CULO: THE WORLD IS NO LONGER FLAT
Raphael partnered up with music mogul Jimmy Iovine of Interscope Records to shoot an anthology of celebrity portraiture. A collection of stunning, provocative images that celebrate the irresistable beauty of women blessed with real curves and, in particular, with magnificent "culo" (the Italian and Spanish word for ""derriere".
Culo is an art, fashion, and pop-culture movement that defies all national, cultural, and linguistic boundaries. No matter if you were raised to call it derriere, tush, rear end, or booty, Culo is the new epicenter of female sexuality, desire, and empowerment.
GAIA COLLECTION
In the wilderness of the forest in Lebanon, Connecticut, world-renowned photographer Raphael Mazzucco became one with nature. Surrounded by the hooting of owls, powerful fox cries and supernatural light illuminating the trees, he conjured the inspiration for his Gaia collection. This, he says, is “Mother Earth getting ready to push back”.

MONTAUK
Raphael Mazzucco's work has been featured in a month-long exhibition in London's esteemed Castle Fine Art, Mayfair. Visual narratives capturing the human form set against a backdrop of startling landscapes spanning the continents, from Icelandic glaciers to African wildlife, the outback of Western Australia to Vietnamese rice paddies. He incorporates these documentary forms into building a layered narrative through paint, collage, and hand lettered texts. The artwork relfects a palimpsest approach of articulation through reinvention. Through these works, we journey alongside Raphael through terrains both geographic and emotional, artistic expressions that evidence his imprimatur on our culture as a whole.

Definition: An innate love of life and affinity with the living world.
Raphael Mazzucco is irrefutably a lover of life. His passion for synchronicity between his subjects and settings, coupled with an epicurean aesthetic, has resulted in arguably some of the most relevant photography today, aking the world of fine art by storm. Mazzucco’s work heralds a new age of art. Biophilia acknowledges his zeal, and references his instinctive kinship with all living matter.
From fellow man, to his relationship with habitats and the natural world, his affinity knows no bounds. Nowhere is this more clearly demonstrated than Biophilia.
