The book is a photographic and editorial project by Gianfranco Pardi published in 2003. The title “Ne pleure celui qui connut Tanger” comes from a popular saying from which the artist takes inspiration. It ends with the sentence “Tanger pleure ceux qui ne the connaissent point” which evokes an urban beauty that could remain unknown. The volume collects the photographs taken in Tangier by Gianfranco Pardi: they record his point of view, a look “from afar” on that part of city life that still bears the marks of ancient charm along with the turbulence of a difficult change.
