“The images force us simply to contemplate our imprint on the land.” Manufactured Landscapes - by Edward Burtynsky

Intermediate level students advanced their knowledge of the principles of digital photography and acquired the foundations of their visual vocabulary. Students applied techniques obtained during the course to a specific photographic genre: landscape and architecture photography. Making the most of the exceptional environment that Florence and the Tuscany region as to offer, they explored the urban and natural landscapes in order to create a cohesive photographic portfolio. In this exhibit we present a selection of their achievements. The difference between organic and geometrical perceptions is present all around us. The artist has the right of choosing one of them and deciding, according to his own point of view, which one pleases him and which one he will follow. The students in the Summer 2019 intermediate level Landscape and Architecture Photography Class captured the atmospheres created by the light and the shapes of the landscapes, interpreting its changing and ephemeral qualities. The viewers will engage in a visual journey that will make them feel part of the landscape.

“Le immagini ci costringono semplicemente a contemplare la nostra impronta sulla terra”. Manufactured Landscapes - by Edward Burtynsky

Applicando le nuove conoscenze acquisite sule basi di un nuovo vocabolario visivo, sotto l’esperta guida del professor Marco Gualtieri, gli studenti FUA di Landscape Photography presenteranno i loro risultati a pubblico fiorentino ed internazionale in una serata a loro dedicata con la collaborazione dei corsi di Apicius International School of Hospitality e Digital Imaging and Visual Arts. Con la possibilità di sfruttare al meglio l’ambiente eccezionale che offrono Firenze e la regione Toscana, i provetti fotografi hanno esplorato, in breve tempo, sia i paesaggi urbani che quelli naturali, creando così un portfolio fotografico completo, in un equilibrio armonioso nella scelta tra forme organiche e geometriche. Gli spettatori si impegneranno in un viaggio visivo che li farà immergere in un paesaggio fiorentino e toscano dal punto di vista curioso di chi inizia a viverlo a pieno per la prima volta, cogliendone l’essenza che i nostri occhi, abituati ad averlo di fronte ogni giorno, non riescono più a vedere. Catturando così con scatti originali le atmosfere create dalla luce e dalle forme dei paesaggi fiorentini, i ragazzi ne hanno potuto cogliere e interpretare via via le qualità mutevoli ed effimere.
