IVAN MUSELLI PHOTOGRAPHER INTERVIEW by GNAM BOX Hi Ivan, we are great fans of yours and it is a real pleasure for us to meet you. We really hope this interview will help people love your work as much as we do. What is your favourite dish? We are starting with the wrong question, since I really don’t have one, but I like whatever is sweet! Do you like to cook?Mmmmm…If I am at home by myself, I literally eat inside the fridge, clear enough? When did you start to realize your passion for photography?By chance, with an old analog camera at home, about a year ago. By the way, it will soon be my first anniversary as a photographer! Do you take any other photographer as a reference?Steven Meisel would probably top my list, but there are others as well (Bruce Weber, Sean & Seng…), even though I tend to be extremely inspired by amateurial photos, which I adore. What do you appreciate most in a man’s body?Absolutely all, from top to toe! Then, I am a little obsessed by the eyebrow and I really believe that a man’s face tells the whole story.  Your subjects are in most cases very handsome men…What is your relationship with women in front of your camera?To be honest, I never liked women, I have so few female friends that I could count them on one hand, plus I feel very uncomfortable taking pictures at them, plus I cannot bear the endless makeup timing, eventually they remain equally uninteresting to me.I’d rather watch the work of others when it comes to women.When and if I really get on stage with a woman, it will be the only type of woman I like, for now I will leave it “anonymous”. Is there a dream magazine where you would like to see your work published?Many, probably too many and some really ugly. Among my favourites: Self Service, L’Officiel, EY, Another, Man….but, like many photographers, my dream is to publish a book, rather several books. Tell us about your approach with fashion?Not the best, I tend to be hypercritical on everything, to the point where I realize I can be unbearable.I am not inspired by the fashion industry, I only see it in very outdated environments.Unfortunately I think that the fashion environment is full of “germs”, maybe too many. How do you live the fashion photography scene in Milan?Not much to say, I would probably be too cynical… anyway, so and so, neither good nor bad! You seem to put a lot of passion in your work…Which are your greatest obsessions?I don’t have any obsession as long as my own space is not invaded…Well to tell you the truth, I have one: I can’t stand music on a shooting session. Where do you take your inspiration?Two cities: Milan in the first place, where I was born and which I feel like an extension of my own body. Then, the way I imagine Los Angeles to be, since I’ve never been there. I hate travelling, but LA is the first place I’d like to visit and maybe I’d like to live there too in the future, since I am convinced it will not disappoint me, it is like a certainty that I feel in my blood. Then other cities, even though not too many, maybe more unusual but that is where I take a lot of my imaginary ideas. Amateurial photos of any kind, mostly old, films (B Movies), Italian pop music, Guido Gozzano (an italian poet of the late XIX century) and videogames. If you could choose, in which decade would you like to be born again?I would say this decade, even though it wouldn’t be bad to have been born before the seventies, I missed two great Italian decades and one of them is part of my childhood memories, thank god I have a great memory. Which are you future plans?I still have to think about it, but I will stick to what I am. Are you more attracted by the present, the past or the future?I’m fine in the present, it really depends on which past and I’d rather not think about the future too much, unless it is what you see in one of those terrible movies.
