Description: The film 'Il deserto rosso' ('The Red Desert') by Michelangelo Antonioni, produced in the industrial region around Ravenna in 1964, is one of the key works in film history. Thanks to the innovative color design, the work holds a lot of connecting points for filmmakers, artists and photographers. This is also reflected in the book with over 30 participants, who are reacting to Il deserto rosso with the means of the photographic series in their current work. There is reference to scenic and urban moments in relation to the local situation around Ravenna. Approaches to color analysis, which reflect the narrative structure in photography and film, and those that enlighten atmospheric attitudes - citing the period's atmosphere - from a contemporary perspective are likewise visualized.
