In 1959 Paolo Di Paolo is a 34-year-old photographer collaborating with the cultural weekly magazine <em>Il Mondo<\/em> directed by Mario Pannunzio, and the widely distributed magazine <em>Tempo<\/em>. Pier Paolo Pasolini is a promising 37-year-old writer who had published <em>The Best of Youth, The Street Kids <\/em>and<em> A Violent Life<\/em>. He is not yet a film director. In Italy, the &ldquo;economic miracle&rdquo; has just begun. The newspapers tend to offer to Italian families a microcosm of mythical characters as a diversion to the dullness and fear of war, emigration, and poverty. Arturo Tofanelli, editor in chief of the monthly <em>Successo<\/em> and the weekly <em>Tempo<\/em>, entrusts the two young men, Di Paolo and Pasolini, who did not know each other, to do a report on the Italian Summer Holidays that will be published by <em>Successo<\/em> magazine in three issues (July, August and September 1959). The writer and the photographer set off from Ventimiglia together, with the plan of travelling through the coasts of Italy to the south and climbing up to Trieste. But they have different visions. &ldquo;Pasolini was looking for a lost world of literary ghosts, an Italy that no longer existed,&rdquo; recalls Di Paolo. &ldquo;I was looking for an Italy that was looking to the future. I conceived the title The Long Road of Sand meaning the strenuous road traveled by Italians to reach well-being and holidays after the War.&rdquo; A complex, delicate partnership is born between Pasolini and Di Paolo, they will travel together only the first stage of this journey, but this experience would later be consolidated in mutual respect and trust.<\/p>\n<p>Text in English, German and Italian.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A unique atmospheric picture of post-war Italy in partly unpublished images by Paolo Di Paolo.
