Augusto De Luca, (Naples, 1 July 1955) is a photographer and performer. He has portrayed many famous personalities. He completed classical studies and graduated in law. He became a professional photographer in the mid-1970s. He dedicated himself to traditional photography and experimentation using various photographic materials. His style is characterized by particular attention to framing and to the minimal expressive units of the subject being framed. Images of clear realism are juxtaposed with others in which forms and signs, correlating, recall the lessons of metaphysics. He is known internationally and has exhibited in many Italian and foreign galleries. His photographs appear in public and private collections such as the International Polaroid Collection (USA), the National Library of Paris, the Municipal Photographic Archive of Rome, the National Gallery of Aesthetic Arts of China (Beijing), the Photographic Archive of the Archaeological Park of Pompeii, the Photographic Archive of the Archaeological Park of Pompeii, and the Museum of Photography of Charleroi (Belgium).
