Nocturnes Sao Paulo

The Nocturnes São Paulo series (1998-2002) is the first of the Nocturnes produced by Cássio Vasconcellos. In this Street Photography series, the artist captures the city as it strolls through the center and its outskirts. These places are carpeted with bright and colorful lights which enhance their presence in the Paulista night. It captures both metal structures and airstrips, as well as stadiums and business towers. He therefore manages to bring back the complexity and the essence of the same city. Through these staggered angles, Cássio Vasconcellos thus reveals São Paulo from all angles.

This series is reproduced in the reference book on the subject: “The World Atlas of Street Photography” by Jackie Higgins.
