You are the Endrix of photography.\u201d<\/em> <strong>Randy Hansen<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWhen you get photographed by Cristina, it is as if she becomes a component of old band data. She really manages to remove the deep soul of the artist she is photographing\u201d<\/em> <strong>Dennis Greaves, Nine Below Zero.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wall Of Sound Editions is proud to present the work of<strong> Cristina Arrigoni<\/strong>\u00a0and her first book, <strong>The Sound of Hands.<\/strong>\u00a0It includes 60 photographs of &#8220;hands&#8221;, in color and in B \/ W, of musicians of the caliber of <strong>Johnny Winter<\/strong>, <strong>B.B. King<\/strong>, <strong>John Mayall<\/strong>, <strong>Jackson Browne<\/strong>, <strong>Wille Nile<\/strong>, <strong>Albert Lee<\/strong>,<strong> Charlie Musselwhite<\/strong>, <strong>Donovan<\/strong> and many others. The volume also includes portraits of each musician.<\/p>\n<p>Cristina&#8217;s works are very engaging and emotional. His passionate vision and his understanding of the music he loves and the people he creates are a welcome change of gear compared to the traditional portrait of musicians.\u00a0As<strong> Elliott Murphy<\/strong>, writes in the book, \u201chis photographs always manage to capture magically the true essence of a musician&#8217;s journey, both on and off stage. In his works there are simultaneously hyperrealism and a transcendent quality that, at least for me, shows it among the best rock photographers of our time. And what could be more essential than the hands of a musician, with whom we try to make love with steel?&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Cristina has very clear ideas about her mission as a photographer, which is to \u201cdiscover and turn the spotlight on great unknown musicians from all over the world, and to offer them visibility thanks to my images. I want to show something of them that will remain forever. I look for beauty wherever it is, even in the most difficult situations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cCristina is a visionary with the talent of knowing how to grasp the soul and the&#8221; heroic &#8220;quality of all that her gaze in grasping without mediation. She is capable of making a homeless man in New York City regal, and his hands destroyed and a drummer&#8217;s band say a lot about his passion, his motivations and his love for this life. Cristina has her own style and her greatness is directly proportional to her humility and grace.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><strong>Willie Nile<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>88 pages, paperback, 11x11in format, hardcover edition<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":25446,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[184,121],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-33311","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-current-exhibition-en","7":"product_cat-books","8":"pa_formato-11x11in","9":"pa_formato-28x28cm","11":"first","12":"instock","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wallofsoundgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/33311","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wallofsoundgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wallofsoundgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wallofsoundgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=33311"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wallofsoundgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25446"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wallofsoundgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33311"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wallofsoundgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=33311"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wallofsoundgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=33311"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wallofsoundgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=33311"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
