“Just as there are key moments in the family album, constituted by ceremonies, there are also less intense moments of everyday life,” wrote the artist Luigi Ghirri in 1991, “which are still depicted there because they document the unfolding of an existence.”⁠ This chronicling of both the mundane and the ceremonial defines Puglia, a photographic account of Ghirri’s relationship with the southern Italian region, featuring many previously unseen images. He captures the spectrum of life there, from a pile of bitter puntarelle sprouts drying in the sun to a young girl dressed in her frothy white confirmation gown on her way to the church. It’s all, as the subtitle tells us, tra albe e tramonti (“between sunrises and sunsets”).
