Albertina d'Urso

Welcome to Compton

Compton is part of Los Angeles, is just half hour drive from Beverly Hills… but is so far from hip clubs and paparazzi: is a city made of gangs, violence, drugs, prostitution, blood and poverty. This project won the 2007 Canon Young Photographers Award and was exhibited all around Italy including in the "Grazia Neri Gallery" and "Forma, Centro Internazionale di Fotografia". Published in Vision Magazine.
