VULGARE

Léo Fabrizio has been taking documentary photographs of Swiss fortified buildings and bunkers for over four years now. At first he shows a number of easy-to-spot buildings, situated next to streets or only partially camouflaged. His work then focuses on the relation between basically shaped buildings and their spectacular natural surrounding. He also searches for more impressive bunkers, concentrating on the way they were camouflaged and shaped so that they almost look like theatres built with typical Helvetian precision. Fabrizio’s aesthetism makes us take a fresh new look at bunkers and see it from a different angle, along with the symbolism of Swiss landscape and this country’s defences.
