Through careful cropping, unexpected camera angles, and by intensifying colors and contrast, Oliver Gagliani reduces the landscape to an abstract pattern. Like his teacher Minor White, Gagliani believed that his photographs found within their subjects an essential emotional truth, a shared humanity that would resonate with the viewer.
