NICOLAS CONTENTA – The ITALY Series.


Nicolas Contenta grew up in the Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts.  With its dark and frigid winters, he took seasonal refuge in snowboarding, which led to a love for travel. 
Italy was his grandfather Americo's birthplace, and once there, Nico instantly fell in love with the country.  He found his passion for Italian cuisine, wine, language and the unique cultures, which change from region to region.  While living in Florence and Rome, Nicolas began to use photography as a way to illustrate his travels and capture the flavor of Italy.  Rather than capturing the headline events, Nicolas focuses on the common, day–to–day moments that define Italian culture. Therein lies the truth of Italy. Part global vagabond, part vigilant artist, wherever you find Nico today, he is surely planning his next trip, awaiting the next adventure...
