling onto the floor.

Morandi selected and arranged these items on makeshift tables to capture them, and the light that fell upon them, in oil, watercolor, and pencil, creating an elusive body of work that continues to inspire artists. Some fifty years after Morandi’s death, in the very same space, Meyerowitz engaged with Morandi’s surfaces and light, allowing the same shadows to fall. He handled each object with care, placing them one by one on Morandi’s marked tabletop.

Meyerowitz photographed every object in the studio, bestowing upon each a sense of individuality while making them his own 'Morandi’s Objects' is an essential publication for anyone interested in photography, still life, and the art of Giorgio Morandi.

Joel Meyerowitz (b. 1938) trained as a painter, but an afternoon spent with Robert Frank in the early 1960s changed his path. From that moment, he devoted himself to photography. Over the following decades, Meyerowitz mastered black-and-white photography and became a pioneer of color photography, playing a key role in its recognition as a legitimate art form. His images of New York streets and other American cities have become iconic in the history of photography. Widely regarded as one of the most important and influential street photographers, he is also the co-author of Bystander, the definitive work on the genre.
