Luciano Rossetti is an Italian photographer living near Bergamo whose impressive career began in the late 1970s.

He makes photos of “concerts and performances, and everything that comes with that,” including street photography, album covers and portraits. His image “Riccardo Pittau e Gli Amici di Matteo, Campanari di Locusantu, Isole che parlano festival, 2020, Luogosanto (SS), Sardinia, Italy” was voted Photo of the Year in the 2021 JJA Jazz Awards.

A world traveler whose work has been exhibited widely and featuring in books as well as periodicals, Rossetti covered the ECM label’s 50th anniversary at Lincoln Center and Vision festival in New York City, as well as serving as official photographer for festivals including Fano Jazz by the Sea, Bergamo Jazz Festival, deSidera Teatro, Teatro Erbamil, TAE Teatro, Ai Confini tra Sardegna e Jazz, Contaminazioni Contemporanee and Premio Europa Teatro. In 2004 Luciano was among the founders of Phocus Agency, and in 2007 he organized the first Meeting on Jazz Photography, on behalf of the Punta Giara Association. His article on photographing during the pandemic has been published at JJANews.

Luciano Rossetti’s JJA Photographers Master Class, on Saturday, August 20 at 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm ET, is the third of a monthly series of interactive presentations by photographers involved with jazz among other subjects, discussing their careers, techniques, and approaches to current professional issues. He will be interviewed by Hrayr Attarian, photographer and chair of the JJA's Photo of the Year Award committee.
