Leonardo Cendamo, born on May 6, 1939, in Sannicandro Garganico, Italy, embarked on a transformative journey through photography. Initially engaged in various jobs, he returned to his studies at the age of 19, ultimately attending commercial school after completing middle school. Relocating to Milan in 1962, Cendamo's pursuit of diverse experiences in a new social and cultural context propelled his creative path.

After rigorous training at "L'Umanitaria," he entered the world of professional photography, partnering with luminaries like Franco Scheichenbauer and Renato Gozzano. An invitation from Agenzia Twenty-one International opened doors to compiling photographic portfolios for top models and advertising.

Cendamo's lens captured the essence of Paris, mingling with luminaries like Helmut Newton and documenting the May '68 upheaval. Collaborations with photographers Alberto Rizzo and Giorgio Armani catapulted him into Milanese society.

Cendamo's career was marked by milestones: exhibitions, patronage from mentors like Mario Santana, and the management of his work by the Grazia Neri Agency since 1982. His photography speaks volumes about the human condition, often focusing on themes like emptiness. Today, he resides in Barni, Como.

His photographic exhibitions, notably "II Vuoto," "Gioco e Tecnica," and "L'attimo fermato," captured portraits of personalities and cinematic worlds. Cendamo's legacy continues through forthcoming publications and scheduled exhibitions, reaffirming his place as a significant figure in contemporary photography.
