Overview"""Dolomites Project 2010"" is a monograph on the work of Olivo Barbieri comprising ten large-format photographs. The project was planned and realised by Olivo Barbieri himself, who describes mountains as 'planned architecture'. The Dolomites have existed for the past 250 million years, and the material of which they are formed originated in the depths of the oceans. Barbieri interprets them as symbolic, moving forms, and in the line of the summits sees a 'story of the world seen upside-down'. 'Seascapes, great waterfalls, mountains and historic towns', declares Olivo Barbieri, 'are fragile theme parks. Entertainment has virtually re-placed the sublime. Views of megalopolises can, by size and consideration, compete with nature in the human imagination, in terms of importance'. Barbieri's work invites the observer to reflect on the environment and the ecological sustainability of these extraordinary examples of natural architecture."
