History and profile
Bianco e Nero was founded in 1937 by Luigi Chiarini as the official organ of the drama school Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia.[2][3] Its first issue appeared in January that year.[4] Bianco e Nero was the official media outlet of the Centro Sperimentale della Cinematografia in Cinecittà based in Rome.[4]
Bianco e Nero was started as a monthly journal, and its contents included reviews and essays on film pedagogy and theory.[2][3] Its first director was Luigi Freddi.[3] Since 1939, the magazine also published a series of special monographic books on history, form and technique of cinema.[3] It temporarily ceased publication between 1944 and 1946 because of World War II and resumed in 1947.[2] In 1999 the journal changed its spelling in Bianco & Nero and became a bimonthly.[2] The magazine is published by the University of Rome Press.[5]
The Spanish film magazine Objetivo was modeled on Bianca e Nero.[6]
