About the Ebook
L'Ospedale di Mombello toccò la cifra record di 3504 malati nel 1918.
In Italia la legge 180, portò al definitivo superamento degli ospedali psichiatrici
A Mombello questo processo è iniziato alla fine del 1996 e tutti i pazienti sono stati dismessi entro la fine del 1999.
Dal degrado si sono salvati Villa Crivelli, attuale sede dell' Istituto tecnico agrario, le palazzine che ospitano l' Istituto commerciale per periti aziendali e l'Ospedale " Corberi ", diventato ora una casa d' accoglienza per malati psichici gravi.
Gli altri edifici non godono invece di buona salute; le immagini di questo reportage si riferiscono ad essi, testimoni silenziosi di un passato doloroso.

About the Creator
I was born in Bologna in 1963 and live in Busto Arsizio (Italy). I took the first photographs as a boy but, only in the last four years, photography has become for me an important activity, both for the time spent, both for the satisfaction it gives me. The passion prompted me to create images ranging from portraits, reportage, urban landscapes and symbolic images; black and white, remain in my heart, therefore many of the shots you find in my books have no colors. I am fascinated by the exact forms, the geometry and the hard light. I don't pretend to describe the reality with my pictures, but I try to convey just the things I see, as I look at the time of capture.I hope to succeed, to the extent of my limited ability.
