Using the clever conceit of replacing a camera’s flash with a globe, the artist illustrates the idea that
the Italian magazine,
Epoca
, is able to capture the world for its readership. The apparatus itself is an
iconic Speed Graphic, renowned as one of the most famous press cameras. This image presages Fellini’s
Dolce Vita
(1960) with its paparazzi chasing sensational images to feed the popular magazines.
