Marocco 1971 collects Gabriele Basilico's photographs of a ten-thousand-kilometre journey across Morocco, a 72-page black-and-white photobook shot on fifteen rolls of film during the summer of 1971.
The images shift between socially engaged reportage, architectural studies of the imperial cities and portraits that carry whole lives in a glance — an apprenticeship in the making for a photographer not yet led purely by chance.
A decisive stage in Basilico's education as an image-maker.
