‘Basta il Colore’ photography project
We grew up in a family that taught us respect and trust in people, where money never defined value. Do not misunderstand us: we never saw a penny wasted, but we never felt the need to become rich through money. Do you know when we felt rich? When we saw this little idea of ours grow, thanks to the support of many people who, like us, decided that it does not take many words: simply ‘Basta il colore’ to say no to violence, bullying and homophobia.
First and foremost, we therefore wish to thank Marco Bizzotto for his invaluable photographs and the time he devoted to this project: before being a good photographer, he is a good person.
We also sincerely thank the city of Bassano del Grappa and its institutions, represented by Elisa Bittante, Alessandro Fabris and Stefania Fochesato for ‘Città della Speranza’, who were always available while this work took shape.
We would also like to thank the entire basketball team, the project’s undisputed, enthusiastic and courageous stars, and give particular recognition to the leadership of Alessandro Bellotti and Umberto, who encouraged and supported us,
We wish to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who took this project into their hands, worked on it and shaped it, each bringing their own contribution: Serena Marcon, Fabiana Lupo, Loris Fostari, Nicola Cel, Laura Brustolin, Pier Paolo Longo, Emiliano Rattin, Mattia Bindella, Renato Gnesotto, Roberto Cortese, Nico Rossi, Carmen Dal Santo, Benedetta Sammartini, Silvia Scomazzon, Luca Bizzotto, Elvis Baggio and Coffee. Without your work, we would have achieved very little.
Finally, we must thank the people and businesses who, after hearing about our project, not only joined and supported us but stressed that, especially at times like these, we need to pay attention to social issues. We therefore thank Acustica Caregnato, Air Tech, Barth Italiana, Bassano foto, Birra Ingross, Euromeccanica, Fami, India Caffè, Marchi, Manfrotto, Metropolis Cinemas, Montegrappa, MP Carni Pellie-chero, Nardini Distillerie, Terralink, San Marco Pesca, Scalfrut, Franca Maroso, Valentina Pengo and Gianpaolo Moro: you have shown us that investing in people is still the best investment.
