Edoardo Montaina

Edoardo Montaina is one of Italy’s foremost photographers. Author of some renowned photographic books in which he interprets some of the most important works of art and architecture in Italy, Montaina’s creative vision has mostly been expressed through high-profile industrial and corporate photography commissioned by global companies operating in a wide range of sectors: services, constructions, aerospace, defence, transport infrastructures, biotech, energy and shipbuilding. His trademark style - the ability to focus on a single detail and project it into a different time and place - makes it possible to recreate an original and unique vision of reality, modelled on an inspired balance of shape and colour.

Thanks to his ability to translate new and affirmed brands into a unique and distinctive style, Montaina’s work is an essential component of the corporate identity of institutions and global corporations, notably: Presidency of the Italian Republic, Ferrari, Finmeccanica, Ford, Fiat, Eni, Agusta, Fincantieri, Telecom Italia. Further, Montaina collaborated with the Italian fashion legend Roberto Capucci, for whom he created the photographic book “Capucci al Teatro Farnese di Parma”. He also worked with large television networks - Sky, Rai Radiotelevisione Italiana, Rti (Mediaset), LA 7 and the German Zdf - as well as top international advertising agencies such as J.W. Thompson, Saatchi & Saatchi and Young & Rubicam. He is a frequent lecturer at the Federation of European Photographers, and he received promotion from Kodak when they included him among the outstanding photographers in the field of artistic interpretation in industrial photography.
