Carrara, the vertigo of marble

Le Regard Libre N° 79 - Bernard Léchot

The steep slopes of the carved mountains, the whiteness of the cut rock, the quarries in the province of Massa-Carrara, on the border between Tuscany and Liguria, have lent their lustre to ancient statuary as well as to countless palaces and churches. With industrialization, marble dust has also become calcium carbonate and toothpaste. Plunge into a sumptuous setting with serious economic, social and environmental implications.
