Victor S. Brigola Photography

since more than fourty years i love these buildings, which i always saw through the car window on our family trips over the alps heading to the mediterranean sea. this is a ventilation shaft of the arlberg tunnel around 2.000 meters above sea level in the tyrolean alps. a really wonderful brutalist concrete building like a cathedral. have a look to more at marlowes.

it was thomas hoepker, the famous magnum photographer, who once said “you take one, maybe two pictures a year”. this is my picture 2019. i took it in basel on an ordinary saturday morning. i love the scenery and the slow mood which is a real expression of switzerland for me, the watch, the confiserie and the woman inbetween with her two dogs tapping on her phone.
