CHASING BEAUTY

The project.

Antonio Saba’s “Chasing Beauty”, curated by the famous art critique Vittorio Sgarbi, is a coffee table book featuring the Italian photographer’s most outstanding work of the past few years. Whatever Milan managed several photo shoot productions, offering creative support and attending every stage of the overall production process.

Producing a dream.

Supporting an artist who imagines a location and an atmosphere projected into an imaginary future is never easy. Especially in Italy, where architecture and environments do not suggest the year 3000. After a complex location scouting, we found Barceló Milan, a new hotel located in the up-and-coming financial district of the city.

Thanks to the location, styling, make-up and choice of props we managed to bring Antonio Saba’s dream to life.
