"Houses" is a post-post Katrina New Orleans photographic project started on september 2009.
The artist, with his 8x10 camera, decides to divide in quarters the city and to portray the different style houses, from the Shotgun to the Double-Gallery,using the same front view.
Every house has his own personality, that reflects the one of the people that live in.
The focus of the artist is to stir up the imagination about the daily life that is ridde by the front of the house.
Del Giudice considers everyone of this houses as a proud claim of presence from the owners that decided to don't go away, to don't leave theyr city.

Houses

                                                              Any Day, Every Day

The relationship between us and the surrounding space is inseparable. Space built by man for man influences every day our mood and the way to act. Many times our daily actions become increasingly automated, the vision of what surrounds us becomes simple act fragmented end in itself. Analyze the simple daily life and returning its intrinsic beauty is the task of art. The life and the space of others is the foundation of my research. Del Giudice, with a large format 8"X10" camera, portrays his generation in the time immediately after awakening, create compositions combining the protagonist of the portrait to the view from the window of his bedroom. These images are then placed in relation to the broader and symbolic views of the city where subjects portraits live.
