Giulio Rimondi was born in Italy in 1984. He pursued classical studies, receiving a degree in Letters. After graduating he began to travel, driven by passion and curiosity. It was then that he began his artistic career and became increasingly involved in photography. From the very start he combined art photography with socially commited reporting, focusing in particular on the human dimension of the subject. He has contributed to international publications like The New York Times-Lens, Le Monde, Repubblica and a number of other european and middle easter newspapers and magazines. He has had solo exibitions of his work in Italy and abroad, in art galleries as well as museums. His images are part of the CRMO’s Collection of Italian Contemporary Photography. Giulio is represented artist by Galèrie Lucie Weill-Seligmann in Paris and MC2 Gallery in Milan.
In 2009 he won the Iceberg Prize on reportage photography and the Special Prize for art photography.
In 2011 he published his first book, Beirut Nocturne by Charta (Milan- NYC).
Rimondi lives between Italy and Beirut and does freelance coverage of the Middle East.
