Space, Food, Armaments, Biological Sciences, Nuclear Energy, Medicine, Chemistry, Pharmaceuticals, Environment, Human Resources and Computers are some of the areas that form part of Europe Terminal, the photographic investigation begun by Moreno Gentili in 1992. The challenge was to get inside places of production that would not have been open to any photographer and often not even to an ordinary citizen. Europe Terminalis an antiromantic project, opposed to any kind of rhetoric, presenting a view of two parallel worlds: in one the wealth of the West increases, letting a dangerous relationship emerge between development and consumption; in the other we see the crosscontamination between technology and human life as a necessary element for survival, and even the bearer of a possible utopia. The book sets out to take a clearsighted, committed look at this ambivalence, at the relationship between destruction and hope generated by technology in the continent where it originated. Europe Terminal is the winner of the Mosaique International Prize for the Figurative Arts in Europe 2002, promoted by the CNA in Brussels and by the Ministry of Culture in Luxembourg.
