Manfredi Gioacchini is a renowned Photographer and Director known for his work in Europe and the United States. With a deep passion for the classical arts, he has found his creative expression in various forms of photography, including portraiture, interior, and documentary photography. Throughout his career, Gioacchini has developed a keen interest in documenting human actions concerning nature, emphasizing the importance of capturing the relationship between people and the environment.
Gioacchini has spent a significant amount of time in Africa, where he honed his skills and gained a profound understanding of using the camera to document reality. This experience has likely influenced his perspective and approach to photography, particularly in capturing the essence of human interactions with the natural world.
In 2016, Gioacchini published his first book titled "Portraits of Artists," which showcases the work of prominent ateliers from the vibrant Californian art scene. The book has garnered critical acclaim and recognition, leading to its inclusion in the permanent collections of prestigious institutions such as LACMA in Los Angeles, MoMA in New York, and the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris. This achievement demonstrates the significance and impact of Gioacchini's work within the art world.
In 2020, Gioacchini released his second book, "Floating Islands," a captivating portfolio of photographs aimed at raising awareness about the planet's last wilderness areas. Through his images, he seeks to highlight the beauty and fragility of these untouched natural landscapes, urging viewers to appreciate and protect them.
Currently, Gioacchini is actively collaborating with various international European and North American Museums, publications, galleries, and brands. This collaborative work allows him to share his artistic vision and message with a broader audience, further amplifying the importance of preserving nature and promoting environmental consciousness.
