JODICE. Palffy, Andras. Archivio Jodice: An Archive of Contemporary Art in the Historic Centre of Naples. Palffy Editions / Verlag Niggli. 2012 92883 For more than half a century, Italian photographer Mimmo JodiceÕs work has distilled the essence of Naples, the city where he was born in 1934. Whether he was chronicling urban decay or ancient Roman antiquities, his photosÑtaken in black and whiteÑinspire a timeless fascination. Now, in recognition of his influential career, a museum in central Naples that will house his archive is in its planning stages. Architecture students from European universities submitted designs for the building; this copiously illustrated book documents the top six submissions to the competition. Includes a wealth of maps, plans, renderings, elevations and texts by designers, architects and artists involved in the project. Also includes a selection of Jodice's photographs. 384 pp. Pap.
