For Tony Hassler, his passion for photography commenced as a teenager, in 1980 his first photojournalism report on the earthquake in Irpinia, a few months later, his first trip to India. Since then, he has become a tireless discoverer and the enthusiasm and curiosity to explore has never left him; he transmits dynamic emotions in his shots, the result of his search for the taste of life at another speed. His work, published in numerous magazines, tells the stories of the lands and people of the world. To label him a "photographer" is an understatement: free spirit in a cosmopolitan soul, Tony has been able to combine the taste of discovery with a purely metropolitan style.
