One of the many faces of Naples is unfortunately rapresented by its uncompleted palaces, roads and public buildings. They are monuments to nothing, mutilated limbs of an already torn apart city. The essentiality of the stuctures makes them even more an example of what the city of Naples could have been and at the end did not turn out to be. Behind all of this there is the hand of men, the hand of who has allowed all of this.

 

When in 1960 the first escavators arrived on the dunes of the Domitian seacoast no one could imagine the absurd concreting that would devastate one of the ecologically most beautiful scenarios of southern Italy. Today, after more than 40 years, what still remains of what was supposed to become the Miami of southern Italy are uninhabitated buildings and putrid pools. The "City of Men" is the clear example of what happens when corrupted politicians and criminal organizations get together. The pictures rapresent rotten lonliness and the nothingness of the decay where the neapolitan upper class bought its own piece of comfort on the sea. What still remains are the faces of the people that still live in Villaggio Coppola.
