<p>Cinderellas<i> </i><em>aims to explore the intimate daily life of a transexual community of Hijras in the outskirts of Dhaka.</em></p>
<p>There was a time when “Hijras” were revered as demigods. Hijras communities in Bangladesh, namely transgender people, have been believed for thousands years to bring people fertility and good luck. But times have changed, and their lives have become extremely harder. Being “Hijra” now leaves many without an official identity: as he doesn’t exist officially, whoever is born Hijra can&#8217;t inherit property and should be expelled from the community by birth. Access to education and employment, as well as having a passport, a bank account or a driving licence is strictly precluded them. Moreover, Bangladesh seems to be no more concerned about the 35000 and more Hijras living there, and its interest in their condition has declined: a lack of assistance and alternative work opportunities has forced many of them into sex work and prostitution.</p>
<p>Hijras are permanently marked by their sexual diversity. If the society recognised them and the government gave them job opportunities, as already happens in India and Pakistan, less money could be spent on HIV-awareness campaigns and health programmes. “Probably we would not need to prostitute ourselves anymore”- said one of them- “and our lives would be better. But this night, as always, we&#8217;ll just make and dress up&#8230;and take to the streets”.</p>
<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Biography</span></h6>
<p>Annalisa Natali Murri, freelance photograher, approached for the first time to photography at age 27, while attending Architectural and UrbanPhotographySchool at EAF, in Valencia (Spain). After completing her studies in engineering, soon she began to alternate her work to photography, focusing on documentary and personal research projects. She currently lives and works in Bologna, Italy.</p>
<p>Contacts:<span style="color: #ff0000;"> <a href="mailto:annalisa@natali.bo.it"><span style="color: #ff0000;">annalisa@natali.bo.it</span></a></span></p>

<p>___________________________________________________________</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em><span style="color: #ff0000;">Cinderellas</span> è un progetto che esplora nell’intimo la vita quotidiana della comunità transessuale di Hijras, nei sobborghi di Dhaka.</em></p>
<p><em>Nell’antichità “Hijaras” era adorata come una semidea. Per centinaia di anni si è creduto che le comunità di Hijaras in Bangladesh, ora denominate come transessuali, portassero alle persone fertilità e fortuna. Ora però i tempi sono cambiati: le loro vite sono diventate estremamente difficili. Essere oggi un “Hijara” lascia molte persone senza una vera identità: non si esiste ufficialmente, non si può ereditare nulla, si dovrebbe lasciare la propria comunità d’origine. Non si può ricevere un’educazione, avere un lavoro, così come un passaporto, un conto bancario o la patente di guida.</em></p>
<p><em>Il Blangladesh non sembra assolutamente interessato agli oltre 35000 Hijaras che vivono nel paese, e l’attenzione verso i loro confronti è completamente svanita. Molti di loro, infatti, a causa della mancanza di vere opportunità di lavoro e della scarsa assistenza, sono stati costretti a prostituirsi.</em></p>
<p><em>Gli Hijaras sono costantemente discriminati per la loro diversità sessuale. Se la società li accettasse e il governo desse loro delle vere occasioni di impiego &#8211; come sta già succedendo in India e in Pakistan &#8211; molti soldi, che invece vengono investiti per le campagne e i medicinali contro HIV, si potrebbero risparmiare. “Probabilmente non avremmo bisogno di prostituirci” – ha dichiarato uno di loro &#8211; “ e le nostre vite sarebbero migliori. Ma stanotte, come sempre, semplicemente lo faremo, ci vestiremo, andremo sulle strade”.</em></p>
<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>Biografia</em></span></h6>
<p><em>Annalisa Natali Murri, fotografa indipendente autodidatta, si accosta alla fotografia per la prima volta all&#8217;età di 27 anni, frequentando un corso di fotografia urbana e di architettura presso la scuola EAF a Valencia (E). Terminati gli studi in ingegneria, inizia ad alternare il proprio lavoro alla realizzazione di progetti di fotografia documentaria e di ricerca personale. </em><em>Vive e lavora a Bologna.</em></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">This intensive week workshop will help you to begin to understand your own distinct way of seeing the world. I want to inspire you to develop your own personal visual language through subjectivity, exploring key aspects to build your peculiar emotional narrative with images. This workshop will also help photographers to the process of discovering and making a long-term project that they’re passionate about.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Through daily assignments, photographing, editing, critiquing, sequencing, students will explore the author they have inside. Finding their own voice and their own way to see and to interpret the world around us.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"> </span>Sebastian Liste was born in 1985 inAlicante, Spain. He obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology at the UNED, and a Masters in the Arts in Photojournalism at the Autonomous University of Barcelona. He is a photographer and a sociologist working in many aspects of the contemporary life in Latin America and the Mediterranean Sea area, regions where he grew up and knows well. He is currently living between Brazil and Spain. Sebastian’s extensive documentary work has focused on the lives of diverse communities around the world. By 2009, when Sebastian finished his undergraduate studies, and had visited over 20 countries, including Laos, Ethiopia, Mexico, Mali, Cuba, Nepal, among others, where he was created visual communication projects based on his deep knowledge of social issues. On these long-term projects Sebastian explored the profound cultural changes that occur in our contemporary world. Through his personal and intimate stories that fluctuate between documenting daily life in struggling communities to that of his own family. His work is enriched by the closeness and deep knowledge of his subjects. One issue that he is passionate about and has been constant in his work is the culture of resistance; human beings who transform their immediate environment in order to survive and how today’s life in a community is created and shaped, as we are living an important historical moment where this kind of life is changing and disappearing at the same time with the feeling of belonging and the identity.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In 2010, while he was getting his Masters degree in Photojournalism at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, he won the Ian Parry Scholarship for his long term project “Urban Quilombo”, about the extreme living conditions that dozens of families who have set up home in an abandoned chocolate factory in Salvador de Bahia, Brazil face. The same year he was named the young editorial photographer of the year at the Lucie Awards in New York. Since then his work has appeared in TIME Magazine, The Sunday Times Magazine, Burn Magazine, Photo District News, Private Photo Review, British Journal of Photography, Daylight Magazine, GUP Magazine and Hotshoe Magazine, among other publications.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sebastian´s work has been internationally recognized by POYi, The Overseas Press Club, Sony WPO, NPPA, Lucie Awards, PDN Photo Annual, Paris PX3, Anthropographia Human Rights Award, Daylight/CDS Awards, CENTER Awards, Freelens Awards, The PGB Awards, Reinassance Prize, Terry O´Neill Award, among others. In 2011 Sebastian was also selected to participate in the 18th World Press Photo Joop Swart Masterclass.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In 2012 Sebastian was announced as the winner of the City of Perpignan Rémi Ochlik Award, the Community Awareness Award at POYi, as one of the 30 photographers to watch at PDN 30 and received a Citation at the Olivier Rebbot Award. In addition he received a Magnum Emegency Found Grant to develop his new project in the Brazilian Amazon.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sebastian´s work has been exhibited internationally in numerous shows and festivals including Visa Pour l´Image (France, 2012), Look3 Festival of the Photograph (USA, 2012), FotoLeggendo Festival (Italy, 2012) ImageSingulieres Festival (France, 2012), Galerie de l´Instant (France, 2012), Lumix Festival for Young Photojournalism (Germany, 2012), Noorderlicht Photo Festival (Netherlads, 2011), Angkor Photo Festival (Cambodia, 2011), The New York Photo Festival (USA, 2011), Speos Gallery (Paris, 2011), Ring Cube (Tokio, 2011), Maison des Arts du Grutli (Swizerland, 2011), Gallery 291 (San Francisco, 2011), Getty Images Gallery (London, 2010) and Host Gallery (London, 2010).</p>

<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • 28 Luglio &#8211; 3 Agosto</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Questo workshop ti permetterà di capire il tuo personale modo di vedere il mondo.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il mio obbiettivo mira a farti sviluppare un tuo linguaggio attraverso la soggettività, esplorando gli aspetti principali che ti permetteranno di raccontare il tuo punto di vista attraverso le immagini. Inoltre, darò gli strumenti per realizzare un progetto fotografico a lungo termine, a cui i fotografi stessi si sono dedicati.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">Gli studenti impareranno a conoscere il narratore che è in se stessi, attraverso consegne giornaliere, fotografie, editing, osservazioni e messa in sequenza degli scatti per ascoltarsi e trovare così il proprio modo di vedere ed interpretare il mondo.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">________________________________________________________</span></p>
<h5 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">BIOGRAFIA</span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sebastian Liste è nato nel 1985 in Spagna, ad Alicante. Si è laureato in Sociologia allo UNED e ha ottenuto un master in Arts in Photojournalism all’Università Autonoma di Barcellona. Sebastian è un fotografo e un sociologo che indaga i molti aspetti della vita contemporanea in America latina e nelle regioni del Mediterraneo in cui lui è cresciuto e conosce bene. Attualmente vive tra il Brasile e la Spagna.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il suo lavoro documentario più importante si è focalizzato sulla vita di diverse comunità in tutto il mondo. Dal 2009, conclusi i primi studi universitari, ha cominciato a visitare oltre 20 paesi, tra il Laos, l’Etiopia, il Messico, il Mali, Cuba, il Nepal creando un progetto di comunicazione visuale basato sulla sua approfondita conoscenza degli aspetti sociali. Durante questo lungo periodo ha esplorato i profondi cambiamenti del nostro mondo contemporaneo. Attraverso la sua storia personale, Sebastian fluttua tra una documentazione della vita quotidiana di comunità disagiate alla propria storia personale. Il suo lavoro è arricchito dalla conoscenza intima e profonda dei suoi soggetti.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">È da sempre stato appassionato al tema della resistenza, un soggetto che percorre tutto il suo lavoro: è affascinato da come gli esseri umani siano capaci di trasformare l’ambiente circostante  per sopravvivere e come la vita quotidiana possa essere plasmata da una comunità. L’idea che traspare è come se stessimo vivendo in periodo storico in cui questo stile di vita stia cambiando e scomparendo allo stesso tempo per ritrovare un sentimento di appartenenza e identità.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Nel 2010, mentre stava per conseguire il Master in Fotogiornalismo all’Università di Barcellona, grazie al progetto “Urban Quilombo”, ha vinto la Ian Parry Scholarship. Il lavoro era focalizzato sulle condizioni di vita di dodici famiglie che vivevano in una fabbrica di cioccolato abbandonata a Salvador de Bahia, in Brasile. Lo stesso anno è stato nominato come giovane fotografo editoriale al Lucie Awards di New York. Da quel momento il suo progetto è apparso su numerosi editoriali tra cui: il Sunday Times Magazine, Burn Magazine, Photo District News, Private Photo Review, British Journal of Photography, Daylight Magazine, GUP Magazine and Hotshoe Magazine e altri.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il lavoro di Sebastian è stato riconosciuto a livello internazionale da POYi, The Overseas Press Club, Sony WPO, NPPA, Lucie Awards, PDN Photo Annual, Paris PX3, Anthropographia Human Rights Award, Daylight/CDS Awards, CENTER Awards, Freelens Awards, The PGB Awards, Reinassance Prize, Terry O´Neill Award. Nel 2011 è stato poi selezionato per partecipare al XVIII World Press Photo Joop Swart Masterclass.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Nel 2012 Sebastian ha vinto il premio City of Perpignan Rémi Ochlik, the Community Awareness Award at POYi, come uno dei trenta fotografi da guardare al PDN 30 ed è stato citato al Olivier Rebbot Award. Allo stesso tempo ha ricevuto un finanziamento dalla Magnum Emegency Found per sviluppare il suo progetto in amazzonia.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il suo lavoro è stato esposto a livello internazionale in occasione di numerosi festival e mostre, tra cui: Visa Pour l´Image (France, 2012), Look3 Festival of the Photograph (USA, 2012), FotoLeggendo Festival (Italy, 2012) ImageSingulieres Festival (France, 2012), Galerie de l´Instant (France, 2012), Lumix Festival for Young Photojournalism (Germany, 2012), Noorderlicht Photo Festival (Netherlads, 2011), Angkor Photo Festival (Cambodia, 2011), The New York Photo Festival (USA, 2011), Speos Gallery (Paris, 2011), Ring Cube (Tokio, 2011), Maison des Arts du Grutli (Swizerland, 2011), Gallery 291 (San Francisco, 2011), Getty Images Gallery (London, 2010) e Host Gallery (London, 2010).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Le sue fotografie sono esposte permanentemente a Lerida – Spagna &#8211; al Sorigue Foundation e a Séte, in Francia, presso l&#8217;Image Documentarie.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sebastian Liste è rappresentato da <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://www.reportagebygettyimages.com/sebastian-liste/"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Reportage by Getty Images</span></a></span>.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Dubrovnik, Croatia • June 21-24</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As you know, we are always interested in new forms of collaborations and to expand our workshops to new realities. When Robert Farber, told me last Summer about <em>Le Petit Festival du Théâtre</em> in Dubrovnik (Croatia), I started being very interested…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The festival has been founded and directed by Vinko Prizmic, and the theme for 2013 is <i>The Beauty of Women.</i></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Robert Farber will have an exhibition there, opening on June 21st : at the same time, we will be organizing a 3 day workshop, using the city of Dubrovnik and its beaches as location.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The workshop will start on the 21st, with a first meeting with the students, and then we will all go to Robert Farber’s opening. Then from the 22nd to the 24, there will be shooting and editing, with a final slide-show on the 24 in the evening.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We will be shooting on the theme The <i>Beauty of Women</i>, using also models. Robert will give demos, lectures, individual and group critique and will show you how to photograph models in a very unique and sensual way.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The workshop is limited to a maximum of 20 participants.</p>

<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">BIOGRAPHY</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Robert_Farber_2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3212" alt="Robert Farber" src="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Robert_Farber_2-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>Robert Farber’s style has helped to influence a generation of photographers through vast public exposure of his work. His <a href="http://www.farber.com/books/">Nine <span style="color: #ff0000;">coffee table books</span></a> have sold well over a half a million copies. Seventy of his images have been published as posters and distributed worldwide. Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis brought Farber into Doubleday to publish his book By The Sea, which won the Art Director’s award for color photography.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Farber’s fine-art photographs have been published in virtually every form.  His work has been exhibited in Japan, Europe, as well as the United States, and he has lectured at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, Universities, and professional groups in the United States, as well as  Japan, Australia, and Europe.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Robert Farber’s commercial work includes major campaigns for fashion, beauty, and advertising clients. His editorial, and advertising work has appeared in most major magazine in the United States and abroad.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Robert Farber received the Photographer of the Year Award in 1987 from PMA, Photographic Manufacturers Association. In 1995 he received the ASP International Award, given by the Professional Photographers of America, and The American Society of Photographers. This award has been given to those who have made a significant contribution to the science and art of photography. Some previous recipients of this award include Dr. Edwin Land (inventor of the Polaroid), George Hurrell, and National Geographic.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Farber’s work with nudes in fine art as well as in the commercial realm is known and respected. He has lectured for Ogilvy &amp; Mathers on the “Nude in Advertising”. ASMP requested to use Farber&#8217;s nudes as an examples of the artistic application in support of the National Endowment of Arts, after its backing of the controversial Mapplethorpe/Serrano exhibit. His book, &#8220;Farber Nudes&#8221; was also included the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis estate collection.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In 1996 Robert Farber founded <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://www.photoworkshop.com/"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Photoworkshop.com</span></a></span>. Today Photoworkshop.com is the most visited educational photography site on the internet. Photoworkshop.com is sponsored and endorsed by some of the most prestigious Corporations and Organizations in photography.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">________________________________________________</p>
<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Dubrovnik, Croazia • 21-24 Giugno</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Come molti di voi sapranno, siamo sempre interessati a nuove forme di collaborazione per aprire i nostri workshop a nuove realtà. Quando Robert Farber mi ha parlato del <em>Le Petit Festival du Théâtre di Dubrovnik</em>, in Croazia, ho iniziato da subito a pensarci…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il direttore del festival è Vinko Prizmic, ideatore e direttore artistico, che per l’edizione 2013 ha scelto come tema <i>The Beauty of Women</i>. Robert Farber allestirà una mostra in occasione del festival che inaugurerà il 21 Giugno: allo stesso tempo noi organizzeremo un workshop di tre giorni. La cittadina di Dubrovnik e le sue spiagge ci faranno d&#8217;ambientazione.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il workshop comincerà il 21 Giugno: dopo un primo incontro conoscitivo con tutti gli studenti parteciperemo all’inaugurazione della mostra. Dal 22 al 24 Giugno, comincerà la sessione di shooting ed editing, che si concluderà con uno slide-show la sera del 24.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il nostro tema sarà <i>The Beauty of Women</i>, per questo avremmo con noi anche delle modelle. Robert ci farà da guida, tra presentazioni, lezioni, confronti individuali e di gruppo, pratica sul campo su come fotografare le modelle con un tocco unico e sensuale.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il workshop è aperto ad un massimo di 20 partecipanti.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">________________________________________________</p>
<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">INFORMAZIONI PRATICHE</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Date: 21 – 24 Giugno</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">COSTI</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Workshop: € 750</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Costo modelle: € 200</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">SISTEMAZIONE</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Segnaleremo una lista di posti in cui alloggiare a diversi prezzi.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">IMPORTANTE</span>: Prenotate la vostra camera il prima possibile perché il Festival attrae molti visitatori e Dubrovnik è una delle mete più rinomate in Croazia.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">________________________________________________</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">BIOGRAFIA</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Robert_Farber_2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3212" alt="Robert Farber" src="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Robert_Farber_2-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>Lo stile di Robert Farber ha influenzato generazioni di fotografi grazie all’ampia diffusione dei propri lavori. I suoi <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://www.farber.com/books/"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Nine coffee table books</span></a> </span>hanno venduto oltre mezzo milione di copie e settanta delle sue fotografie sono state stampate come poster e distribuite in tutto il mondo. Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis ha introdotto Farber alla Doubleday per la pubblicazione di By The Sea, vincitore dell’Art Director’s award per la fotografia a colori.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Le fotografie fine-art di Farber sono state pubblicate in ogni forma. I suoi lavori sono stati esposti dal Giappone agli Stati Uniti. Lui stesso ha tenuto delle lezioni alla Smithsonian Institute di Washington, e ha insegnato a gruppi di professionisti in Australia, Europa, Stati Uniti e Giappone.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Farber ha collaborato anche per campagne pubblicitarie di moda e i suoi lavori editoriali sono apparsi nelle più importanti riviste americane.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ha ricevuto nel 1987 il Photographer of the Year Award della Photographic Manufacturers Association. Nel 1995 ha ricevuto l’ ASP International Award della Professional Photographers of America  e The American Society of Photographers, premio che viene consegnato solamente a chi ha dato un contributo scientifico e artistico significativo al mondo della fotografia – tra cui Edwin Land, inventore della polaroid, George Hurrell e National Geographic.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il suo lavoro di nudo in fine-art è altrettanto apprezzato, primo fra tutti con la Ogilvy &amp; Mathers su “Nude in Advertising”. In seguito alla sua mostra sulla controversia Mapplethorpe/Serrano l’ASMP gli ha richiesto di utilizzare alcune delle sue immagini come esempi di applicazione artistica in supporto al National Endowment of Arts,. Il suo libro &#8220;Farber Nudes&#8221; ha fatto poi parte dell’estate collection di Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Nel 1996 Robert Farber crea la <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://www.photoworkshop.com/"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Photoworkshop.com</span></a></span>, il maggior sito utilizzato per la formazione fotografica online, sostenuto e sponsorizzato dalle migliori organizzazioni di fotografia.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>TRAVEL  WORKSHOPS</strong></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The rhythm of the week is slightly different from the one in Tuscany. What does not change is TPW’s creative atmosphere, and last night show!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">One general recommendation: our on Location workshop takes place in different area of Europe or other areas of the World. Wee cannot offer to you the solid structure as that we have build through the years in Tuscany. Please consider that it will be much easier to work with digital, in order to have your work ready for critique, and to be flexible about the daily schedule.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Extra Practical information is given on the page of each workshop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Registration</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We limit our workshops to 14 students per class in order to keep the intimate feeling that our workshops are renown for, and to allow each student to have more individual time with the teacher. Workshops taught by two instructors can be larger in which case it is specified in the course description.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We have no registration deadline but because of the small size of the classes it is better to register as soon as one has decided as the courses tend to get filled up quickly. For your reservation to be effective you must send a deposit of Euro 400 for each workshop as down payment.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You can enrol:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8221; By e-mail with our on-line form;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8221; By phone to make a reservation that has to be followed by the registration form.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Payment</span><strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To confirm your registration, you can either pay the deposit of Euro 400 or the total amount of the workshop fee. The balance is due 40 days before the beginning of your workshop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Room and board will be paid directly to Villa Lina. In this way, you don&#8217;t have to pay everything upfront as in the past, and you will split your payment. This procedure also allows us to offer you better prices on room and board!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Payment can be made by Wire transfer</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Companions</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It is possible, and encouraged, to come with a companion, such as members of your family or friends, who will not take active part to the workshop. In that case, their cost will only be for room and board. There is no risk to be bored: your companion can use the week to visit the art cities nearby, take walks or bike rides, tennis, swimming or horse riding, and even Italian or cooking lessons! Please let us know and we can organize this in advance.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Waiting List</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When one of our courses fills up we will open a waiting list for people who want to try to get into the class, if there are any last minute cancellation. You will be entered in the wait list once we receive your enrolment form, but you will not need to send a deposit, we will let you know what number you are on the list and will keep you updated on any openings.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Workshop Cancellation / Refunds</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When working with professional photographers it may happen that at the last minute an unalterable assignment forces them to cancel a workshop. Rarely we have to cancel a workshop because we do not reach the minimum number of students to hold that class. In these cases the students can choose either to be fully reimbursed or transferred to another course.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you decide to cancel for any reason, we will reimburse all fees less Euro 80 for administrative expenses, if you notify your cancellation at least 30 days before the starting date of the workshop. After that time frame you will lose your down payment. There will be no refund of any fee for withdrawing after the workshop has begun.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Transfer</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There will be no charge for transferring between workshops, as long as TPW is notified at least two weeks in advance of the workshop start date. (No transfers can be made once the workshop has started).</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Discounts<strong> </strong></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We offer two types of discounts: TPW alumni can benefit of a 5% discount, students taking more than one workshop during the same session TPW Classic or one TPW Project will have a 10% discount on the second workshop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">All discounts are applied on the tuition cost only.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">What to bring</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Photographic equipment you normally use, make sure that it is in perfect working condition. Some classes might need a tripod.   Bring a selection of your work for the first meeting with your teacher and the other students is essential. This will be very useful to the instructor in order to evaluate your photographic level and you will be able to see the steps you have made by the end of the workshop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">IMPORTANT</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It is useful to bring a lens cleaning kit; it is a good habit to keep your equipment clean to avoid dust problems.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We suggest that you bring your own laptop: you will have the independence to work on your files without having to wait for our computers to be available, and at the same time you will have the possibility to connect to our scanners and printers.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Note pads, tape recorder if you want to record your classes, are also useful.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We used to give advise on which clothes to bring based on the summer weather, but now the climate is so unpredictable… It is usually quite hot, but windy during the day, and cooler at night, while we have dinner and while we assist at slide shows.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Language</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">All courses with a few exceptions are held in English. Translation will be guaranteed where needed by the course assistant.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Insurance<strong> </strong></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">TPW is not liable for personal injuries or equipment damage during the workshop duration. The signing of the enrolment form releases TPW from any liability. TPW is not responsible for reimbursement of travel expenses in case a workshop is cancelled. We recommend that you buy refundable air tickets and/or travel insurance. Please check with your travel agent.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Information</span></h6>

<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Informazioni Pratiche per i Travel Workshops  2013</strong></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il ritmo della settimana è un po’ diverso rispetto a quello dei workshop in Toscana. Non cambia l’atmosfera creativa del TPW e lo slideshow dell’ultima sera!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Una raccomandazione generale: i nostri workshop on Location si tengono in differenti parti d&#8217;Europa e del Mondo: non possiamo portarvi la solida struttura che abbiamo costruito in questi anni in Toscana. Per favore, tenete anche conto che sarebbe molto meglio lavorare in digitale, per avere il lavoro pronto per la critica giornaliera e per essere anche più flessibili rispetto al ritmo della giornata.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Le informazioni pratiche relative ad ogni <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://http://www.tpw.it/about-tpw-projects/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">destination workshop</span></a></span> sono riportate sulla pagina del workshop stesso.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Iscrizioni</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Limitiamo a 14 il numero degli studenti per ogni corso, al fine di mantenere nella classe un’atmosfera raccolta, facendo così in modo che ogni studente abbia a disposizione più tempo da trascorrere individualmente con l’insegnante. Non ci sono scadenze per l ‘iscrizione ma, dato il limite degli studenti ammessi per corso, è importante iscriversi appena possibile.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Alcuni corsi si riempiono velocemente. Per rendere effettiva l’iscrizione E&#8217; necessario inviare un deposito di Euro 400 per workshop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">L’iscrizione può essere fatta:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>per e-mail con il nostro modulo on-line</li>
<li>per telefono, inviando successivamente la scheda di iscrizione</li>
</ul>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Accompagnatori</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">E’ possibile essere accompagnati da qualcuno che trascorre la settimana con voi ma non segue il corso. In questo caso il costo aggiuntivo è solamente  quello di vitto e alloggio.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Lista di attesa</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Quando uno dei nostri corsi si riempie viene aperta una lista d’attesa per chi desidera entrare nella classe nel momento in cui ci siano delle disdette. Per accedere ad una lista d’attesa E’ necessario inviare il modulo d’iscrizione, senza dovere inviare l’anticipo. Noi vi faremo sapere quale sarà il vostro numero nella lista e sarete informati di eventuali cancellazioni.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Cancellazioni</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Lavorando con fotografi professionisti, può capitare che all’ultimo momento un impegno di lavoro improvviso li costringa a rinunciare al workshop. Raramente ci troviamo costretti a cancellare un workshop perchè non è stato raggiunto un numero minimo di iscritti.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In questi casi, lo studente potrà scegliere di essere interamente rimborsato o di inserirsi in un altro corso. Se decidete di cancellare la vostra iscrizione, per qualunque motivo, dandone comunicazione almeno 30 giorni prima dell’inizio del workshop, vi sar‡à rimborsato l ‘importo versato dedotte Euro 80 per spese amministrative. Non si effettua alcun rimborso a workshop iniziato.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Trasferimenti</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Non ci saranno spese aggiuntive per chi desidera cambiare corso, se sarà comunicato al TPW con almeno due settimane di anticipo prima dell’inizio del workshop e compatibilmente con le disponibilità nel nuovo corso di destinazione. Nessun cambiamento sarà accettato a workshop iniziato.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Sconti</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Vengono offerti due tipi di sconto: gli ex alunni TPW hanno diritto ad uno sconto del 5% e gli studenti che frequentano più di un workshop nello stesso anno hanno diritto a uno sconto del 10% sul secondo corso.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Tutti gli sconti sono calcolati sul solo costo del corso (fee) e non sono cumulativi.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Assicurazione</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">TPW non è responsabile per il rimborso di spese di viaggio nel caso un workshop sia cancellato. Consigliamo vivamente di acquistare biglietti aerei rimborsabili e/o assicurazione sul viaggio.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Cosa Portare</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">L’attrezzatura fotografica personale completa e in buono stato (se avete dubbi sul buon funzionamento della vostra macchina fotografica, consigliamo di farla controllare prima di partire), alcuni corsi necessitano un cavalletto. E’ essenziale che portiate una selezione del vostro lavoro per il primo incontro con gli insegnanti e gli altri studenti; serve agli insegnanti per valutare il vostro livello fotografico, a voi per riuscire a vedere i vostri progressi alla fine del workshop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">IMPORTANTE</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">E&#8217;utile avere con sè il materiale per pulire la propria attrezzatura dalla polvere!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Suggeriamo di portare il proprio computer portatile: questo vi darà la possibilità di gestire i vostri files indipendentemente.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">L’ambiente è informale. Consigliamo vestiti comodi e pratici. specialmente per quanto riguarda le calzature.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Di solito fornivamo  indicazioni su come attrezzarsi per la calda estate toscana, ma negli ultimi anni abbiamo avuto un clima cosÏìimprevedibile! Difficile dare consigli. In linea di massima è mediamente caldo ma ventilato (siamo a 400 m) durante il giorno, e più fresco durante la sera, quando ceniamo all’aperto e assistiamo a slide-show.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Lingua</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Tutti i corsi sono tenuti in inglese. Fanno eccezione i corsi tenuti da insegnanti di madre lingua italiana. Non allarmatevi sarà presente un assistente/interprete per ogni corso.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Assicurazioni</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il TPW non è responsabile degli eventuali danni a persone o cose durante la permanenza al workshop. La firma in calce alla scheda di iscrizione solleva il TPW da qualsiasi responsabilit‡.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Per qualsiasi informazione, non esitate a contattarci:</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">It is suggested, when possible, to come by car. For some workshops it is better to be independent and in general a car could be useful to explore the surrounding area.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>TRAIN</strong></li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The closest station is Roma Termini. From there, we can arrange a free pick up service on Sunday afternoon at 3 pm.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Driving to Villa Lina takes approx. 1 hour. The cost is € 25 per person. Please check the train schedule on <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://www.trenitalia.com" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">www.trenitalia.it</span></a></span></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>BUS</strong></li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Blue bus “Cotral”, stops in front of the little gate &amp; in front of the main gate of Villa Lina. It arrives and leaves from Roma-Saxa Rubra, connected with urban train to Piazzale Flaminio, in the heart of Rome. It takes 45 min by bus + 15 min by train</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>CAR</strong></li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">FROM NORTH (Milano/Florence)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Highway A1 take exit Orte and follow indications for Viterbo.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After few minutes take the road for Soriano al Cimino, cross Soriano village &amp; follow indications for Cassia-Cimina road (SS2). When on Cassia-Cimina road take left direction Roma. The Cassia-Cimina road leads directly to Ronciglione Village. Before entering into Ronciglione, turn right, follow directions RONCIGLIONE-HOSPITAL (OSPEDALE) and  when you find the crossing for the hospital on your left, opposite (on your right) is the road for VILLA LINA. Our green gate is at 5 meters.</p>

<ul>
<li><strong>PLANE</strong></li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The closest and most practical airport is the one of Rome.

We are about 1 hour away from the airport by car.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">When to arrive</span><strong> </strong></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You should arrive at Villa Lina BETWEEN 4 AND 6 P.M. on SUNDAY: that will give you time to check into your room, relax and be ready for the first meeting at 6 p.m. where you will meet your teacher and fellow students.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">When to leave</span><strong> </strong></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The one-week workshops end at noon on Saturday. Except for the students staying for more than one week, all students are required to check out from their room by 10 am.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Housing</span><strong> </strong></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Some of you who have been following us from our first years in Buonconvento for sure remember the magic atmosphere we managed to create there …ok, those where the times pre-internet, pre-cell phones, pre-facebook…life was at a slower pace, and we felt like pioneers…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I have been thinking a lot about those days… I have also been thinking of series of workshops called Back to the roots…then suddenly, through friend of friends (that’s the way it goes..) I went to Visit Villa Lina, and …bum! It was love at first sight!!! I recognize in few seconds that it was the place I had been looking for a long time…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Not easy to describe, Villa Lina: behind this simple name, you will find a magic world, made out of an Italian garden, created in 1790, with 33 species of rare trees, 6 different houses where we will be staying, 3 swimming pools – one build back in 1920, a greenhouse from the same period, a country conference rooms, herb lab…goats, hens, foxes, peacocks…poets, writers, artists, from Gabriele d’Annunzio to Andy Warhol, chose Villa Lina as their retreat…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>…and now it will be centre of our Summer workshops</strong>. We ran a workshop there last September, with renowned photographer Greg Gorman, and we totally fall in love with Villa Lina and the life there….</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For those of you who are taking portrait and nude workshops, you can spend a week (and more!) without stepping out of Villa Lina boundaries; if you are into landscape, the area around us, Tuscia, will surprise you with the variety of different landscapes. If you are more oriented on personal research, there are plenty of magic locations within and without thee estate, and who prefers to shoot street photography and daily life, the lively village of Ronciglione is at walking distance, Viterbo is half an hour away, Rome one hour…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Accommodations at </strong><span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://relaisvillalina.com" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Villa Lina</span></a></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are different houses within the estate, with different type of rooms. This is not a traditional hotel; actually, it is not a hotel at all!!!!!  Every room is different from the other: what they have in common, is the atmosphere…the furniture, colours, decor of each room…the spirit of the place is everywhere, thanks to Paola international background and extremely good taste.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To make it simpler for you (and for us!) we have divided the rooms into 2 types:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">-       <strong>standard rooms.</strong> This is the majority of the rooms, either with private bathroom or shared bathroom (with another room). Here, you can have single occupancy or double (shared with another student). These houses include: <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/hospitality/historic-residences/portales-house/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Casa Portale,</span></a> <a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/casa-vostra/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Casa Vostra,</span></a> <a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/cas-vostra-cottage/"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Casa Vostra Cottage</span></a>, <a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/casa-pastore/"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Casa Pastore</span></a></span> e <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/casa-orto/"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Casa Orto</span></a></span>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">-       <strong>deluxe rooms.</strong> This rooms are in  <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/torre-del-falco/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Torre del Falco</span></a></span> and <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/torre-del-falco-pavilion/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Padiglione del Falco</span></a></span><a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/hospitality/historic-residences/torre-del-falco/" target="_blank">.</a> On the top of the hill, with larger rooms and more space, terraces, drawing room, an intimate frescoed library. There are only 7 rooms.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When registering please specify what type of room you like.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In total, there are 28 rooms at Villa Lina. We encourage double occupancy, this will make you save some money and will alow us to be all together at the Estate. For those who prefer to stay outside of the Estate, or once all the rooms at Villa Lina are booked, we can provide nice B&amp;B in the village: naturally, you will be with the rest of the group for all activities, lectures, shooting-demo, meals and evening slide shows.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Just image opening a litle gate, walking distance from the town centre, and you&#8217;ll be in Paradise.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>For students staying for two weeks, the night between the workshops is included in the costs.</strong></p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Meals</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Well,  I already told you about Villa Lina…Now I have to tell you about Lucia, our cook. She is extraordinary, can prepare the simplest food, for 6 or 60 people, no worries!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">During the week we were there during Greg Gorman workshop, everyday she was surprising us with great plates…don’t expect haute cuisine or redundant names…it will be pasta, local cheeses and vegetables, meat, fish. So if you ask her what’s for lunch, she will look down at you and answer very quickly: meat! And then you will find yourself lost in a fine gourmet of tastes and perfumes. Of course, she will also be able to follow you directions, should you be on some special diet. The food is hearty and savoury traditional Italian country food. Wine and mineral water are provided free of charge with the meals. For those staying for more than one week, Saturday’s lunch and dinner are not included in the meal plan. Sunday breakfast is included. Meals are an important communal moment of the life at TPW to relax, exchange opinions and ideas with students and teachers of other courses, etc. We always eat together, the meal plan includes all meals from dinner on Sunday to breakfast on the following Saturday. For those staying for more than one week, Saturday’s lunch and dinner are not included in the meal plan</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>

<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Registration</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We limit our workshops to 14 students per class in order to keep the intimate feeling that our workshops are renown for, and to allow each student to have more individual time with the teacher. Workshops taught by two instructors can be larger in which case it is specified in the course description.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We have no registration deadline but because of the small size of the classes it is better to register as soon as one has decided as the courses tend to get filled up quickly, and in this way you will also be able to choose your room at Villa Lina.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For your reservation to be effective you must send a deposit.</p>

<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Waiting List</span></h6>

You will be entered in the wait list once we receive your enrolment form, but you will not need to send a deposit, we will let you know what number you are on the list and will keep you updated on any openings.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Workshop Cancellation / Refunds</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When working with professional photographers it may happen that at the last minute an unalterable assignment forces them to cancel a workshop. Rarely we have to cancel a workshop because we do not reach the minimum number of students to hold that class. In these cases the students can choose either to be fully reimbursed or transferred to another course.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you decide to cancel for any reason, we will reimburse all fees less Euro 80 for administrative expenses, if you notify your cancellation at least 30 days before the starting date of the workshop. After that time frame you will lose your down payment. There will BE no refund of any fee for withdrawing after the workshop has begun.</p>

<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">What to bring</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Photographic equipment you normally use, make sure that it is in perfect working condition. Some classes might need a tripod.  A selection of your work for the first meeting with your teacher and the other students is essential. This will be very useful to the instructor in order to evaluate your photographic level and you will be able to see the steps you have made by the end of the workshop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">IMPORTANT</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It is useful to bring a lens cleaning kit, we work in the country and it is a good habit to keep your equipment clean to avoid dust problems.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We suggest that you bring your own laptop: you will have the independence to work on your files without having to wait for our computers to be available, and at the same time you will have the possibility to connect to our scanners and printers.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Note pads, tape recorder if you want to record your classes, are also useful.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We used to give advise on which clothes to bring based on the summer weather, but now the climate is so unpredictable… It is usually quite hot, but windy during the day, and cooler at night, while we have dinner and while we assist at slide shows.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Language</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">All courses with a few exceptions are held in English. Translation will be guaranteed where needed by the course assistant.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Insurance</span><strong> </strong></h6>

TPW is not responsible for reimbursement of travel expenses in case a workshop is cancelled. We recommend that you buy refundable air tickets and/or travel insurance. Please check with your travel agent.</p>

<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Quando Partire</span><strong> </strong></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il workshop finisce il sabato mattina intorno alle 12. Esclusi gli studenti che si fermano per due settimane, dovreste liberare la stanza per le 10</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Alloggio</span><strong> </strong></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Chi ci ha seguito fin dagli inizi si ricorderà l’atmosfera magica che abbiamo sempre cercato di creare…d’accordo, erano tempi precedenti a internet, telefonini e facebook… la vita si svolgeva a un passo lento e ci sentivamo come dei pionieri…penso spesso a quei giorni con nostalgia &#8211; stavo anche pensando di creare una serie di workshop chiamata “ritorno alle radici” &#8211; poi, attraverso amici di amici (non è sempre così??) ho avuto l’occasione di visitare Villa Lina ed è stato amore a prima vista!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Avevo davanti a me il posto che avevo sempre cercato!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Non è facile descrivere Villa Lina: dietro al nome così semplice, troverete un mondo magico, fatto di un giardino all’italiana, creato alla fine del 700, con 33 specie di alberi rari, 6 case differenti una dall’altra dove alloggeremo, tre piscine, una delle quali risale al 1920; una serra, dello stesso periodo, un padiglione per incontrarci, un laboratorio per erbe officinali…caprette, volpi, pavoni…nessuna meraviglia che poeti, scrittori, artisti e musicisti abbiano scelto Villa Lina come ”buen retiro”, da Gabriele d’Annunzio a Andy Warhol, a Nick Cave…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">…e ora questo luogo incantato sarà la nuova sede dei nostri Summer Workshop!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A settembre abbiamo tenuto il primo workshop, con Greg Gorman, e abbiamo avuto la conferma che Villa Lina è il posto giusto per noi!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Per chi segue workshop di ritratto e nudo, potete rimanere a Villa Lina tutta la settimana senza mettere il naso fuori: tante sono le locations che troverete! Se inseguite il paesaggio, l’area intorno a noi &#8211; la misteriosa Tuscia &#8211; vi lascerà senza fiato; chi invece lavora sulla street photography e giornalismo, troverà spunti dal paese di Ronciglione, Calcata, Sutri …</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Viterbo è a mezz&#8217;ora di distanza, e Roma solo un’ora….</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Gli alloggi di Villa Lina </span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ci sono varie case dentro la tenuta di Villa Lina, ognuna con caratteristiche differenti. Non è un hotel tradizionale: anzi, non è per niente un hotel!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ogni stanza è differente, in colori, misure arredamento…sono accomunate dall’atmosfera,di una VERA casa di campagna- non quelle rifatte al giorno d’oggi &#8211; ma quella nella quale vivevano persone reali!  E Paola, la proprietaria della tenuta, ha portato qui ricordi di viaggi, opere di artisti, tessuti pregiati…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Per rendere le cose più semplici per voi (ma anche per noi!) abbiamo diviso le camera in due categorie:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">-       <strong>camera standard</strong>. Cioè, la maggioranza delle camera. Possono essere occupate singolarmente o in due, con il bagno private o diviso con un’altra camera (una sola!).q ueste sono le case <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/hospitality/historic-residences/portales-house/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Casa Portale,</span></a> <a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/casa-vostra/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Casa Vostra,</span></a> <a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/cas-vostra-cottage/"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Casa Vostra Cottage</span></a>, <a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/casa-pastore/"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Casa Pastore</span></a> </span>e <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/casa-orto/"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Casa Orto</span></a></span>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">-      <strong>camera deluxe</strong> Queste sono le camera a <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/torre-del-falco/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Torre del Falco</span></a></span> and <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://relaisvillalina.com/it/hospitality/historic-residences/torre-del-falco-pavilion/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Padiglione del Falco</span></a></span><strong>. </strong>In cima alla collina, con camera più grandi e maggior spazio comune, soggiorni, terrazza e una biblioteca affrescata…Solo 7 camere.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Al momento della registrazione, specificate quale tipo si sistemazione vi interessa, e vi faremo sapere subito la disponibilità.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In totale, ci sono 28 camere a disposizione. Suggeriamo di condividere la stanza con qualcun’altro: risparmierete e in questo modo potremo essere tutti a Villa Lina. Per chi si iscrive tardi e non trova disponibilità nella nostra struttura ricettiva, o comunque preferisce stare in paese, possiamo suggerire diverse sistemazioni alternative.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Naturalmente, anche se alloggiate fuori, sarete con il gruppo per tutte le attività:  pasti, lezioni,  feste…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Immaginate di aprire un piccolo cancello, e di entrare in Paradiso….</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Per gli studenti che rimangono due settimane, la note di sabato è inclusa nel costo.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Pasti</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Bene, vi ho parlato di Villa Lina. Adesso vorrei parlarvi di Lucia, la nostra cuoca. É straordinaria, può preparare pranzi e cene da 6 a 60 persone, senza preoccuparsi!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Durante il workshop di Settembre, ci ha sorpreso ogni giorno con  grandi portate. Non aspettatevi haute-cuisine o piatti con nomi ridondanti…sarà pasta, formaggi e verdure, carne e pesce. Così, se le chiedete cosa c’è per cena, vi guarderà severa e dirà : carne. Punto.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Vi troverete di fronte piatti deliziosi, preparati in maniera semplice con ingredienti locali (il vero Km Zero!).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I pasti sono un momento molto importante nella vita del TPW, per rilassarsi, scambiare opinioni con studenti di corsi diversi, parlare con altri insegnanti, ecc. Sono momenti di condivisione e comprendono dalla cena della domenica alla prima colazione del sabato. E’ possibile, su richiesta, seguire un regime vegetariano. Vino, acqua minerale e altre bevande sono gratuiti. Per chi si ferma due settimane, il pranzo e la cena del sabato non sono compresi. La prima colazione della domenica mattina è compresa.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Internet</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Abbiamo connessione Internet</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Iscrizioni</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Limitiamo I nostri workshop ad un massimo di 14 partecipanti per classe (e raramente superano i 10), per mantenere l’atmosfera intima per permettere ad ogni studenti di avere un rapporto individuale con l’insegnante.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Non abbiamo scadenza per le iscrizioni, ma è meglio farlo al più presto per vari motivi,:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>alcuni corsi si riempiono in fretta</li>
<li>possiamo sapere prima l’andamento di certi workshop</li>
<li>siete sicuri di garantirvi un alloggio a Villa Lina</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Per rendere effettiva la vostra iscrizione è sufficiente inviare il deposito.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Potete registrarvi :</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Via telefono/mail</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Compilando il modulo che trovate qui</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Pagamento</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Potete pagare il deposito o l’importo intero. Il saldo è richiesto 40 giorni prima dell’inizio del workshop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il costo di vitto e alloggio vengono pagati direttamente a Villa Lina con le stesse modalità: acconto al momento dell’iscrizione e saldo 40 gg prima dell’inizio. Alternativamente, può essere effettuato, SOLO IN CONTANTI, al vostro arrivo a Villa Lina.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In questo modo, il pagamento viene diviso in più parti, e una volta arrivati a Villa Lina non dovrete preoccuparvi di nulla.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Accompagnatori</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">E’ possibile essere accompagnati da qualcuno che trascorre la settimana con voi ma non segue il corso. In questo caso il costo aggiuntivo è solamente  quello di vitto e alloggio. Sicuramente chi vi accompagnerà farà un soggiorno piacevole: visite nei vicini luoghi d ‘arte, gite a piedi o in bicicletta, tennis, nuoto o equitazione&#8230;e anche lezioni di cucina! Fateci sapere se avete richieste particolari e faremo il possibile per aiutarvi.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Lista di attesa</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Quando uno dei nostri corsi si riempie viene aperta una lista d’attesa per chi desidera entrare nella classe nel caso in cui ci siano delle disdette. Per accedere ad una lista d’attesa E’ necessario inviare il modulo d’iscrizione, senza dovere inviare l’anticipo. Noi vi faremo sapere qual vostro numero di attesa e sarete informati di eventuali cancellazioni.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Cancellazioni</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Lavorando con fotografi professionisti, può capitare che all’ultimo momento un impegno di lavoro improvviso li costringa a rinunciare al workshop. Raramente le cancellazioni sono causate da un non raggiungimento di un minimo di iscritti.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In questi casi, lo studente potrà scegliere di essere interamente rimborsato o di inserirsi in un altro corso. Se decidete di cancellare la vostra iscrizione, per qualunque motivo, dandone comunicazione almeno 30 giorni prima dell’inizio del workshop, vi sarà rimborsato l&#8217;importo versato detratto di 80€ per spese amministrative. Non si effettua alcun rimborso a workshop iniziato.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Trasferimenti</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Non ci saranno spese aggiuntive per chi desidera cambiare corso, se sarà comunicato al TPW con almeno due settimane di anticipo prima dell’inizio del workshop e compatibilmente con le disponibilità nel nuovo corso di destinazione. Nessun cambiamento sarà accettato a workshop iniziato.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Sconti</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Vengono offerti due tipi di sconto: gli ex alunni TPW hanno diritto ad uno sconto del 5% e gli studenti che frequentano più di un workshop nello stesso anno hanno diritto a uno sconto del 10% sul secondo corso.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Tutti gli sconti sono calcolati sul solo costo del corso (fee) e non sono cumulativi.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Assicurazione</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">TPW non è responsabile per il rimborso di spese di viaggio nel caso un workshop sia cancellato. Consigliamo vivamente di acquistare biglietti aerei rimborsabili e/o assicurazione sul viaggio.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Cosa Portare</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">L’attrezzatura fotografica personale completa e in buono stato (se avete dubbi sul buon funzionamento della vostra macchina fotografica, consigliamo di farla controllare prima di partire), alcuni corsi necessitano un cavalletto. E’ essenziale che portiate una selezione del vostro lavoro per il primo incontro con gli insegnanti e gli altri studenti; serve agli insegnanti per valutare il vostro livello fotografico, a voi per riuscire a vedere i vostri progressi alla fine del workshop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">IMPORTANTE</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">E&#8217;utile avere con sè il materiale per pulire la propria attrezzatura dalla polvere!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Suggeriamo di portare il proprio computer portatile: avrete così la possibilità di gestire i vostri files indipendentemente.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">L’ambiente è informale. Consigliamo vestiti comodi e pratici, specialmente per quanto riguarda le calzature.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Di solito fornivamo  indicazioni su come attrezzarsi per la calda estate toscana, ma negli ultimi anni abbiamo avuto un clima così imprevedibile che difficile dare consigli. In linea di massima è mediamente caldo ma ventilato (siamo a 400 m) durante il giorno, e più fresco durante la sera, quando ceniamo all&#8217;aperto e assistiamo agli slide-show.</p>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"></h6>
<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Lingua</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Tutti i corsi sono tenuti in inglese. Fanno eccezione i corsi tenuti da insegnanti di madre lingua italiana. Non allarmatevi sarà presente un assistente/interprete per ogni corso.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • July 21 &#8211; 27</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A look at representing the daily life of subjects in an intimate way through photographing domestic settings. I will place an emphasis on getting access, gaining trust and living with the people you photograph. While the practical aspect of a workshop would focus on this, every thing I address will be approached from the perspective of making the transition from education to a working professional, looking at ways to find opportunities to fund and publish personal work in an editorial context.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Cercherò di porre l’attenzione su come accedere, guadagnare fiducia e vivere vicino alle persone che vogliamo fotografare. Parallelamente agli aspetti tecnici &#8211; incentrati proprio su questo &#8211; cercherò di indirizzare il vostro progetto ad un vero lavoro professionale, indagando le opportunità di finanziamento e pubblicazione a  livello editoriale.</p>

<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;">Scotland • Catherine Karnow • May 19/28, 2013</span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Welcome to Scotland!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This will be a very special workshop.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We are not pretending to see all of Scotland in one week (well, 9 days) but for sure we will give you an idea of the spirit of Scotland  (and we dont mean only Scotch whisky!)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We will start and end our trip from/in Edinburgh –one of the most charming cities of Europe -  visiting the city, living its brilliant life – night and day .</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After two full days, we will rent a couple cars, fill the tanks and off we go!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We will cross the Highlands, visiting small villages, meeting and spending time with the local people as well as photographing and enjoying amazing landscapes, cheese makers, delicious seafood, Scottish music, Highlands Games, golf, salmon fishermen and salmon smokehouses, Scotch whisky distilleries, sea eagles and of course sheep, sheep, sheep. Then we will continue to head west to the Islands, in particular, the wild and beautiful Isles of Mull and Iona.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We will have a special photo instructor with us: Catherine Karnow, photographer <em>for National Geographic</em> <em>Traveler</em><em> </em>and<em> </em><em>National Geographic Magazine</em>, as well as many other international publications, who knows Scotland well. She shot a book on whisky and whisky lifestyle. Catherine is not only a world-renowned photographer but also an inspiring and highly acclaimed workshop teacher.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The workshop is limited to 10 students. We will be moving from place to place – but not everyday, we want to enjoy the Scottish hospitality as well, so we will stay 2/3 nights in each location. Ladies and gentlemen, start your packing…</p>

<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;">TPW Vision • Guitar workshop with Justin Sandercoe</span></h5>
<p>As part of the new TPW Vision workshops on other disciplines, we are honoured to start with a guitar workshop.</p>
<p>Photography started to be an important part of my life when I was twenty, but before that, as anybody else of my generation, I was passionate about music and guitar playing…<br />
I have not done too much progress there, but I keep listening to music, try to stay updated with the new production, and still love the idea of SOMEDAY improve my guitar playing…!</p>
<p>The format we have been using for so many years for our photographic workshops can easily be applied to other classes.</p>
<p>Surfing the internet, a couple of years ago, I bumped into <a title="justin" href="http://www.justinguitar.com" target="_blank">Justin Sandercoe </a>website, and started thinking of asking him to develop a project together.</p>
<p>I was fascinated by the way he made guitar playing seems so simple, by the structure of the website, the contents of the videos…</p>
<p>Last August I did finally write him and&#8230;here we are, with the launch of the firs edition of a guitar residential workshop!</p>
<p>Here is the description, in Justin&#8217;s words:</p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;">Tuscany &#8211; One Week Residential Clinic  • April 20th to 27th 2013</span></h5>
<p><em>I&#8217;ve been playing with this idea for a long time, but finally managed to get it off the ground  when <a href="http://www.tpw.it" target="_blank">Carlo Roberti from TPW</a> contacted me about running a guitar clinic along similar lines to the  photography courses he runs :) So what we&#8217;re doing is a one week  residential clinic in beautiful Tuscany. Maximum of 10 participants and  it&#8217;s going to be a full on week, so get ready for an intense time with  your guitar.</em></p>
<p><em>What level is it for?? Well not complete beginners. If you have completed the beginner course you are probably ready&#8230; I&#8217;m thinking it is for progressing players, perfect for those that have been playing a while and want to push into that next zone, remember it&#8217;s a lot of guitar time, so make sure your fingers are ready :)</em></p>
<p><em>I have a rough schedule planned, but the contents can be tailored to the participants, though for sure we&#8217;ll be covering:</em></p>
<p><em>• Music theory and it&#8217;s practical application from the very beginning up to and including modes.<br />
• Blues improvisation licks, jamming techniques and actual jamming!<br />
• Major Scale improvisation, use, licks, techniques, finding melodies and dealing with notes out of the diatonic realm.<br />
• Rhythm Guitar Skills, techniques, grips, strumming and fingerstyle options etc.</em></p>
<p><em>But also we might look at any of the following depending on what the group wants to check out.</em></p>
<p><em>- Technique &#8211; Aural Training &#8211; Transcribing &#8211; Jazz Skills &#8211; Acoustic tricks &#8211; Songwriting &#8211; Recording Skills &#8211; Chord Melody arranging &#8211; ??? more :) Tone and using effects&#8230;</em></p>
<p><em>I&#8217;m planning 6 hours of group tuition a day (three 2 hour classes), but with plenty of hang out time to chat and explore other areas, jam, and time for you to practice on your own too&#8230; or nip out and explore the amazing countryside&#8230; Tuscany is very special!</em></p>
<p><em>Many people have asked about this, so I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;s going to be awesome!  Get in touch with <a href="mailto:crob@tpw.it">Carlo</a> if you have any questions, as he is a master photographer and runs photography courses there and is working with me to organise it!</em></p>
<p>Justin</p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Practical information</strong></span></h5>
<p>The cost is £899 (GBP, including vat) for the week’s tuition, not including accommodation.</p>
<p>Accommodation will be at the house where we will be holding classes.</p>
<p>www.poggiolo.info</p>
<p>€65 per night for s single room &#8211; including breakfast.</p>
<p>€50 per person in a double room &#8211; including breakfast.</p>
<p>All being at the same place allows for late night jamming after a few beers!!</p>
<p>Other meals are not included and will be taken in the nearby town: we have a deal with a local cafe/restaurant  for our lunch and dinners, perhaps one night we all go somewhere more fancy depending on how we all feel. You should allow aprox of €25 per day total for meals (unless you are big or fancy eater!!).</p>
<p>If you want to bring a partner, he/she is more than welcomed.</p>
<p>Lots of things to do in the area: visit medieval villages, go horse riding, thermal baths, enjoy slow pace Tuscan life&#8230;</p>
<p>Siena is close by and is an amazing city.</p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Where and how to get there</strong></span></h5>
<p>Our centre in San Quirico d’Orcia will be Residence Il Poggiolo</p>
<p><a href="http://www.poggiolo.info">www.poggiolo.info</a></p>
<p>It is an old post station from the XVI century, totally renewed.<br />
This place will be ideal as our Centre:  here we will be able to concentrate on our music: then, just a few minutes walk, we have the lovely town of San Quirico d’Orcia, where everybody knows us and we are very welcomed Not far, many places of interest: Bagno Vignoni, Bagno San Filippo, Siena, Montepulciano, Florence.<br />
Rooms will be assigned to the first ones to enrol. Please note we have a limited number of rooms.<br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;"><br />
<strong> TRAIN</strong></span><br />
The closest station is Buonconvento,, on the line Siena-Grosseto. From Buonconvento train station we can arrange a free pick up service on Sunday afternoon. It is 25 minutes distance from our Centre   For train schedules, please consult the website www.trenitalia.com.<br />
<strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">CAR</span><br />
</strong>For those driving from North, the exit is Firenze Impruneta  on A1, then take highway Firenze- Siena  and exit at SIENA SUD. From there, direction to Rome on ss n. 2<br />
From South, exit Chiusi, following the direction Chianciano – Montepulciano – Pienza – Siena – and then as above. Take direction to Siena – Pienza then once in Pienza follow for San Quirico d’Orcia<br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>PLANE</strong></span><br />
The closest and most practical airport is the one of Florence. From there you can easily reach the train station by bus and then follow the train itinerary (see above). We are about 90 minutes away from the airport by car.<br />
Alternatively, you can also use Rome Airport. But it is much more crowded. From there, trains to Grosseto, and then to Buonconvento.</p>
<p>Another possibility is Pisa. From there, take a train to Florence and then as above.</p>

<p><strong> </strong>We limit our workshops to 10 students per class in order to keep an  intimate feeling and also give time to everyone to spend time on one-to-one sessions with Justin.</p>
<p>We have no registration deadline but because of the small size of the classes it is better to register as soon as one has decided as this course will tend to get filled up quickly. For your reservation to be effective you must send a deposit of £ 400 as down payment.<br />
You can enrol through Justin’s website using the on-line form;</p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Payment</strong></span></h5>
<p>To confirm your registration, you can either pay the deposit of £ 400 or the total amount of the workshop fee. . The balance is due 40 days before the beginning of the workshop.<br />
Room and board will be paid directly at the Residence il Poggiolo. They accept major credit cards. In this way, you don’t have to pay everything upfront and you will split your payment.</p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong> Companions</strong></span></h5>
<p>It is possible, and encouraged, to come with a companion, such as members of your family or friends, who will not take active part to the workshop. In that case, their cost will only be for room and board. There is no risk to be bored: your companion can use the week to visit the art cities nearby, take walks or bike rides, tennis, swimming or horse riding, and even Italian or cooking lessons! Please let us know and we can organize this in advance.</p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Waiting List</strong></span></h5>
<p>When the course fills up we will open a waiting list for people who want to try to get into the class, if there are any last minute cancellation. You will be entered in the wait list once we receive your enrolment form, but you will not need to send a deposit, we will let you know what number you are on the list and will keep you updated on any openings.</p>
<p><strong><br />
</strong></p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong> Workshop Cancellation / Refunds</strong></span></h5>
<p>If you decide to cancel for any reason, we will reimburse all fees less Euro 80 for administrative expenses, if you notify your cancellation at least 40 days before the starting date of the workshop. After that time frame you will lose your down payment. There will be no refund of any fee for withdrawing after the workshop has begun.</p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>What to bring</strong></span></h5>
<p>Your guitar, picks, strings…we will send a complete list.<br />
We used to give advise on which clothes to bring based on the summer weather, but now the climate is so unpredictable… It is usually warmish, but windy during the day, and cooler at night, while we have dinner and while we assist at slide shows.</p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Language</strong></span></h5>
<p>The class will be held in English</p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Insurance</strong></span></h5>
<p>TPW is not liable for personal injuries or equipment damage during the workshop duration. The signing of the enrolment form releases TPW from any liability.</p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Information</strong></span></h5>

</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">What makes our workshops so special is a mix of different ingredients, which we have put together and polished over the years&#8230; They include the teachers, the locations, the atmosphere and last, but not least, the assistants.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Our assistants are those who welcome you first at TPW; they spend the whole week with you; they help you with technical problems; they facilitate communication in different languages; they show you the locations for shooting; they help you with the workflow, etc&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The TPW assistants play a pivotal role in the interaction between the participants and the tutors.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Being a TPW assistant basically means three things: first of all, to meet the tutors’ needs quickly and efficaciously; secondly, to understand and handle the participants’ requests; and finally, to harmonize the relationships between all the participants at TPW workshops.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Our highest ambition is to create in few days an environment in which photography and inter-personal relationships bond tightly together: our workshops are fast paced though exciting, and the commitment is set high. Our assistants, thus, are professionals who stand out for their dynamism, passion, detail-orientation and versatility. They offer technical support during class and shooting, as well as helping me, the TPW director, to organize everything <em>almost </em>perfectly, just like we love it!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As TPW is a very international environment, our assistants speak fluent English and they help the communication between the students and the photographers coming from all over the world. In doing so, our assistants make sure that classes are available for everybody and no one is left out during the free time!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The assistants are young people who are just as passionate about photography as you do! They can help you anytime, offering you a smile especially when time gets pretty hectic!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Maybe I am lucky, or perhaps I know how to choose my assistants wisely, the point is that everybody is happy about them!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Our assistants professionally grow with us, and very often, they start their own career, treasuring all that they have learnt at TPW.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you are interested, please send your CV to info@tpw.it</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">________________________________________________________________________________________</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Quello che rende i nostri workshop speciali è una miscela di ingredienti, che abbiamo messo insieme e affinato con gli anni…gli insegnanti, le location, l’atmosfera…e naturalmente i nostri assistenti.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sono le prime persone che incontrate, quelle con le quali vi relazionate durante la settimana, che vi aiutano a superare piccoli problemi logistici…che vi aiutano con le traduzioni, vi indicano luoghi dove scattare, vi aiutano con il workflow….</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">E fanno tutto questo in completa rilassatezza e a proprio agio….</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Nell&#8217;ambito di TPW l&#8217;assistente gioca un ruolo centrale nell&#8217;interazione tra i partecipanti e i tutors.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Fare l&#8217;assistente significa essenzialmente tre cose: essere abili nell&#8217;incontrare le esigenze dei tutors in modo rapido ed efficace; saper condurre e gestire le richieste e i bisogni dei partecipanti; armonizzare e favorire le relazioni tra tutti i partecipanti ai workshops.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La nostra ambizione più alta è quella di riuscire a creare in pochi giorni un ambiente nel quale fotografia e relazioni si intreccino in un&#8217;unica fitta trama: i ritmi sono incalzanti ed entusiasmanti allo stesso tempo, e l&#8217;impegno richiesto è puntuale. I nostri assistenti, dunque, sono professionisti dinamici, appassionati, attenti e versatili. Offrono  un aiuto tecnico concreto durante le lezioni e gli shooting, si affiancano  a me  del affinchè tutto sia  <em>quasi </em> impeccabile, proprio come piace a noi del TPW!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In pieno spirito internazionale, i nostri assistenti parlano correntemente inglese e dimostrano abilità nella facilitazione comunicativa tra i nostri studenti e fotografi provenienti da tutto il mondo e garantiscono che le lezioni siano fruibili da tutti, e i tempi dedicati al non escludano nessuno!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sono giovani  appassionati di fotografia, con lo stesso vostro entusiasmo: in grado di aiutarvi a risolvere problemi, offrendo  un sorriso proprio nei momenti più concitati.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Forse sono fortunato, forse so scegliere bene, fatto sta che tutti i partecipanti si complimentano per il loro lavoro…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Fanno un percorso con noi poi, giustamente, intraprendono la loro carriera, spesso restando nel campo della fotografia, facendo tesoro di quello che hanno imparato…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Se vi interessa saperne di più, inviateci vostro CV a info@tpw.it</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>TPW Vision </strong>includes workshops dedicated to creativity in all its aspects: photography and video of course, but also drawing and painting, music, writing, art history, meditation, travel…and why not, some space dedicated also to food…. please send us your ideas and thoughts…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We will produce most of the workshop, but will also partner with other already existing.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Our format has proved to work very well, so why don&#8217;t apply it to other disciplines???</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The first <strong>TPW Vision </strong>workshop will be an <strong>intermediate guitar course</strong>, in Tuscany at the end of April.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The workshop will be conducted by <strong>Justin Sandercoe,</strong> who has been running for many years  the best guitar instruction website</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a title="justin" href="http://www.justinguitar.com" target="_blank"><strong>www.justinguitar.com</strong></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong></strong>we are working on the details right now: more soon.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">_______________________________________________________</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>TPW Vision</strong> offre workshop e itinerari dedicati alla creatività in tutte le sue forme: fotografia e video, naturalmente, ma anche disegno e pittura, musica, scrittura storia dell’arte, meditazione, viaggi…e perché no, spazio dedicato all’arte culinaria…fateci sapere le vostre idee e proposte…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Produrremo la maggior parte dei workshop, ma siamo anche aperti a collaborazioni con progetti che condividano la nostra filosofia.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il nostro formato sì è dimostrato efficace, perché non applicarlo ad altre discipline?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il primo progetto di TPW Vision sarà un workshop di <strong>chitarra</strong>, in Toscana s fine Aprile. In collaborazione con <strong>Justin Sandercoe</strong>, che da anni offre corsi di grande qualità on-line</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.justinguitar.com/"><strong>www.justinguitar.com</strong></a></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop • July 28 &#8211; Aug 03</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As a photographer, I got into fashion quite randomly. Certainly following my own idea of beauty, rather than a personal interest in clothes, or fashion brands.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I love natural light, and I’m not a big fan of photoshop magic. I prefer to walk instead of using long distance lenses; and to go find beauty in the real world, instead of recreating it in a studio environment.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This is going to be a reportage workshop, with fashion as a subject:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We’ll go through my work and the work of other photographers, as well as artists who have inspired me, so far. But, most importantly, we will spend time investigating your own personal idea of beauty. We will then bring it to life, together, through the day by day practice of photography.</p>
<p>We will work with models, and clothes from different stylists. A fashion shoot will be created within the wonderfull surroundings of Villa Lina.</p>
<p>This workshop is meant to be an opportunity to develop a vision and a personal style, outside the clichés of fashion photography: it is highly reccomended to photographers who want to enter this world, and also learn more on  how to shoot with models.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Filippo_Mutani_Small_PP.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3176" alt="Filippo Mutani" src="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Filippo_Mutani_Small_PP-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>Filippo Mutani is a Milan based worldwide contributor photographer for Getty Images.

He has been shooting corporate&amp;advertising for Giorgio Armani, Burberry, Campari, Pirelli and Moroccanoil.

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Workshop Estivi • 28 Luglio &#8211; 03 Agosto</span><strong><br />
</strong></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Da fotografo, sono entrato nella fotografia di moda abbastanza per caso. Sicuramente inseguendo una mia idea di bellezza, piuttosto che una qualche passione per gli abiti e le firme di moda.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Amo la luce naturale, e non sono un grande fan delle magie di photoshop. Preferisco camminare invece di usare il teleobiettivo, e andare a cercare la bellezza nel mondo reale, invece di doverla ricreare in uno studio fotografico.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Questo sarà un workshop di reportage, con la moda come soggetto.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Discuteremo il mio lavoro, quello di altri fotografi, e di artisti che mi hanno ispirato fino ad oggi. Ma, soprattutto, dedicheremo tempo a investigare sulla vostra personale idea di bellezza. E poi la faremo vivere insieme, attraverso la pratica fotografica quotidiana.</p>
<p>Lavoreremo con modelle, utilizzando abiti di diversi stilisti. Ricreeremo uno shoot di moda nella cornice di Villa Lina.</p>
<p>Questo workshop vuole essere un’opportunità per sviluppare una visione e uno stile fotografico personale, il più possibile lontano dai clichés della fotografia di moda E’ particolarmente indicato a fotografi che vogliono entrare in questo campo e imparare a come lavorare con modelle/i.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Filippo_Mutani_Small_PP.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3176" alt="Filippo Mutani" src="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Filippo_Mutani_Small_PP-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>Filippo Mutani, di base a Milano, è <em>worldwide contributor photographer</em> per Getty Images.

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 •  July 28 &#8211; Aug 03</span><br />
</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“I don’t know where to begin from. I don’t think photography is something you can teach. I don’t want to impose a method, nor a style. The most important thing is to be open about who you are and what you want to say. I will not have a real schedule to offer you. My efforts will be to deconstruct the used and abused points of reference in photography and help you to confront with yourself in a immediate way. Photographing will become a simple and direct way to be closer to who and what you love, rather than a technical excuse to hide behind. A street, a wall, a story, a person, ourselves, all those things together, whatever you like. I am against dividing photography into categories: for me documentary photography, social photography, personal photography, landscape, portraiture, etc do not mean a thing. What is important is the attention you pay to what you do. Good photographs, are such because they are true, genuine. They become so when you try to reach the truth that is inside you and follow your personal vision. Forget yourself, put yourself in a uncomfortable situation, don’t be afraid, enjoy all these things.

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Workshop Estivi 2013 • 28 Luglio &#8211; 03 Agosto</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“Non so da dove incominciare. Non credo che la fotografia si possa insegnare. Non voglio proporre un metodo o uno stile. La cosa che per me conta di piu&#8217; é l&#8217;apertura nei confronti di quello che si é e di quello che si ha da dire. Quindi non ho un vero e proprio programma da proporre, se non cercare di togliere comodi punti di riferimento, ed aiutare a fare lo sforzo di confrontarsi con se stessi in modo immediato, e fotografare di conseguenza, facendo in modo che la fotografia non sia un espediente tecnico-stilistico dietro cui nascondersi, ma un mezzo semplice e diretto per essere in comunione con ciò che amiamo. Una strada, un muro, una storia, una persona, noi stessi, tutte queste cose insieme, quello che preferite. Non ho mai trovato il minimo interesse nelle catalogazioni: per me riferirsi alla fotografia giornalistica, sociale, personale, di paesaggio, ritrattistica etc non significa assolutamente niente. L&#8217;unica cosa che conta é la cura che si mette in quello che si fa; le belle fotografie sono tali in quanto vere, autentiche, e lo diventano, di più o di meno, nella misura in cui si tende alla verità che abbiamo dentro, ognuno assecondando la propria differente natura, che ha tante sfumature. Dimenticare se stessi, mettersi a disagio, non aver paura, godere di tutte queste cose. Insomma, tutte le cose che mi ripeto ogni mattina quando mi guardo allo specchio.”</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Myanmar  •  February 5 -16, 2013</span></h6>
<p>Myanmar (ex Burma)  is the most challenging country in South East Asia. Full of contradictions and beauty. The political isolation, precluding any social development, has preserved the most pristine cultural environment in the region and photographers have been roaming the country for years. Our project, based on the long experience of many operators within the secluded borders, focuses on the cultural roots of modern Myanmar. All within the very geographical and cultural centre of the land, we will include the monumental vastness of Bagan, a local boat trip along the Irrawaddy river, and a drive into the most intact northern interior. The itinerary will start in Yangoon.</p>
<p>Following the philosophy of TPW,  we are not going to organize yet another photographic tour but a veritable collective workshop. Photography may be as varied as anyone can dream, but we’ll encourage working on a personal project that will help focus the whole experience, such as the Buddhist religious culture, a kaleidoscope of Pagodas and Monasteries crowded by thousands of saffron monks, or the worship of Spirits (this is the most devoted area to the Nats). Another focus could be a magnificent environment or the truest daily street life ever imaginable.</p>
<p>The program will start in Yangon, the original capital city, where we’ll visit the splendid Shwedagon pagoda, the most sacred and important religious monument in the country, and we’ll spend the first two nights there.</p>
<p>From here we’ll fly to Bagan,  the sacred city: the most important archeological site is an ancient capital where thousands of pagodas remain, spread out in a dry plain. We will experience yet another inside view that will allow us to experience the place with different opportunities than those offered to mass tourism. We will spend three nights in Bagan, with an excursion to Mount Popa, the Nats’ sacred spirit worship centre.</p>
<p>Then on the 6th day we will reach Mandalay, the old imperial capital and cultural centre of modern Myanmar. Here is a myriad of Buddhist monasteries, universities, and ancient monuments that will represent the best planning and introduction to our individual projects. We’ll spend three nights in Mandalay, visting Amarpura, the old capital, famous for silk production. We will reach, by boat, Mingun, the old royal city, .</p>
<p>From here we will fly to Inle Lake, with its floating gardens and one thosand pagodas  is one of the most spectacular landscapes on Earth where fishermen still use nets, with a thousand years old technique.</p>
<p>On the 11th day, we’ll fly back to Yangon, and spend the night there.</p>
<p>The workshop is over on 16th of February</p>

<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>BIOGRAPHY</strong></span></p>
<p>Born in Florence, Andrea studied geography at the local university. He continues to live between here, a home-place he considers not so much an urban center but a continuous source of inspiration, and Bangkok, ideal base to cover Asia.<br />
With the evolution of his vocation to explore man and places, Andrea has become a travel photographer specialized in geographic and social reportage in every part of the world. Today he works on assignment for major publications. His photographic books  on exotic destinations (<em>Indonesia, New Zealand, Morocco, South Africa, The Land of Buddha, Hinduism, Eastern Christianity</em>) have been published in addition to illustrated travel books on the major European subjects. He is the sole author of the photos in the Bonechi Publishers US book series (35 titles) and his book on prayer in the world&#8217;s major religions was published in 2007. A total of over 100 titles published internationally.<br />
Andrea has become especially known for his research on the use of existing light, which he combines with a formal yet personalized composition of his images, deeply influenced by his classical Florentine origins. He was one of the first explorers of the digital technology: his book “<em>Back in Town</em>”, dedicated to his first digital works, was published in 1998.<br />
He is holding workshops every year on Geographical and Digital Photography.<br />
The approach to Fine Art Photography came as a natural evolution of this professional career. His work has been exhibited both in Italy and abroad. He participated with a personal show at the VII Biennale di Fotografia in Turin and won the 1998 First Award in the Italian selection of the Fuji European Press Award.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Myanmar  •  February 5 -16, 2013</span></h6>
<p>La Birmania è lo stato più affascinante del Sud Est Asiatico. Piena di contraddizioni e bellezza: dalla dittatura militare alla più alta concentrazione di Pagode Dorate.</p>
<p>La situazione politica, che ha precluso lo sviluppo sociale, ha preservato l’ambiente culturale intatto, e i fotografi hanno esplorato per anni questa zona.</p>
<p>Il nostro progetto, basato sull’esperienza di diverse guide, è focalizzato sulle radici culturali del moderno Myanmar. Muovendoci  entro i confini sia geografici che culturali del paese, includeremo la grandezza monumentale di Bagan e un percorso in barca lungo il fiume Irrawaddy per raggiungere territori remoti del nord. Un itinerario che inizia nella mitica città di Mandalay, osservando  alcune delle più suggestive situazioni in Asia.</p>
<p>Seguendo la filosofia del TPW Orient, questo non sarà l’ennesimo tour fotografico, ma un workshop fotografico intenso e mirato. Il tipo di soggetti fotografici è più vasto di quello che potete sognare e incoraggeremo l’idea di lavorare su uno o due progetti personali che rendano l’idea dell’esperienza di questo viaggio e dello spirito del luogo. Dalla cultura religiosa buddista – un caleidoscopio di pagode e monasteri affollati di monaci nei loro abiti color zafferano &#8211; alla adorazione degli spiriti (questa area è particolarmente devota ai Nats), ad un paesaggio mozzafiato o agli aspetti di  vita quotidiana nei villaggi.</p>
<p>Il programma inizia da Yangon, la capitale economica, dove visiteremo la splendida pagoda di Shwedagon, il monumento religioso più sacro del paese, e dove trascorreremo le prime due notti.</p>
<p>Via aereo arriveremo al sito di Bagan, patrimonio dell’Unesco. E’ il sito più importante dal punto di vista archeologico, la vecchia capitale della quale restano centinaia di pagode sparse lungo la vallata. Avremo modo di vivere questa esperienza in maniera approfondita, diversamente dal mordi e fuggi del turismo di massa . Trascorreremo infatti tre notti a Bagan, con una visita al Monte Popa, il centro di adorazione degli spiriti sacri dei Nats.</p>
<p>Successivamente voleremo a Mandalay, la vecchia capitale imperiale e il centro culturale dell’attuale Myanmar. Qui troveremo un’altissima concentrazione di monasteri buddisti, università, antichi monumenti, dai quali prenderemo  spunto e ispirazione per pianificare i nostri progetti fotografici. Passeremo tre notti a Mandalay, prima di guidare nell’entroterra del paese, fino alla città di Monywar. Questa è fuori dai percorsi abituali, ma rappresenta il cuore del Myanmar, dove la vita ha gli stessi ritmi di cento anni fa.</p>
<p>Da qui ci trasferiremo al lago di Inle, famosa per i giardini galleggianti e le centomila pagode: è uno dei paesaggio più spettacolari sulla Terra, dove i pescatori usano ancora tecniche millenarie, usando reti tradizionali</p>
<p>Il decimo giorno torneremo a Yangon, dove passeremo la notte.</p>
<p>da dove  potrete proseguire il vostro viaggio o rientrare.</p>
<p>BIOGRAFIA</p>
<p>Nato a Firenze nel 1957, <strong>Andrea Pistolesi</strong> ha studiato  geografia alla locale università. Continua a vivere qui, in questo luogo  che considera più un’ispirazione che una città. Come evoluzione della  sua incessante voglia di viaggiare Andrea è divenuto un fotoreporter  specializzato nella documentazione umana e ambientale. Oggi lavora  continuamente per riviste italiane e internazionali quali Islands,  Travel &amp; Leisure, Geo, Departures, Hemispheres, Gulliver, Gente  Viaggi, Bell’Italia, Bell’Europa, Airone, Viajar, Rutas del Mundo, e  molte altre. Suoi volumi su destinazioni esotiche (Indonesia, Nuova  Zelanda, Marocco, Sud Africa, Asia Buddista) sono stati pubblicati  assieme a guide sulle maggiori destinazioni turistiche europee; è il  solo autore per le foto della collana dedicata dalla Casa Editrice  Bonechi agli Stati Uniti e sta realizzando una collana sulle maggiori  religioni del mondo edita dal Touring Club Italiano. Andrea è divenuto  particolarmente noto per la sua ricerca nell’uso delle luci che unisce a  una composizione molto personale delle immagini. Ogni anno tiene  workshops su la professione di reporter e l’uso del digitale.  L’approccio alla fotografia artistica è stata una naturale evoluzione  della sua maturità professionale. Ha tenuto mostre personali sia in  Italia che all’estero. Ha partecipato con una personale alla VII  Biennale di Fotografia in Torino e ha conseguito nel 1998 il primo posto  italiano per il Fuji European Press Award. Ha realizzato reportage  pubblicitari per clienti quali i calendari Iveco. Recente è il suo  interesse e sviluppo dell’elaborazione digitale, un mezzo che egli  definisce “la riconquista della camera oscura per il fotografo del  colore”.</p>

<p>Greg Gorman and I met more than 10 years ago, when we were running our TPW workshop in Tuscany. After a couple of years, we organized another successful workshop in Pantelleria Sicily…we have been in touch through the years and last January I literally bumped into him in Bologna, where he was presenting his new book at Arte Fiera. After a couple (more?) glasses of wine, we decided it was time to start another project together &#8211; something that could mix our passion for photography to our other passions, cooking and wine!  At the same time, I had just discovered an amazing place in central Italy, the ideal place for high-end workshops. The location is a fabulous estate not far from Rome.</p>
<p>It was easy to put the two things together, and we are now proud to announce the first edition of the Greg Gorman Italian Workshop. The workshop will be a mix of shooting with Greg and enjoying the food and wine of the area. We will have several shoots daily at extraordinary villas and native locals. Each morning the previous day&#8217;s work will be critiqued to help further the learning process.  The workshop will be kept to a maximum of 12 participants.  We will provide both a male and female model.</p>
<p>We hope you will join us for this extraordinary experience!</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Carlo Roberti</p>
<p>Director, Toscana Photographic Workshop</p>

<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Morocco • October  11-19 , 2013</span></h6>
<p>From the mythic city of Marrakech we will travel to Berber villages on the outskirts of the desert, where semi-nomadic peoples carry out an ancient and noble way of life.   At the conclusion we will meet on the majestic dunes that surround the Merzouga oasis, a place at the edge of the earth, the last outpost before the great sea of sand, the Sahara.</p>
<p>This 8-day workshop is carried out during a long journey, around 500 km, from Marrakech to the Merzouga oasis.  We will travel across the spectacular Valley of Draa and the Dadés and Todra Gorge, following an alternative itinerary, much different than those offered by touring companies.  We will find ourselves in direct contact with the atmosphere and environment of the desert,  meet the people who live there, the Berbers, and we will enjoy their celebrated hospitality.</p>
<p>The workshop will begin in Marrakech in the afternoon on Friday October 11, once all of the participants have arrived.  We will stay in a Riad, an ancient palace converted into a charming hotel, in the middle of the old Medina. The next day, after a group briefing, we will set out for the desert!</p>
<p>Through a secondary road, we will reach Ourzazate, that will be our base for the second part of the workshop. From here, we will visit the DadesValley the Dadés Gorges and finally the desert the Erg Chebbi Dunes.  One night, we will sleep in the desert, in a Berber tent, with breakfast among the dunes. Along the way, we will stop in Berber villages, visit cashbas, palm oasis, dunes.</p>
<p>On October 18th  we will return to Marrakech, to enjoy the city and for our farewell dinner. You will have the chance to explore the Medina for last minute sopping and – for those of you who still “don’t have enough” of the magic of African spirit - expand your visit for couple of days.</p>
<p>The aim is to share a great passion for photography and adventure, exploring the landscape of Morocco and getting to know its people. During the workshop every student must plan and elaborate on their own story, related to themes of life and the people living in a city (Marrakech) and  in the desert.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Marocco • October  11-19,  2013</span></h6>
<p>Marrakesh sarà il nostro punto di partenza. Da questa magica città partiremo alla volta dei villaggi berberi lambiti dal deserto, dove ancora oggi vivono genti semi-nomadi secondo uno stile di vita antico e dignitoso. Infine raggiungeremo le maestose dune vicino all’oasi di Merzouga, un paese ai confini della terra, l’ultimo avamposto prima dell’immenso mare di sabbia, il Sahara.</p>
<p>Questo workshop di 8 giorni si svilupperà in un viaggio di circa 500 km da Marrakech all’oasi di Merzouga. Ci sposteremo dalla meravigliosa Valle di Draa  alla gola di Dadés e Todra, seguendo un itinerario alternativo – diverso rispetto ai più classici proposti dai tour operator.  Ci ritroveremo a contatto con l’atmosfera e lo spazio del deserto dove incontreremo i popoli che qui abitano, i berberi, e godere così della loro proverbiale ospitalità.</p>
<p>Il workshop avrà inizio l’11 Ottobre ndl pomeriggio  Marrakesh, all’arrivo di tutti i partecipanti. Pernotteremo in una <i>Riad, </i>un antico palazzo di Medina, convertito ad hotel di charme. Dopo alcuni giorni a Marrakesh, per farci coinvolgere dal ritmo della città e entrare nello spirito del Marocco, partiremo alla volta del deserto!</p>
<p>Seguendo un itinerario secondario, raggiungeremo Ourzazate, che sarà la nostra base per quasta seconda parte del workshop, per poi spostarci verso le gole della valle di Dadés e le dune di Erg Chebbi. Visiteremo i laghi e incontreremo le popolazioni nomadi al confine con l’Algeria. Lungo il tragitto ci fermeremo presso i villaggi berberi e visiteremo le Cashbahs lungo la strada, con  vista tra le palme, oasi e dune..</p>
<p>Il 19 ottobre faremo ritorno a Marrakesh, per scoprire questa città e condividere insieme l’ultima cena prima della partenza. Avremo l’opportunità di visitare di nuovo Marrakesh e se si desidera prolungare di un paio di giorni la nostra permanenza.</p>
<p>L’idea è di condividere la passione della fotografia e dell’avventura, alla scoperta del paesaggio del Marocco e delle sue genti. Durante i giorni del workshop ogni studente dovrà elaborare un proprio progetto legato ai temi indagati sulla vita e le popolazioni del deserto.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop  2013 • July 21 &#8211; 27</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The life of a photographer is to imagine and create images meant to communicate.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“To be” a photographer is a profession, it is to live the images, to live a photographer’s life.  Often this idea is misleading and the photographer is compared to a rockstar&#8230;aside from very few cases, there are thousands of professional photographers who avoid the public spotlight, but nonetheless produce consistently high quality images every day.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">One doesn’t become a photographer because he’s got a camera, just like you don’t become a writer because you’ve got a computer or a musician because you’ve got a guitar.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For personal creativity, which is encouraged and cultivated through our visual culture, it is important to be aware of the instruments we use each day in our profession. The tools available in today’s market guarantee a certain level of quality; attention to light and composition can really make a photo jump off the page.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">With this workshop I hope to return the “fundamentals” of what it means to be a photographer: cameras, goals, creative use of light, postproduction with a professional approach. You will learn to plan an image and execute it and you will work outdoors and indoors with the proper professional tools and instruments.  We will talk about ethics, discipline and organization. We will approach a new technical related theme each day, that will be put into practice through demonstrations and we will examine our results together.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It is a workshop designed for those who wish to enter the field of professional photography, but also for any photographer interested in understanding both natural and artificial light.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Workshop Estivi 2013 • 21 &#8211; 27 Luglio</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La vita di un fotografo è immaginare e realizzare immagini destinate a comunicare.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“Fare” il fotografo è una professione, è vivere delle immagini che si producono, vivere una vita da fotografo. Spesso questo concetto è fuorviato e il fotografo è paragonato ad una rockstar… A fronte di questi pochi casi, ci sono invece migliaia di professionisti, che evitano accuratamente di apparire nel mondo del gossip, ma che producono costantemente immagini  di elevata qualità che vediamo tutti i giorni.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Non si diventa fotografi solo perché si ha una macchina fotografica, come non si diventa scrittori grazie al computer o  musicisti attraverso una chitarra. Alla creatività personale, che comunque spesso va incoraggiata e coltivata attraverso una cultura delle immagini, bisogna affiancare la conoscenza degli strumenti che usiamo ogni giorno nella nostra professione. Le attrezzature disponibili sul mercato ci garantiscono risultati mediamente ottimi, l&#8217;attenzione nei confronti della luce e la composizione può far decollare la forza delle immagini realizzate.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Con questo workshop, mi prefiggo di recuperare i &#8220;fondamentali&#8221; dell&#8217;essere fotografo: macchine, obiettivi, uso creativo della luce, postproduzione il tutto finalizzato ad un&#8217;approccio professionale della fotografia. Imparerete a progettare un&#8217;immagine e a realizzarla e si lavorerà in esterno ed in interni  attrezzati con il materiale necessario alla professione. Parleremo di etica, disciplina e organizzazione. Ogni giorno affronteremo nuove tematiche relative ala tecnica, che verranno messe in pratica attraverso demo e esamineremo i risultati ottenuti.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">E’ un workshop indicato per chi vuole entrare nel campo della fotografia professionale, ma anche a chi è interessato all’utilizzo della luce sia naturale che artificiale.</p>

<p>Join Ami Vitale for this enlightening week as she guides you to take your passion for photography and make a difference in your life’s work.  The week long workshop will focus on how to take strong still images and turn them into compelling stories that make a difference.<br />
You develop a keen sense of what goes into creating and sustaining a long term project, generate ideas for funding, and discuss possible outlets for your images such as grant writing, working with NGO&#8217;s, creating multimedia slideshows, gallery exhibits or books.  Classroom hours provide you the time to hear Ami&#8217;s lectures, ask questions and learn not just how to create beautiful images but how to edit them into a cohesive, artful story. She speaks openly about how she works in difficult environments when there are cultural sensitivities, as well as the ethical issues she has encountered in her career.</p>
<p>Finally, Ami will talk about her transition as a still photographer to making short films, and how photographers can find a niche in today&#8217;s changing world of photojournalism. She believes this is a perfect time to find opportunity and tell the stories that need to be told to new audiences once thought unreachable, now accessible because of technology.

<h3><span style="color: #ff0000;">Cape Cod, USA • September 30-OCTOBER 6, 2012</span></h3>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">It is in autumn, when the tourist have gone, the mist comes in from the ocean and seagull sing their songs, the air is crisp,  the light is sharp  that is when Cape Cod is at its best…and so is the light. The same light that lured so many artists, from Edward Hopper, who moved to Truro in 1944, and used it as the subjects for many of his paintings, to Hans Hoffmann, to the quiet light in Joel Meyerowitz’ photographs in the book <em>Cape Light</em>. Cape Cod has been an art colony for over a century and people like: Milton Avery, Robt Motherwell, Willem Dekooning, Red Grooms, Andy Wharhol all relished their time there. It has always attracted artists….</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Our workshop, led by John Goodman, will totally immerse in this atmosphere. We will spend our week finding inspiration out of simple everyday things: landscapes, shells on the beach, empty houses…and we will be also photographing  people in this open and timeless landscape</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The atmosphere is magic and will lead us to look at daily life with new eyes, and find stories to tell with our camera. In this way, you will re-discover you passion for photography, find new energy and insights in your images.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">We will all stay in a small hotel, and spend the day between shooting and critique, both on individual and group sessions. And we will explore the area around us looking, catching the magic of the place.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">It will be a very intimate workshop, where we will spend a lot of time together, sharing our experiences and passion for photography and art in general.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">We will all come back with incredible memories, and strong images!</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • July 28 &#8211; Aug 03</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Who are we?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Who are we when we&#8217;re behind closed doors?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When we&#8217;re at our most private and vulnerable? Who is that person we don&#8217;t let everyone see?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This workshop will focus on personal photography. The pictures you take reflect aspects of who you are, and through photography you can challenge yourself to be honest, naked and vulnerable. By integrating yourself, you will find the believable picture. I will look at your personal portfolios as well as show you my own pictures. I will also share with you the work of other photographers and film makers who have inspired and influenced  me in my photography.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You will work on assignments and I will look at your contacts every day. Most of all I want us to have a good time, learning new things about ourselves.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Chi siamo?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Chi siamo nel nostro privato?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Chi siamo veramente nel nostro lato più celato e vulnerabile? Chi è quella persona che sappiamo nascondere?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Questo workshop sarà incentrato sulla fotografia personale. Le immagini che faremo, infatti, rispecchieranno gli aspetti più segreti del nostro essere. La fotografia ci porrà davanti ad una sfida dettata dalla sincerità dello scatto. Saremo vulnerabili e spogliati dai pregiudizi, per trovare così la nostra vera immagine.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Non solo guarderò il vostro portfolio e vi mostrerò le mie fotografie ma al tempo stesso condividerò con voi il lavoro di altri fotografi e film makers che hanno influenzato il mio modo di lavorare.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ogni giorno vi darò dei compiti che valuteremo insieme. Trascorreremo dei bei momenti – la cosa più importante &#8211; per scoprire cose nuove su noi stessi!</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Tuscany 2012 • July 29 &#8211; August 4</span></h6>
<h6>In 2012 we will offer two workshops with Settimio Benedusi</h6>
<p>This one, in Tuscany, on <strong>WHY</strong> to take photographs<strong> </strong></p>
<p>The second, in Sicily, on <strong>HOW</strong> to shoot a professional beauty assignment</p>
<p>Two different paths, with different goals but both born with same idea: to help you become a better photographer, from a technical and aesthetic point of view.</p>
<p>In these days where big mutations – technical and cultural – are taking place, it is absolutely normal to get “dazed and confused”, with a sense of loss, not able to find anymore (or find for the first time!) the incentive to produce something personal and original.</p>
<p>For photographers, you might start going in one direction and ending up in a total different one. During this route, you might loose the reasons that pushed you into photography on a first instance. Your vision is obstructed by the rhythm of daily life, and you loose your vision and the capacity of <em>seeing</em> things.</p>
<p>This workshop is for experienced photographers who want to go over their temporary “creativity block” and find again strong motivation in their work, and also to young photographers, who want to start a profession with clear ideas, with no stereotypes.</p>
<p>The final goal of this workshop is to have every participant produce an individual photographic project, totally concentrated on his/her vision and life.</p>
<p>During the workshop there will be models, to help you express, by photographing others, your photography</p>
<p>BIOGRAPHY</p>
<p><strong>Settimio Benedusi </strong>was born in Italy forty-six years ago. Now he lives in Milan where he runs his photographic studio.<br />
He had his first camera when he was 12 years old and from that moment he was just thinking about taking the perfect picture, using beauty, emotions and feeling.<br />
He is a professional photographer for 20 years now and travelled all over the world, working for many magazines (GQ, Max, Vogue, Cosmo, Marie Claire, Sports Illustrated and Elle…) and so many clients (Versace, Fila, Armani and Swatch…).<br />
Settimio is a beauty hunter, he looks at the subject and shoots – ‘that’s the only way for fixing moments that otherwise would be gone like tears in the rain’<br />
He also likes to write about photography on his blog  <a href="http://www.benedusi.it/blog">http://www.benedusi.it/blog</a> and on the “Corriere della Sera”, the major Italian newspaper, web site <a href="http://photobackstage.corriere.it/">http://photobackstage.corriere.it/</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.benedusi.it/">www.benedusi.it</a></p>
<p>____________________________</p>
<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Toscana 2012 • 29 Luglio-4 Agosto</span></h6>
<p>Nel 2012 sono proposti due workshop di Settimio Benedusi.</p>
<p>Il primo, in Sicilia, sul <strong>COME</strong> si realizza un servizio fotografico professionale.</p>
<p>Il secondo, in Toscana, sul <strong>PERCHE’</strong> si fotografa.</p>
<p>Due diversi percorsi con finalità e intenti molto diversi tra loro ma entrambi nati con il medesimo desiderio di migliorare in maniera pratica e concreta la qualità dei progetti fotografici dei partecipanti.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Listening to your Heartbeats</strong></span></span></p>
<p>In questi tempi di grandi cambiamenti, tecnici e culturali, è assolutamente normale sentirsi disorientati, non trovare più (o non trovare ancora!) gli stimoli per produrre qualcosa di intimo ed originale. A noi fotografi capita infatti spesso di partire verso una direzione e di finire poi in una completamente diversa. Durante questo processo perdiamo di vista la ragione che ci ha spinto inizialmente nel mondo della fotografia. La nostra visione viene ostacolata dalla complessità della vita quotidiana, perdendo la capacità di <em>vedere</em><strong> </strong>limitandoci<strong> </strong>solo a <em>guardare</em>. Questo workshop è rivolto sia a fotografi con una certa esperienza, che vogliono riscoprire la loro visione attraverso un progetto, ma anche a fotografi alle prime armi, che vogliono iniziare con la mente chiara e sgombra da vecchi stereotipi sul mestiere di fotografo.</p>
<p>Il fine ultimo e concreto di questo workshop è quello di far produrre un progetto fotografico ad ogni allievo, totalmente e completamente strutturato su di lui: sulle sue sensazioni, sulla sua cultura, sulla sua propria ed unica visione del mondo e della vita.</p>
<p><strong>BIOGRAFIA</strong></p>
<p><strong>Settimio Benedusi </strong>è nato in Italia quarantasei anni fa. Ora vive a Milano, dove si trova il suo studio fotografico.<br />
La sua prima macchina fotografica gli viene regalata all’età di 12 anni e da quel momento il suo obiettivo è fare la foto ‘perfetta’ cercando di usare la bellezza e le emozioni. Settimio è un fotografo professionista da oltre 20 anni, ha viaggiato in tutto il mondo scattando per tante riviste (GQ, Max, Vogue, Cosmo, Marie Claire, Sports Illustrated ed Elle…) e per innumerevoli clienti di pubblicità (Versace, Fila, Armani, Swatch…) Settimio insegue la bellezza, sempre. Inquadra il soggetto e scatta “questo è l’unico modo per immortalare i  momenti che altrimenti verrebbero persi come lacrime nella pioggia”. Settimio inoltre scrive di fotografia sul suo blog  e sul sito del “Corriere della Sera”, il più importante quotidiano italiano.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Edinburgh • May 12 &#8211; 19, 2012</span></h6>
<p>Workshop members will bring a selection of no more than 20 images, preferably in a form easily projected digitally, or possibly in print form, and the first step will be a critique and discussion of their work. This will be done with myself and the whole group. On the basis of this knowledge photographers will  be sent out to work on different projects in Edinburgh. They will work digitally. It is expected that they will have done some research and have at least one idea of what they think would be interesting to work on, though it may be that they end up with another assignment given by myself.</p>
<p>The new work will be assessed and critiqued each day and the photographers will be pushed to further develop the work they are doing and to engage in a collective and personal edit of that work. As the work and week develop the work will be edited and sequenced to become part of a group book on Edinburgh.</p>
<p><strong>The emphasis is on a personal interpretation of Edinburgh. It is about you expressing yourself as an individual author. You are not making a catalogue or a tourist brochure!</strong></p>
<p>The final outcome will be a pdf file of a layout of a possible book containing work from all the participants, that I hope, everybody can be a little bit proud of.</p>
<p>The level of the participants’ experience will vary, but it will be expected that everyone has a sound understanding of the technical side of photography, in that they understand the basics of digital photography and can adjust digital files in a program such as Photoshop. This is not a technical workshop, but one that tries to help you express yourself as a photographer and develop your own eye. This is not easy.</p>
<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Edinburgh</span><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> </span></h6>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">a personal note from Carlo Roberti</span></p>
<p>One of my motto is “I would like to be a student in all the workshop I organize!”.</p>
<p>Apart from Tuscany, all the other locations of our Travel Workshop are selected for different reasons: the possibility of offering a wide range of subjects, the light, the daily life…many of these locations have been chosen after your suggestions, others are personal choices. This one in particular, has been my decisio: I used t go to Edinburgh many years ago, as i was attracted by this beautiful city.</p>
<p>A couple of weeks ago (January 2012) I went back in order to scout the place again, for this workshop, after 30 years (!) and i fall in  love again with it. The atmosphere that was there years ago still exist, plus  a new spirit, new energy. Walking and photographing in the capital of Scotland is an experience you should not  miss. There are so many different aspects,of daily life that will translate into strong photographs. People are very kind, helpful. Old areas, such as Leith and the docks, have gone through deep changes, the city center is a mix of residencial areas, art galleries, shops, classy and popular restaurants and pubs</p>
<p>Cultural life is at his highest, night life is full of surprises…</p>
<p>In the first instance  I was thinking of organizing the workshop in August, during the festival. But the thoughts of thousands of people coming from all over the world, and then the problem for lodging and eating out made me choose for a better time of the year. May will be perfect. Of course, it might always rain…please read <em>The Right Attitude to Rain</em> by Alexander Mac Call Smith….and also Ian <em>Rankin’s Inspector Rebus</em> novels….It will make you run and get your ticket to Edinburgh!</p>

<p>___________________________________________________________</p>
<p>Edinburgo</p>
<p>I partecipanti dovranno portare con se una selezione di un massimo di 20 immagini, preferibilmente in formato digitale. oppure su stampa. Questo servirà per il primo incontro e per la critica e discussione del loro lavoro.</p>
<p>Questo sarà fatto da me insieme al gruppo. Sulla base di questo, i fotografi inizieranno a lavorare su diversi progetti su Edimburgo. Si lavorerà in digitale. Mi aspetto che i fotografi partecipanti abbiano fatto un minimo di ricerca preliminare su Edimburgo, e che abbiano almeno un’idea su un progetto che vorrebbero portare avanti,  anche se può capitare che nel corso del workshop lavorino su un progetto differente che io assegnerò.</p>
<p>Il nuovo lavoro sarà organizzato e criticato ogni giorno, e i fotografi saranno spronati a sviluppare il progetto sul quale stanno lavorando, e ad aiutarsi in gruppo e individualmente all’edit di quel lavoro. Mentre i progetti e la settimana entrano nel vivo,, il lavoro sarà editato e sequenziato per diventare un libro collettivo su Edinburgo.</p>
<p>L’enfasi è su una interpretazione personale di Edimburgo. E’ su di voi come autori personali. Non state realizzando un catalogo o una brochure per turisti…</p>
<p>Il prodotto finale sarà un file pdf del layout di un libro che contiene il lavoro di tuti voi, e spero che ognuno potrà essere orgoglioso del risultato finale.</p>
<p>Il livello dell’esperienza dei partecipanti sarà vario, ma ci aspettiamo che tutti abbiano una solida base tecnica, che conoscano le basi della fotografia digitale e che possano lavorare in un programma come Photoshp. Non sarà un workshop tecnico, ma un workshop che vuole aiutarti  a esprimerti come fotografo e a sviluppare la tua visione. Non è facile.</p>

<p>Who are you? What do you know to be true? What do you question? What are your obsessions? When I&#8217;m confronted with a person&#8217;s work, this is what intrigues me. Wether you work only with photography or combine it with text, video, music, this workshop will challenge you to go beyond the borders. To see photography as not being about photography, not about style, not confined to a category like documentary or reportage, but transcending all this. Photography as a revelation of what it means to be alive &#8211; for the photographer and the life depicted.</p>
<p>BIOGRAPHY</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • July 28 &#8211; Aug 03</span><br />
</span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">With small practical exercises and exploring the different stapes of a personal research, Laurence Leblanc will push the students to discover their inner sensitivity. A sensitivity which has strength, fragility, which can be intensified with picture or on the contrary rejected.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The goal is to go beyond the surface of things, to find personnel obsession, to confront our choices, our wishes, our vision to what is around us… At the end to understand our own approach, always researching sense and coherence.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This kind of approach demands total commitment: during the photo sessions, by letting oneself be permeated by the setting and the people, and by stubbornly searching for the right point of view and the right texture; and during the editing phase, by confronting the images with themselves, the subject and other ways of seeing.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Day by day they will intensify an approach that is sensitive, people-oriented and constantly in search of meaning and sensation.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Can all dreams be found somewhere else?</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><em>Laurence Leblanc silently follows her own solitary artistic path in the field of contemporary creative photography. Nurtured by a deep knowledge of photography and the understanding of its history, she deliberately avoids scattering away her curiosity from topics of interest, broadening instead her approach in the producing of her images. Her strongest ally is time, the one given to observe and to mature. A member of both the VU gallery and agency in Paris, she regularly publishes and exhibits her work.</em></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><em>From her first explorations in Cambodia to her work on « lost objects », art critics who have written about her images, use a wide array of adjectives as they attempt without ever completely succeeding to give shape her style: </em><em>dispelling, impressionistic, delicate, discreet, melancholic, vibrating, dreamlike…Yet, if any of these qualifiers are able to somewhat define her subtle attempts and the inner turmoil her photographs provoke, they also bring confusion.</em></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><em>She is, in the world of photography a rare example of restraint, humility and self-control. For her, the act of taking a picture grows from gradual impregnation with the subject and his or her environment. The resulting pictures are often a carefully thought-out, precise, and elaborate developments. Particularly sensitive to the violence in the world and to the chaos of destinies, she rids herself of all documentary curiosity in order to focus deeply on what is not visible: the muteness of an ancient pain, the texture of an absent look.</em></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><em>Commenting on portraits of hers, Cambodian filmmaker Rithy Panh wrote: “Her pictures look like souls…their fuzzyness is not fuzzy, their grainy appearance is not grain, life is not exactly life. Yet it is not death either.  I like being led on this narrow territory between the two.”</em></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><em>By tightening the flux of primary emotions and rejecting today’s urge for “hyper-speed”, she concentrates on taking pictures of the traces of events, of landscapes, of faces that linger within her.</em></em></p>

Self-taught as s a photographer, she began working in 1994 for a not-for-profit organization involved in helping the homeless in the French capital. She covered an international one-month tour in Asia by British singer-performer Peter Gabriel for whom she would work with for two years.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Very early on, she was attracted by the issue of childhood that led her to an in-depth reflection on the topics of time, identity and memory that her hazy and dreamlike pictures from Cambodia would express. She extended her visual investigation on the same theme in other parts of the world (Brazil, Cuba, Congo, Niger, Sierra Leone, Somalia, etc.).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">She has won prestigious awards such as the Villa Médicis “Hors des murs” scholarship in 2000, and the HSBC Foundation prize in photography in 2003. In 2009, her exhibition “Seul l’air” (Only Air) consisting of work from Africa was presented at the 40<sup>th</sup> International Photography Festival in Arles (France). Her photographs are part of many private and museum collections including that of the prestigious National Trust for Contemporary Art, in France. Laurence Leblanc is represented by the “VU” Agency in Paris.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Workshop Estivi 2013 • 28 Luglio &#8211; 03 Agosto<br />
</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Con piccoli esercizi pratici e l’esplorazione delle varie tappe di una ricerca personale, Laurence Leblanc spingerà gli studenti a scoprire la loro fondamentale sensibilità.  Una sensibilità che ha forza, fragilità, che potrebbe essere intensificata o diminuita con una immagine.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">L’obiettivo ‘e di andare oltre la superficie, a trovare l’ossessione personale,  confrontare le nostre scelte, i nostri desideri, la nostra visione di quello che sta intorno di noi&#8230;Alla fine capire il nostro approccio, sempre ricercando tra i sensi e la coerenza.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Questo tipo di approccio richiede un impegno totale: durante il servizio fotografico, lasciandosi  assorbire dalla gente e dall’ambiente,  cercando un nuovo punto di vista e la consistenza giusta.  Poi durante la fase di editing, a confrontare le proprie immagini, il soggetto e altri modi di vedere,</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ogni giorno gli studenti sperimenteranno e intensificheranno  un approccio che sarà sensibile, sociale e sempre in ricerca di significati e sentimenti.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><span style="color: #ff0000;">_____________________________</span></em></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Tutti i sogni possono essere trovati da un&#8217;altra parte?</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Laurence Leblanc in silenzio, segue la sua sola via artistica nel campo della fotografia creativa contemporanea.  Coltivato da una conoscenza della storia di fotografia, il suo approccio ‘e concentrato sulla produzione delle immagini.  Lei è in alleanza con il tempo, che dà la possibilità di crescere e sviluppare.  Un membro di entrambe il VU Gallery e Agency a Parigi, pubblica e mostra spesso le sue opere. </em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Dalle sue prime esplorazioni in Cambogia al suo lavoro su “lost objects” (oggetti persi) i critici dicono mille cose delle sue immagini ma non arrivano mai a una descrizione giusta del suo stile: fragile, melancolico, vibrante, un sogno, impressionistico&#8230;Però, se queste parole servono come tentativi, portano anche più confusione. </em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Lei è fra pochi nel mondo della fotografia, un esempio di umiltà, auto-controllo e moderazione.  Per lei, fare una foto ‘e un processo graduale che viene fuori con tempo con il soggetto e l’ambiente. Le immagini finale sono molto precise, elaborate e pensate.  Particolarmente sensibile alla violenza nel mondo ed il caos del destino Laurence si libera della curiosità documentaristica per  trovare quello che ‘e invisibile; il silenzio del dolore antico, la consistenza di uno sguardo mancato. </em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Commentando su i sui ritratti, Rithy Panh, cineasta cambogiano, scrisse: “Le sue immagini sembrano delle anime&#8230;la confusione non è confusione, la grana apparente non è grana, la vita non è precisamente vita, e neanche la morte.  Mi piace essere guidato in questo territorio fra questi due concetti… </em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Alleggerendo il flusso di emozioni primarie e rifiutando il mito contemporaneo della velocità a tutti i costi, Laurence si concentra sul fatto di fare le foto delle tracce di eventi, di paesaggi, delle facce che rimangono dentro di lei.</em></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Fin dall’ inizio le interessava l’infanzia ed è stata questa curiosità che l&#8217;ha portata a indagare  sul concetto di tempo, identità e memoria &#8211; come appare nelle immagini della  Cambogia. Ha seguito questa indagine visuale in tutto il mondo:  Brasile, Cuba, Congo, Niger, Sierra Leone, Somalia, ed altri posti.

<p style="text-align: justify;">What will be covered:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>How to light for beauty and the nude</li>
<li>Developing your style</li>
<li>Using lighting to create mood and drama</li>
<li>Natural light, studio strobes, hotlights</li>
<li>How to use simple lighting found around your location</li>
<li>How to feel confident with studio equipment</li>
<li>Making your model comfortable</li>
<li>Making yourself confident with the model</li>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Robert_Farber_2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3212" alt="Robert Farber" src="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Robert_Farber_2-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>Robert Farber’s style has influenced generations of photographers. His painterly, impressionistic style captures the essence of composition in every genre, including nudes, still life, landscapes and architecture. His ten photo art books have sold over half a million copies.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis brought Farber into Doubleday for the publication of his book “By The Sea,” which won the Art Director’s Award for color photography. Aside from numerous creative awards, Robert Farber also received the Photographer of the Year from PMA (Photographic Manufacturers Association), ASP International Award from the PPA (Professional Photographers of America) and The American Society of Photographers. This award was given to those who’ve made a significant contribution to the science and art of photography. Some previous recipients of this award include Dr. Edwin Land (inventor of the Polaroid), George Hurrell, and National Geographic.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Farber’s work with nudes in fine art as well as in the commercial realm is known and respected. He has lectured for Ogilvy &amp; Mather on the “Nude in Advertising.” ASMP requested to use Farber’s nudes as an examples of the artistic application in support of the National Endowment of Arts, after its backing of the controversial Mapplethorpe/Serrano exhibit. His book, “Farber Nudes,” was also included the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis estate collection.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Farber’s fine-art photographs have been published in virtually every form. Farber has exhibited in galleries and museums world-wide. He’s lectured at the Smithsonian Institute, The George Eastman House, as well as Universities and professional groups throughout the United States, Japan, Australia and Europe.

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • July 28 &#8211; Aug 03</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La fotografia di nudo e la cattura della sua bellezza sono molto più di una bella fotografia. Si arriva dentro a una persona e se ne coglie l’essenza per creare una nuova atmosfera, lontana dalla luce quotidiana.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In questo workshop si studieranno tutti i modi per catturare la bellezza, aldilà del viso, del corpo o del carattere della modella. Non solo lavoreremo con la luce naturale e le luci da studio ma vi mostrerò anche come usare quelle che si posso trovare in casa.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Imparerete a interagire con le modelle, creare un rapporto con loro, per far sentire entrambi a proprio agio. Parleremo delle ultime tecnologie digitali legate allo scatto e alla stampa e indagheremo come pubblicare e diffondere le vostre immagini.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Contenuti:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Le luci per il nudo</li>
<li>Come sviluppare un proprio stile</li>
<li>L’uso delle luci per creare atmosfera</li>
<li>La luce naturale, studio strobes e hotlight</li>
<li>Come usare le luci che si trovano nella location</li>
<li>Come utilizzare le attrezzature dello studio</li>
<li>Come comportarsi con le modelle</li>
<li>Marketing, editoria, promozione del proprio lavoro</li>

<p><strong><span style="color: #ffffff;">This will be a special workshop.</span></strong></p>
<p>Most of you know Antonin Kratochvil work and his very personal approach to portraiture and photography.</p>
<p>Maybe not all of you know that Antonin was born in Prague, and that, after living many years in the US, mainly New York, he decided to go back to his hometown.</p>
<p>We will have the chance to see Prague through the eyes of a “native”, and at the same time with the “clean” eyes of someone who goes back after many years and re-discovers his place.</p>
<p>There are many ways to approach such a city as Prague: Antonin</p>
<p>will have you work on mysteries and legends of Prague: very abstract and mysterious Tito Brahe, the Golem, the alchemists, Rabbi Loew, dr. Faustus, Jewish cemeteries…and from there, move into present life and see how the two worlds coexists in Prague.</p>
<p>Portraits, hidden locations, night shooting and daily life will the starting subjects of your photography during this workshop. Be ready for a full immersion in a world of old legends…</p>
<p>There will be daily group and individual critiques, and different assignments for each participant.</p>
<p>____________________________</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>PRACTICAL INFORMATION</strong></span></p>

<p>Accommodations &amp; Meals: we have reserved rooms at a local hotel that will also be the base for our workshop. Costs vary according to the size of the room and number of persons in the room. Once you confirm the participation, we will confirm your room and you will pay the hotel directly. Meals, except for 2 common dinners, will be independent and paid separately.<br />
Meeting point: we will meet the participants in the afternoon (4 pm) of the day of the beginning of the workshop.  The workshop is over at noon on the last day.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">No car needed.</span></p>
<p>What to bring:<br />
Bring your laptop, with everything that goes with it: cables, chargers, card readers, and your photo equipment. Bring an extra body, in case something happens to your camera, and we suggest to bring the minimum amount of lenses.<br />
Consider an external hard disk to make a back-up of your daily shooting.</p>
<p>___________________________________</p>
<p><strong>Questo sarà un workshop particolare.</strong></p>
<p>Molti di voi conoscono Antonin Kratochvil e il suo approccio alla fotografia.</p>
<p>Forse non tutti però sanno che Antonin è originario di Praga, e che dopo molti anni negli Stati Uniti è tornato nella sua città natale.</p>
<p>Quindi, vedremo la città sia con gli occhi di un “nativo”, ma anche con lo stupore di chi ci torna dopo tanto tempo.</p>
<p>Ci sono molti modi per avvicinarsi a una città come questa: Antonin vuole partire dai suoi misteri e leggende, per darne una dimensione astratta: Tito Brahe, il mito del Golem, il Rabbino Loew, Dr. Faustus, il cimitero ebraico, e da lì condurci verso la realtà odierna, e vedere come le due possono coesistere in un luogo magico come Praga.</p>
<p>Quindi  ritratti, ambientazioni, scorci notturni e soprattutto la vita quotidiana saranno i nostri soggetti, insieme agli aspetti più globalizzati e il contrasto tra i due.</p>
<p>Siate pronti ad una full immersion in un mondo di antiche leggende.</p>
<p>Ogni giorno ci saranno critiche individuali e di gruppo, saranno assegnati incarichi personali, a seconda del progetto che ogni singolo partecipante vuole sviluppare.</p>

<h6></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Bangkok is the ideal base for discovering the innumerable faces of contemporary Asia. It is a very modern capital and pleasant city to live in, but it also remains deeply immersed in the eastern culture, Buddhist spirituality, and regional politics.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">All of the aspects that made this city famous are still here: a national spirit that has never been broken by colonial domination, the artistic grandeur of golden temples and sacred places are experienced intensely, the nightlife that challenges the imagination and goes well beyond the expected, and the nature, both on the coasts and inland, that is so famous it doesn’t need a description.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Center  of  our workshop  will be a hotel in the historic heart of the city, in the center of lively situations both day and night, but it is also self-contained in a sort of green oasis that guarantees the necessary tranquility  and intimacy to post-produce the images captured in the metropolis. The hotel is easily accessible at any moment and reachable within a few minutes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Bangkok is certainly a city  that offers the most ideas, stimuli and technological support in the world.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #e22607;">Bangkok, TAILANDIA, • 26  Gennaio / 2 Febbraio, 2013</span></h6>
<h6></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Bangkok è la base ideale per scoprire gli innumerevoli volti dell’Asia contemporanea. E’ una capitale modernissima, una città piacevole da vivere, ma resta profondamente immersa nella cultura orientale, nella spiritualità buddista, nella politica regionale.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Gli aspetti che l’hanno resa famosa sono ancora tutti qui. Uno spirito nazionale mai piegato da dominazioni coloniali. La grandiosità artistica di templi dorati e luoghi sacri vissuti intensamente. La vita notturna che sfida la fantasia e riesce ad andare bel oltre l’ovvio. Una natura, sia sul mare che nell’interno, tanto famosa da non necessitare descrizioni.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La sede del nostro workshop è un albergo molto caratteristico  nel cuore storico della città, nel centro di situazioni vivaci giorno e notte, ma in una sorta di oasi verde da garantire quella tranquillità necessaria a sintetizzare e postprodurre  la ricchezza di situazioni catturate nella metropoli. Che resta accessibile in ogni momento e in pochi minuti.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Certamente una location che non potrebbe offrire più spunti, stimoli e supporto tecnologico al mondo.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;"> </span></h6>
<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Venice Italy • March 9-16, 2013</span></h6>
<p align="center">
<p style="text-align: justify;">In March, Venice is her self at peace. Far fewer travelers. No tourists. Less chaos. Love lives and rules in the streets of Venice but March creates a stage for pleasure seekers like no other time of year. The monochrome of winter will give way to the new light of spring. We will lose ourselves and make new memories in the labyrinth of shadowed walkways and open piazzas layered by the mosaic colors off water, land and sky. At night, this city wears a  more seductive mask. It&#8217;s the Venice Donna would often wander, listening for the whispering of lovers, making portraits of artists like Jasper Johns  during the Venice Biennale.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This will be a workshop that goes beyond the linear process of taking  pictures. It will be personal and unpredictably emotional and fun .</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Class is limited to 14 participants : this class is for people who  wish to work on street photography, under the wing of one of the world&#8217;s expert in this area.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At the same time, Donna will collaborate with Italian Agent Daria Bonera, to offer the right approach. You will learn how to structure a successful photo-story, with narrative captions that give more than the basic facts, that tell stories that you can be proud to show when finished from planning to editing and publishing.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There will be daily group and individual critiques with Donna and Daria. The &#8220;Double D&#8221; method has been known to open up the hardest head of any photographer on the planet.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Intimacy is the center of Donna’s work, from partner violence, to tender love, to crazy, even freakish, sex. It is her personal style as well, in life and in teaching. She has to know you, inside and out. Then through her own stories and photographs she find ways to make you think more deeply about the human heart, to pull you into her zone. This is essential in order for you to wander unfettered and free to capture private moments between strangers without hesitation.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Venice is among the most photographed places anywhere; its easy to fall into cliché here. The challenge will be to produce images not only about the place and the people, but to stop hiding behind your own mask.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The water in the canals will not only reflect the shadows of the old palazzos, with persistence it may help reveal some of the deeper parts of yourself.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">One last thing: Donna likes the night…we’ll be exploring those streets late, and back to them early!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">During the week, <span style="color: #ff0000;">Daria Bonera</span> will talk about different topics, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>choosing images for magazines;</li>
<li>preparing yourself for an assignment;</li>
<li>how to find new frontiers in work;</li>
<li>personal projects: how to plan, create and finance;</li>
<li>better to have an agency, agent or to be a freelance?</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8230;and many more</p>
<h5>________________________</h5>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;">Donna Ferrato </span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Donna Ferrato is famous for achieving the seemingly impossible, establishing her career by visually capturing the horrors of family violence. Donna&#8217;s unique ability to get behind closed doors has allowed her to capture the most complex moments in human interactions and relationships. Her commitment to society&#8217;s darkest problems from domestic violence to child sexual assault has become the landmark essay in the field of documentary photography. Her photographs have changed laws and consistently challenged ignorant attitudes promoted by society about violence against women and children. Her iconic book, <strong><em>Living with the Enemy, </em></strong>has been reprinted three times and sold a record number of 40,000 copies worldwide.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Through exhibitions of her pictures and lectures worldwide Donna is recognized as one of the pre-eminent forces in the fight against the oppression of women. She has become one of the most recognized American photojournalists working worldwide on personality projects as diverse as Bruce Springsteen, Guns ‘n Roses, and human sexuality.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Donna has received numerous awards, including</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>W. Eugene Smith Grant</li>
<li>Robert F. Kennedy Award for Humanistic Photography</li>
<li>Kodak Crystal Eagle for Courage in Journalism</li>
<li>Missouri Honor Medal for Distinguished Service in Journalism from the School of Journalism at University of Missouri-Columbia</li>
<li>WebMD Grant</li>
<li>NYC proclamation announcing Donna Ferrato Appreciation Day (10/30/08) &#8220;for her service as an example of advocacy and activism and for being a citizen that the city is proud to call one of it&#8217;s own&#8221;.</li>
<li>In October 2009, the New York State Supreme Court Judges will honor Donna for her influential encouragement of gender fairness through her talent as both an artist and activist photographer.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span></em></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Living with the Enemy</span></em></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ferrato rode over 6,000 hours with police around the country to get some of the photographs in Living With the Enemy. In the introduction to <strong><em>Living With the Enemy</em></strong>, Ferrato writes, &#8220;Much of the book was born out of frustration &#8211; first, because I felt powerless in the face of the violence I had seen, and second, because for a long time no magazine would publish the pictures. It was only when I received the W. Eugene Smith Award in 1986 that magazine editors began to take the project seriously.&#8221; Ferrato felt the problem had been concealed from public view for too long and it was important to show as many aspects of the problem as she could. Some of the names in the book were changed, but all of the photographs and stories are real.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Venezia, 9 &#8211; 16 Marzo 2013</strong><br />
</span><br />
A marzo, Venezia viaggia a un ritmo particolare:  meno viaggiatori, pochi turisti,  caos. L’amore regna sovrano nelle calli di Venezia,  e marzo crea un palcoscenico ideale come mai durante l’anno. Il monocromatismo invernale lascia spazio alla luce di primavera.  Noi ci lasceremo trascinare per creare nuove immagini nei labirinti veneziani, lavati dall’acqua. Di notte, la città indossa la sua maschera più seducente. E’ la Venezia preferita da Donna, camminando e ascoltando i sussurri degli amanti, facendo ritratti di artisti e persone della strada.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sarà un workshop che va oltre gli schemi tradizionali. Sarà personale, non predicabile, emozionale e divertente.<br />
Gli aspetti intimi sono al centro del lavoro di Donna Ferrato, dalla violenza domestica all’amore tenero e folle, anche perverso. E’ anche il suo stile, nella vita e nell’insegnamento. Deve conoscerti, dentro e fuori: poi attraverso le sue storie ti guiderà a concentrati di più sul cuore, ti trascinerà nel suo territorio. E’ essenziale per poter camminare libero di catturare i momenti in mezzo agli sconosciuti, senza esitazione.<br />
L’acqua nei canali rifletterà non solo le ombre dei palazzi, ma anche la parte più nascosta di te stesso.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La classe è limitata a 14 studenti. è una classe per chi vuole approfondire la street-photography sotto la guida di una delle maggiori fotografe americane contemporanee.<br />
Insieme a Donna, Daria Bonera lavorerà con i partecipanti sul foto-editing, su come costruire una storia per immagini, come pubblicarle.<br />
Durante la settimana, Daria tratterà i seguenti argomenti :scegliere immagine per i giornali; come prepararsi per un incarico; come pianificare, creare e finanziare i progetti personali; lavorare con un’agenzia o da soli?   e tanti altri</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ci saranno lezioni individuali e collettive tutti i giorni, dove Donna e Daria approfondiranno tutte le tematiche relative alla vostra produzione fotografica.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Un’ultima cosa: Donna ama la notte…lavoreremo fino a tardi, per ricominciare presto il giorno dopo!</p>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"> </span></h5>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;"> </span></h5>
<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;">Donna Ferrato </span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Donna Ferrato è famosa per avere raggiunto, con le sue fotografie, quasi l’impossibile, costruendo la sua carriera fotografando gli orrori della violenza tra le mura di casa. ….La sua capacità di attraversare qualsiasi porta le ha permesso di  documentare i momenti più complessi della vita privata delle coppie. Il suo libro icona, Living with the Enemy, è stato ristampato tre volte e ha venduto più di 40.000 copie.<br />
Si considera una fotografa attivista, è una delle forze preminenti nella lotta contro i pregiudizi seulle donne.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #de200b;">Cortona, 22 Luglio 2011</span></h6>
<p>In questo incontro vedremo come prepararsi adeguatamente alla fotografia di viaggio, sfruttando al meglio tutto quanto ci offre la tecnologia digitale. Parleremo di quali attrezzature usare, quali computer sono i più adatti alla vita da globe-trotter, capiremo quali sono i software più adatti a gestire velocemente e soprattutto efficacemente il workflow fuori dalle mura domestiche, quali hard disk (non sono tutti uguali!) sono i più adatti, parleremo di tutta una serie di tools che non dobbiamo mai dimenticare a casa, nonché di tanti altri piccoli accorgimenti ed accessori che ci renderanno la lontananza dalla &#8220;civiltà tecnologica&#8221; molto più sicura&#8230;<br />
In fine, getteremo lo sguardo su tutte le tecnologie che ci permettono di pianificare con molta precisione il nostro viaggio ancor prima di essere sul luogo, minimizzando i rischi e le brutte sorprese del digital lifestyle&#8230;..</p>
<h6><span style="color: #eb2413;">Cortona, July 22, 2011</span></h6>
<p>In this meeting we&#8217;ll discuss how to get ready for &#8220;on location&#8221; photography, taking advantage of digital technology. We&#8217;ll see what gear to use, which one is the best computer for globetrotters, we&#8217;ll focus on different software analyzing the differences, so we will with hard disks (they are not the same!), we will talk about many tools we should never forget home, and we will touch many other tips and tricks that will make our travel much more safe (in terms of digital life)&#8230;<br />
Finally, we&#8217;ll see the technologies allowing to plan with great precision our travels way before being on site, minimizing digital lifestyle&#8217;s risks and surprises&#8230;</p>

<p><em>&#8220;</em><em> Borders have a bad reputation and most are generally badly perceived. Border goes with the idea of barriers, and conflicts: a critical spot of confrontation referring to a separation between men. In the living world, opposition between an inside and an outside is essential. We could say that every living being needs an “inside” and an “outside” that stimulates and intensify the “inside”. So, the border it’s something very ambiguous and ambivalent and one would always need to consider to show both sides…&#8221; Régis Debray (courtesy of Reflexions Masterclass)</em><em> </em></p>
<p>Non considero il mio lavoro come fotogiornalismo puro, ma piuttosto come una fotografia che parte dalla realtà per raccontare la mia esperienza di essa.</p>
<p>Quali sono i confini tra reportage e racconto intimo, tra documentare e trovare una propria visione? Come può uno strumento come la macchina fotografica, che di per sè impone una distanza, diventare invece uno strumento di relazione, di vicinanza?</p>
<p>Il mio percorso come fotografa è iniziato alcuni anni fa, non molti veramente,  e quasi per caso, da un’intuizione: che la fotografia potesse essere per me il modo per incanalare le mie inquietudini e la mia curiosità, il mio bisogno di vedere e conoscere persone e situazioni che non avrei conosciuto altrimenti, ma che per qualche ragione, sento vicine.</p>
<p>Sin dall’inizio la mia ricerca si è indirizzata sulla condizione delle donne, in particolare sulla violenza e il disagio, in Italia prima, con un lungo lavoro sui disturbi alimentari, e ora in zone di conflitto.  Non è stata una scelta, è successo. Mi è successo di arrabbiarmi per la condizione di fragilità in cui spesso vivono le donne e per il loro essere, loro malgrado, territorio delle più diverse battaglie.</p>
<p>Nel workshop parleremo di quale direzione prendere nel multiforme mondo della fotografia di oggi, di come trovare un tema appropriato per ciascuno, di cos&#8217;è un progetto a lungo termine, di come portarlo avanti e di come trovare fondi per proseguirlo, di quali canali poi siano i migliori per renderlo pubblico (giornali, gallerie, contenuti multimediali).</p>
<p>Parleremo dei vostri lavori e dei miei, di come lavorare anche su assignement cercando di non perdere il proprio stile e la propria visone, di quali sono i primi passi da muovere in questo meraviglioso e complicatissimo mondo. Troveremo un tema per la settimana, che potrà spaziare dal reportage alla ricerca personale, che decideremo assieme e verrà declinato da ciascuno a modo suo, discuteremo dei risultati e proveremo a creare un prodotto finale collettivo.</p>
<p><em> </em></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013  • July 21 &#8211; 27</span><br />
</span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The word photography means so many different things depending on time, the social situation, the public and specially who is behind the camera. I believe the only approach to your reality is to illuminate it through yourself so whatever you take pictures of it has to be as close as self-portraits. That kind of platform is never riskless, but absolutely stimulating. And I want you to have fun, having a good time not just looking for the Good picture but the believable picture showing yourself. To capture things and entering new rooms in your personality that seem to be valid the way you se them. During this workshop I have only the simple wish that you get close to yourself, naked and vulnerable, when meeting people, being surprised by the unpredictable.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We will work everyday with assignments showing contacts but in the beginning I&#8217;m looking forward to see your personal portfolios. And of course I&#8217;m showing pictures myself. One week of personal photography. Workshop in simple English. Prepare yourself; please be koko and thoroughly rested.<br />

<address style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Anders Petersen</strong><span style="font-style: normal;"> has been involved in Swedish photography since the late 60&#8217;s. He is one of its central figures, and no one else has made a stronger impact on a younger generation. Yet, he hardly gives the impression of being a father figure. If anything, he is the eternal boy, traveling through an alien wonderland with its secret love encounters and bewildering adult conflicts. His pictures of the world out there somehow seem to be taken in a state of permanent amazement. &#8220;Is this what it looks like&#8221;, he seems to utter as he points his camera at lovers in the night and at people in the street — or at inmates in Swedish prisons and patrons in a Hamburg bar.</span></address>
<address style="text-align: justify;">His pictures are intimate, and yet they disclose no all too unpleasant details concerning the people involved. The photographs are taken by the subjects&#8217; consent and with a probing, somewhat detached eye. In the world of Anders Petersen, all things remain incomprehensible and strange — while still indecently enticing.</address>
<address style="text-align: justify;">One of the secrets in Anders Petersen&#8217;s photography is his indication of a possible route of escape, a kind of alternative movement through the city, which could lead to a different story. A woman&#8217;s gaze into the camera turns into an unsettling invitation, often of the forbidden kind.&#8221; (Peder Alton, Swedish art critic)</address>

<h6><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;"> BIOGRAPHY</span></strong></h6>
<div style="text-align: justify;">Anders Petersen was born 1944 in Stockholm, Sweden. 14 years old his family moved to Karlstad in Värmland, where he met the artists  Karin Bodland and Lars Sjögren. In 1961 he stayed for some time in Hamburg in order to learn German and trying to write and paint. He didn&#8217;t take any pictures.Five years later he met Christer Strömholm and became a student at his School of Photography in Stockholm. Strömholm was not just his teacher but also a close friend. Their friendship influenced him for life. In 1967 he starts photographing a bar called Café Lehmitz in Hamburg, close to Zeughausmarkt. He was photographing there for a period of almost three years and in 1970 he had his first soloexhibition over the bar in Café Lehmitz with 350 photographs nailed to the wall.</div>
<div id="apDiv8" style="text-align: justify;">
<p>In 1973 he published his first book &#8220;Gröna Lund&#8221;, about people in an amusementpark in Stockholm. In 1974 he graduated from the Swedish Filmschool,Dramatiska Institutet, in Stockholm. In 1978 he published &#8220;Café Lehmitz &#8221; in Germany. In 1984 the first book in a trilogy about locked instituations was published. The three books were about people in a prison, a nursing house, and a mental hospital. After photographing the mental hospital for three years he oriented himself towards a more free approach in a kind of diarylike photography.</p>
<p>During 2003 and 2004 Anders Petersen was appointed Professor of Photography in the School of Photography and Film at the University of Göteborg, Sweden. He regularly has workshops and exhibitions throughout Europe, Asia and in the USA. He has received numerous grants and rewards since the seventies.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 21 &#8211; 27 Luglio</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La parola fotografia può assumere diversi significati a seconda del tempo, della situazione sociale, dal pubblico e specialmente da chi è dietro la macchina fotografica.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Credo che l’unico approccio alla propria realtà sia di illuminarla attraverso se stessi in modo che, qualunque sia il soggetto delle proprie foto, deve avvicinarsi il più possibile ad un autoritratto. Questo approccio non è sempre indolore e senza rischi, ma è totalmente stimolante. E voglio che vi divertiate e siate a vostro agio, ricercando non solo la Foto Perfetta, ma quella che sia onesta e riveli voi stessi. Voglio che catturiate le cose ed entriate in nuove stanze della vostra personalità che mostrino come voi vedete queste cose.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Durante questo workshop ho il semplice desiderio che vi avviciniate a voi stessi &#8211; nudi e vulnerabili &#8211; quando incontrate gli altri, e che vi lasciate sorprendere dall’inaspettato. Lavoreremo ogni giorno su dei progetti, ma vorrei vedere subito i vostri portfolio, e naturalmente vi mostrerò il mio lavoro. Sarà una settimana di fotografia personale. Preparatevi e rilassatevi.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>“Anders Petersen è una figura centrale nel mondo della fotografia svedese dalla fine degli anni 60. Nessun altro ha avuto un impatto così forte sulla generazione successiva.. Tuttavia, non dà l’impressione paterna. Sembra l’eterno ragazzo, che viaggia in paese delle meraviglie alieno con i suoi incontri amorosi segreti e struggenti conflitti da adulto. Le sue fotografie del mondo sembrano fatte in uno stato di continuo stupore. “E’ quello che sembra” pare mormorare mentre punta la macchina fotografica agli amanti notturni e alla gente della strada – o ai detenuti di una prigione svedese e ai frequentatori di un bar di Amburgo.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Le sue foto sono intime, tuttavia non mostrando dettagli spiacevoli. Delle persone coinvolte. Le foto sono fatte con il permesso del soggetto e con un occhio distaccato. Nel mondo di Anders Petersen, tutto rimane incomprensibile e strano, e tuttavia indecentemente seducente. Uno dei segreti della sua fotografia è che mostra una possibile via di fuga, un movimento alternativo attraverso la città, che può portare ad una storia differente. Lo sguardo di una donna all’obbiettivo diventa un incerto invito, spesso del tipo proibito…”</em> (Peter Alton, crico svedese)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il primo libro di Anders Petersen, Café Lehimitz, che rappresenta la vita di un Bar di Amburgo, fu pubblicato in Germania nel 1978. Da allora ha pubblicato altri 22 libri.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Tuscany 2012 •  July 24 &#8211; 28<br />
</span></span></h6>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">The workshop will address the issues of contemporary documentary photographic practice and approaches, taking a deeper look at the long-term project in photography. The aim is to build up an understanding of different forms of narratives and different ways of structuring work according to the final mode of presentation, be it a book, an exhibition, multimedia or magazine feature.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">We will discuss how ideas and concepts are crucial to the development of the documentary project, how to identify themes, motifs and issues that address and question the societies we live in, on both the local and global level.<br />
Participants will bring completed and in progress projects so we can begin to look and deconstruct the photography and the participants working methodology. This will involve a detailed look at the editing process. To illustrate this I will show my own working method and project evolution as well as other peoples projects.<br />
Besides discussing the projects the participants have already produced or are working on, everyone will identify and produce a short narrative through sequence, combination, or juxtaposition during the workshop. . The work performed at the workshop will act as a starting place for participants to identify and develop a critical perspective on creating original long term projects that can be developed beyond the workshop.</span></p>

<h6 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • July 21 &#8211; 27</span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Memorable images of the landscape are created from a delightful and precious dance between what you see, how you think, and what you feel.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;A Natural Eye&#8221; strives to develop your eye first, and then bring the technical skills of photography to it. The workshop is designed to push your seeing from what’s right in front of our eyes into the world of abstractions, reflections, layers, movement, and then deeper into the realm of concepts and imagination.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">During the week, outdoor experiences in local natural areas take you through important steps to enriching your photographs of the natural world as you find yourself focused less on objects and things, and more on the magic of moments and the essence of places. You stop chasing the light and learn to enjoy the fine art of wandering. You visit the same place in different light and different weather, getting to know it, and hence seeing it with new eyes. You learn that if you hear more and touch more, you will photograph with more sensitivity. You are rewarded by the skills of patience, solitude and emptying. This workshop weaves together eye-opening outdoor experiences, technical lessons, image reviews, and Eddie’s one-on-one meetings with each participant.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This workshop is open to all photographers with a working knowledge of their camera. If you wish to participate in image reviews, you will need to bring a laptop and a working knowledge of the digital workflow. This would include the ability to download your images to your laptop, make selections, and prepare them for projection from the class laptop.</p>

His eye has developed during a lifetime of exploring the earth’s wild places. Former positions in educational workshop design, wilderness program development, and custom fine photographic printing have further honed his expertise. In 1998, Eddie was the first recipient of the Excellence in Photographic Teaching Award presented by the Santa Fe Center for Photography. Today he divides his time between making fine-art prints, teaching, speaking on creativity and the photographic life, and furthering photographic publishing projects. His first book, One Thousand Moons, was published in the summer of 2004, and the DVD, A Natural Eye Workshop was released in December 2009. An impassioned teacher, Eddie brings experiences in both nature and photography to his workshops.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Le indimenticabili immagini del paesaggio sono create dalla danza, <span style="text-align: justify;">incantevole e preziosa,</span> di ciò che vedi, ciò che pensi e ciò che senti.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;A Natural Eye&#8221; intende sviluppare prima l’occhi0 del fotografo per poi consegnargli le capacità tecniche della fotografia stessa. Il workshop è ideato per modificare il proprio modo di vedere: da ciò che si presenta esattamente davanti ai nostri occhi al mondo astratto, delle riflessioni, delle stratificazioni e poi, sempre più profondamente, verso l’universo dei concetti e dell’immaginazione.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Durante la settimana, le uscite all’aperto, immerse nella natura, ti faranno vivere diversamente i passaggi per arricchire le tue fotografie naturalistiche. Sarai meno concentrato sugli oggetti e sulle cose, ma più sulla magia dei momenti, e sull’essenza dei posti. Smetterai di rincorrere la luce per imparare invece il piacere e l’arte sottile del vagare. Vedrai lo stesso posto sotto una luce e un’atmosfera diversa, conoscendolo meglio e quindi osservandolo con occhi nuovi.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Se ascolti e tocchi di più, fotograferai con maggior sensibilità. Ciò ti ricompenserà della pazienza, della solitudine e dalla sensazione di vuoto che hai provato.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Questo workshop tesse insieme le rivelanti esperienze all’aperto, le lezioni tecniche, la rilettura delle immagini e gli incontri one-to-one con Eddie. È aperto a tutti coloro che conoscano la propria macchina fotografica. Se si desidera partecipare alla rilettura delle immagini è necessario portare con sé il proprio computer e una conoscenza di base del workflow digitale: scaricare le immagini sul proprio computer, selezionarle e preparare una presentazione per la classe.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #d01505;">Siena, Italy  June 28/July 4<br />
</span></h6>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Palio di Siena (The Palio of Siena)</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">This workshop will take place during the famous “Palio” of Siena in July. It’s not easy to describe what the Palio of Siena is, and a workshop on this subject is equally complicated…! But let’s try.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">The Palio of Siena is the most ancient horse race (and here is the first error because it is much more than just a race) in the world… it began in 1644…</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Of all the popular manifestations that have remained in the world, the Palio of Siena is one of the truest, most passionately-lived, and most influential on social life: it is not folkloristic, and it is not for tourists. It is quite the opposite…</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">It is the fruit of life for the <em>contrada </em>(a “clan”, “community”, or “neighborhood” within Siena) that takes place all year long and has been going on for more than 400 years.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">There are 10 horses with riders (and the rule is that it is the horse that wins the race, with or without its rider) that represent different <em>contrade</em>. They must complete three laps around the perimeter of the spectacular Piazza del Campo and the first to finish wins the race. Three minutes. This is the short version of the story.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">The long version is infinite. On Google there are 2,570,000 results….</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">We need to begin by speaking about the 17 different <em>contrade </em>that divide the territory of the city of Siena. Then, there is the passion of the people of Siena for the Palio, which is their life. Finally, there are the “fantini” (riders), <em>berberi, capitani, cavalli scossi, mossa, berci, canape; Casato, cencio….</em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">The only thing that everyone agrees on is that, in order to enjoy the energy of the Palio to its maximum degree, you must experience it for the entire four days that it goes on, following a <em>contrada</em>, if possible, and having a “contradaiolo” (a member of the contrada) as your guide. You should stay with the <em>contrada</em> until the day of the Palio and celebrate the victory with them, or suffer the defeat, or even worse, suffer the victory of the <em>contrada</em>’s adversary…!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">If you don’t come from Siena, or you don’t have friends that are loyal to a particular <em>contrada</em>, choose one to your liking, because you like the name: there are many to choose from and any of them will be fine.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;"><strong>Nicchio (Seashell), Valdimontone (Ram), Leocorno (Unicorn), Civetta (Owl), Torre (Tower), Onda (Wave), Chiocciola (Snail), Tartuca (Turtle), Aquila (Eagle), Pantera (Pantheress), Selva (Forrest), Drago (Dragon), Bruco (Caterpillar), Giraffa (Giraffe), Oca (Goose), Lupa (She-wolf), Istrice (Porcupine). </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">In the days preceding the Palio, there are two trials a day, one in the morning and one in the evening. You will have the whole day available to “live the life of the contrada”, to get to know the people around you, and in the evening, to eat dinner in the streets together with the true members of the <em>contrada </em>in the most beautiful city in the world. Maybe one day you can also take advantage of visiting the surroundings of Siena: but I doubt that you will be able to distract yourselves from the “fever” of the Palio….</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Our point of view will be a privileged one from the inside. We want to make you understand the mechanisms of the Palio, have you participate in the life of the <em>contrada,</em> and immerse ourselves in this atmosphere, the only one like it in the world. We will not be tourist spectators, but instead we will engross ourselves in the spirit of this experience that must not be missed. Every day, we will meet to critique the photographic work but also to discuss the correct strategies for making the most of these days.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">__________________________________________________________</span></p>
<h6><span style="color: #d01505;">Siena, Italy 28 • Giugno/4 Luglio<br />
</span></h6>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Questo workshop si svolgerà durante il Palio di Siena di Luglio. Non è facile spiegare cosa sia il Palio di Siena, quindi un workshop su questo soggetto è ugualmente complicato…! ma ci proviamo.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Il Palio di Siena è la corsa di cavalli (e qui primo errore, perché è molto di più di una corsa) più antica del mondo…cominciata nel 1644…</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">E’ una delle manifestazioni popolari più vere, sentite e influenti sulla vita sociale rimaste al mondo: non è folcloristico, non è per turisti. anzi….</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">E’ il frutto della vita di contrada che si svolge tutto l’anno a Siena, da più di 400 anni.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Ci sono 10 cavalli con fantini (l’ordine è questo, è il cavallo che vince la corsa, con o senza fantino), che rappresentano altrettante contrade. Fanno tre giri intorno alla spettacolare Piazza del Campo e il primo vince. 3 minuti.  Questa è la storia breve.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Quella lunga, è infinita. Su Google in Italiano ci sono 313.00 risultati: in inglese, 2.570.000….</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Bisogna cominciare a parlare delle 17 contrade, che si dividono il territorio della città. Della passione dei senesi per il Palio, la loro vita. Dei fantini, berberi, capitani, cavalli scossi, mossa, berci, canape; Casato, cencio….</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">L’unica cosa su cui tutti concordano, è che per godere al massimo l’energia del Palio, bisogna viverlo per tutta la sua durata di 4 giorni, e possibilmente seguendo una contrada e avendo come guida una contradaiolo, fino al giorno del Palio, stare con loro per celebrare la vittoria o soffrire della sconfitta, o, peggio ancora, della vittoria della contrada avversaria…!Se non siete senesi o non avete amici legati ad una particolare contrada, sceglietene una per simpatia, perché vi piace il nome, non c’è che l’imbarazzo della scelta.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Nicchio, Valdimontone, Leocorno, Civetta, Torre, Onda, Chiocciola, Tartuca, Aquila, Pantera, Selva, Drago, Bruco, Giraffa, Oca, Lupa, Istrice.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Nei giorni precedenti il Palio, si corrono due prove il  giorno, alla mattina e alla sera. Avrete a disposizione tutto il giorno per fare “vita di contrada”, conoscere le persone che vi gravitano intorno, e alla sera, cenare lungo le strade della più bella città al mondo, insieme ai veri contradaioli…magari un giorno potete anche approfittarne e visitare i dintorni di Siena: ma dubito che riuscirete a distrarti dalla “febbre “ del Palio….</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Il nostro sarò un punto di vista privilegiato dall’interno. Vogliamo farvi capire i meccanismi del Palio, rendervi partecipi alla vita di contrada, immergerci in questa atmosfera unica al mondo. Non saremo turisti  spettatori, ma ci faremo coinvolgere nello spirito di questa imperdibile esperienza.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Tutti giorni ci troveremo per  fare critica sul lavoro fotografico, ma anche su le corrette strategie per sfruttare al massimo queste giornate.</span></p>

For years, TPW has planned workshops in Sicily during the Easter Processions. We usually look at the Easter Processions not as a single event, but as part of the life and spirit of Sicily. We will follow the final days of the processions and, filled with this strong visual and emotional experience, will plunge ourselves into Sicily</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Menlo Regular&quot;;">’</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;">s everyday life and culture. In every Sicilian town during the days leading up to Easter, processions are carried out bringing to life the Passion of Christ. The Christian component goes side by side with the pagan element, resulting in the creation of unique rituals that are completely different from all the others taking place in the rest of Italy. Our workshop will start on Thursday, in order to be ready to shoot on Holy Friday. We will start following the processions in the small villages on the Eastern part of the island where there are very few inhabitants and there is a greater intimacy and a stronger sense of the religious tradition than in the larger, more well-known processions. We will move from village to village in order to reach the places where this ritual is celebrated in a humble yet potent way. The last days will be concentrated in Scicli, where Easter celebrations are stronger that anywhere else.<br />
Everyday there will be work groups and moments of individual critique.<br />
We will spend all day on Tuesday editing the work shot during the week for the final presentation that evening.<br />
Our centre will be in Scicli.<br />
Scicli and the area around it are part of the UNESCO World Heritage. Located between the sea and cities like Noto and Modica, it is also the perfect centre for exploring the Sicilian Baroque.</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1e2c;">Sicily 2012,  April 5-9</span></h6>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;">I rituali e la tradizione sono una componente molto forte della cultura siciliana..</span></p>
<p>Da anni durante i workshop sulle Processioni Pasquali, affrontiamo le processioni non come un’entità a se stante, ma come parte della vita e dello spirito della Sicilia. Seguiremo alcune processioni per gli ultimi giorni ma soprattutto entreremo nella vita di tutti i giorni e nel cuore della cultura siciliana. Il workshop inizierà il giovedì prima di Pasqua, in modo da poter essere attivi già da Venerdì Santo. Approfitteremo di questi momenti per seguire le piccole processioni nella parte orientale dell’isola, in paesi di non molti abitanti, dove persiste un’intimità e un senso della religione più forte che nelle processioni maggiori. Ci sposteremo di paese in paese, per raggiungere i luoghi dove, in maniera umile ma fortemente sentita, si celebra questo rituale, per arrivare fino al culmine del giorno di Pasqua. Gli ultimi giorni saranno concentrati sulla Pasqua a Scicli, dove la processione del ”Gioia”, il Cristo risorto, è uno degli eventi più suggestivi del ciclo pasquale.<br />
Contemporaneamente, avremo modo di calarci nel modo di vivere siciliano di tutti giorni.<br />
Ogni giorno ci saranno gruppi di lavoro e momenti di critica individuale.<br />
Il giorno finale sarà dedicato all’editing del materiale scattato, per la proiezione finale della sera.<br />
Scicli è uno dei paesi più affascinanti della Sicilia sud-est. Patrimonio dell’UNESCO, si trova in una posizione centrale, tra il mare, Noto, Modica e i maggiori centri del barocco siciliano.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • July 28 &#8211; Aug 03</span><br />

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #9f9f9f;"><em><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> With the class, I will attempt to open up the students mind in the many varied photographic styles from past and present. Will explore and  discover some kind of distinct style in their own  work.   With way&#8217;s to expand on that vision to help separate them in the industry.</span></em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em> </em><br />
How to create a personal style is one of the most talked issues in contemporary photography in general.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Hundreds of young talented photographers manage to have their work published every year, but still only a small number continues to work on a regular basis…</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">It is not a question of luck, but a question of style.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">During this week with Christopher Morris, we try to define this style, how it comes from a very personal perception of what is in front of us, and how to develop it and make it become our signature.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-align: justify;">____________________________</span></span></p>
<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">BIOGRAPHY</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><a href="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Christopher_Morris_2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3154" alt="Christopher Morris" src="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Christopher_Morris_2-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>Christopher Morris (born California 1958) is an American photojournalist, best known for his war photographs.<br />
Most of Morris&#8217; work has concentrated on war. Some of the wars he photographed were the US invasion of Iraq, the drug war in Colombia, the Persian Gulf war, the wars in Afghanistan, Somalia, Yugoslavia, and Chechnya − more than 18 foreign conflicts. He documented the presidency of George W. Bush for Time, and is a founding member of the VII Photo Agency.<br />
In recent years, Morris has worked on his monograph, My America which was published in 2006. My America was produced while on assignment for TIME magazine covering U.S. President George W. Bush. Morris describes My America as his personal journey into a Republican America. Through portraits and landscapes, Morris hopes that the viewer &#8220;sees what he saw and feels what he felt &#8211; a nation that has wrapped its eyes so tightly in red, white, and blue that it has gone blind.&#8221;<br />
Morris has received a multitude of awards for his work, including the Robert Capa Gold Medal award, The Olivier Rebbot award and the Feature Photography award from the Overseas Press Club; the Magazine Photographer of the Year award from the University of Missouri School of Journalism; Two Infinity Photojournalist awards from the International Center of Photography, New York; the Visa d&#8217;Or award; and numerous World Press Photo Awards.</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 28 <span style="color: #ff0000; font-size: 10px;"> •</span>Luglio &#8211; 3 Agosto</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Con il mio gruppo, cerco di far aprire la mente degli studenti a più stile fotografici, dal passato al presente.  Esploreranno e scopriranno fino a trovare lo stile del proprio lavoro. Cercando di trovare modi ad ampliare la loro visione, a renderli distinti dagli altri.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Quello dello “stile personale” è uno degli argomenti più dibattuti nel mondo della fotografia contemporanea.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Centinaia di fotografi giovani di talento riescono ad essere pubblicati ogni anno, però solo una piccola percentuale di questi lavora regolarmente.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Non è una “questione di fortuna”, ma  una “questione di stile”.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Durante questa settimana con Christopher Morris, cercheremo di definire questo stile, da come nasce dalla nostra percezione di quello ci sta dintorno e come si sviluppa in uno stile, per  creare la nostra firma.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">La maggior parte del suo lavoro è concentrato sui conflitti. Fra le guerre ed i conflitti che ha fotografato: l’invasione d’Iraq degli USA, la guerra contro la droga in Colombia, la guerra del Golfo Persiano, guerra in Afghanistan, Somalia, Jugoslavia e Cecenia- più di 18 conflitti all’estero.  Ha documentato la presidenza di George W. Bush per Time ed è tra i soci fondatori dell’agenzia  VII Photo</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Negli ultimi anni Morris ha lavorato  sulla sua monografia, My America pubblicato nel 2006.My America ‘e stato realizzato mentre Morris lavorava per TIME, seguendo George W. Bush. Morris descrive My America come un viaggio personale dentro l’America repubblicana. Attraverso ritratti e paesaggi, Morris spera che lo spettatore “vede e sente quello che ho visto e che si è sentito lui stesso- un paese che ha gli occhi così coperti in rosso, bianco e blue che è diventato ceco.”  Morris ha ricevuto numerosi premi per il suo lavoro, incluso il Robert Capa Gold Medal award, The Olivier Rebbot award e il Feature Photography award dall’Overseas Press Club;  Magazine Photographer of the Year award dall’University of Missouri School of Journalism; Two Infinity Photojournalist awards dall’International Center of Photography, New York; il Visa d’Or ward; e numerosi World Press Photo Awards.</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #a91003;">Bangkok March 6 &#8211; 12, 2011</span></h6>
<p>Luca Invernizzi Tettoni was born in Northern Italy and has spent nearly half his life in Asia. During the 80&#8217;s,his long association with Thailand resulted in the publication of a number of ground -breaking books including <strong>The Arts of Thailand</strong>, and the best selling <strong>Thai Style</strong>.  His ability to discover and record ancient traditions  and immutable  aspects of Asia has been instrumental in creating awareness of  traditional styles and values of these fast changing societies.</p>
<p>Luca studied archeology before turning to photography, and Asian art has always been his passion         .<br />
He has worked with some of the most important scholars in this field,  such as C. Sivaramamurti and Jean Boisselier, Thierry Zephir and other  members of the Ecole Française d’Extrême Orient, who chose to use him  for a complete survey of Cham art in Vietnam and for the official  catalogue of the Khmer Museum in Phnom Penh. His exclusive library of  Asian Art includes all major archeological sites of India, Sri Lanka, Burma, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, as well as a wide collection of museum pieces and murals  and it is available for rental.</p>
<p>More recently, his work has been featured in a number of  coffee-table books on contemporary architecture, Spas and resorts, such  as<strong> Tropical Asian Style, The Tropical Garden, Bali Houses, The Ultimate Spa</strong>,<br />
and<strong> Ultimate Tropical</strong>, published by Thames &amp; Hudson  in 2008, which he also authored.  Luca&#8217;s sensitive approach to  recording Asian style opened the eyes of locals and foreigners alike,  and his images have influenced numerous architects and interior designers around the world, who have applied<br />
many of the ideas captured through Luca&#8217;s lens in hotels, resorts and private homes.</p>
<p>In addition to his involvement with editorial projects,  Luca Invernizzi Tettoni works as a commercial photographer. Based in  Singapore, Luca accepts commissions for location assignments in the  Asian region for architects and interior decorators, hotels, resorts and spas.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: silver;" lang="EN-GB">This workshop will be about photographing a precise area, interpreting, with our photographs, the essence of a place and its people.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: silver;" lang="EN-GB">We will move from within the centre of Bangkok, one of the most vibrant metropolis in Asia. We will get to know the people who live there, listening to their talks and photographing their daily life.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: silver;" lang="EN-GB">Every day we will meet for group critique as well as one-to-one meetings&#8230;and then…on the road again, at different times of the day, to capture the light and the spirit of this place. At the end of the week, students will have a portfolio with fresh images of the Bangkok street life.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: silver;" lang="EN-GB">“Photography is not about buying the right lens, nor is it about knowing the right people. It is far more challenging than that. It is about looking at oneself in the mirror sometimes and looking out of the window some other time. Simplicity is always the most difficult thing to achieve. People tend to make things complicated in a way that wastes energy. Energy, flowing naturally, makes for the best art and daily life”</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: silver;" lang="EN-GB">This class is for advanced photographers who want to learn on an extended essay or for a magazine or a personal book project.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: silver;" lang="EN-GB">David Alan Harvey&#8217;s work deals with the magic of everyday life. A member of Magnum, he has travelled the world shooting more than 30 essays for National Geographic. His ongoing work in the Spanish-speaking world recently brought him to Cuba. The result of these six months photographing this island spread out over a three year period lead to the publishing of several magazine articles as well as &#8220;Cuba&#8221;, a book that is a moving and intimate portrait of Cuba and its people. A show on Cuba was shown at Visa pour l&#8217;Image Festival in Perpignan, as well as in Miami, Havana and New York, and is currently touring the U.S. and Europe. Harvey is currently at work on two new stories for the National Geographic Magazine.</span></p>

<h5><span style="color: #870f0f;"> </span><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Bangkok, 2011 •  6/12 Marzo<br />
</span></span></h5>
<p><span style="color: silver;">Questo Workshop vi porterà a fotografare in una zona precisa , interpretando,  con le vostre foto, l&#8217;essenza  di un posto e dei suoi abitanti.Ci sposteremo nel centro di Bangkok, cercando di conoscere le persone che vi abitano e lavorano, ascoltando le loro storie e fotografando la loro vita quotidiana. Ogni giorno ci incontreremo per la critica sia come gruppo che individualmente.  e poi.. di nuovo on the road, a diverse ore del giorno, per catturare la luce e l&#8217;atmosfera dei posti. Alla fine della settimana, gli studenti avranno a disposizione un portfolio con immagini nuove della vita<span> </span>quotidiana di Bangkok.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: silver;">“Fotografare non è comprare l&#8217; obbiettivo giusto, neppure conoscere le persone giuste. E&#8217; una sfida molto più importante. A volte si tratta di guardarsi allo specchio, altre volte d i guardare fuori dalla finestra. La semplicità è sempre la  cosa più difficile da raggiungere. Spesso tendiamo  a rendere le cose complicate e sprechiamo energia. Ma l&#8217;energia, che  scorre naturalmente, trasforma al meglio l&#8217;arte e la vita di tutti i giorni.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="color: silver;">Questo workshop è per fotografi di livello avanzato, che vogliono imparare a lavorare su un servizio fotografico per una rivista o per un progetto  personale, mostra, libro.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: silver;">Il lavoro di David Alan Harvey ha a che fare con la magia della vita di tutti i giorni. Membro della Magnum, ha viaggiato in tutto il mondo creando più di trenta composizioni fotografiche per il National Geographic. Il suo più recente lavoro incentrato sul mondo della lingua spagnola è a Cuba. I risultati di sei mesi di lavoro su quest’isola, sono le svariate pubblicazioni di articoli su riviste internazionali, e la pubblicazione di Cuba, un libro che è un commovente ed intimo ritratto di Cuba e della sua gente. Una mostra su Cuba è stata esposta al Visa pour L’image Festival di Perpignan, come anche a Miami, in Havana e New York; la stessa mostra sta inoltre viaggiando tra USA ed Europa. Harvey sta <span> </span>al momento lavorando a due nuovi progetti per il National Geographic Magazine.</span></p>

</span></h6>
<p>TRANSYLVANIA: the mind immediately thinks of gothic atmospheres, dark and foggy landscapes, mystery and, above all, Dracula &amp; Co!!!! The truth however is far from this and you can visit unusual and charming places unspoilt by mass tourism.</p>
<p>We went to Transylvania for the first time in 2009, and what we found was totally unexpected. First of all, the climate was wonderful, long and warm spring days, with amazing light. And then the local people, ready to open the doors of their houses, despite the language gap. We walked in, in tiptoe, and saw a way of life that is quickly disappearing in the rest of Europe. Maybe we were the last ones to see the horse charts still travelling on main roads, to taste honey and bread from small farmers, disappearing now due to the new specification imposed by EEC rules.</p>
<p>This notwithstanding, we immersed ourselves in the charming and melancholic atmosphere of these small villages, grown around the fortified church and the local bar. Who knows if – next time we go there &#8211; we will find ourselves again drinking wine at 7 am, together with gipsies at a horse fair, or singing along with violin players in a country bar, where Antonin, Diego and I ended up to on a deserted Sunday morning.</p>
<p>We will explore villages founded by the Saxons in the XIIth century. These villages, built to protect the region from invasions from the east, grew enormously till the end of World War II, when people started to abandon them. Today relatively few people remain, as witnesses of long gone past, preserving traditions that have already disappeared in most regions of Eastern Europe.<br />
The aim of this workshop is to document the reality and its contrasts. We have been talking with Antonin Kratochvil for a long time about this workshop: Antonin knows the area very well and considers it as one of the most interesting parts of Europe to photograph. Our Centre will be Sighisoara, a city that is part of the UNESCO Heritage Found and one of the best-preserved medieval cities in Europe. We will be photographing daily life in the nearby villages with the help of local guides who have excellent local access.</p>

<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>BIOGRAPHY</strong></span></p>
<p>Antonin Kratochvil is one of the founders of VII photo agency.</p>
<p>As photojournalists go, Antonin Kratochvil has sunk his teeth into his fair share of upheaval and human catastrophes whilst going about his documentation of the time in which he lives.</p>
<p>As people go, Kratochvil&#8217;s own refugee life has been much in the way the same as what he has rendered on film. Kratochvil&#8217;s unique style of photography is the product of personal experience, intimate conditioning and not privileged voyeurism.</p>
<p>Over the years his fluid and unconventional work has been sought by numerous publications stretching across widely differing interests. From shooting Mongolia&#8217;s street children for the magazine published by the Museum of Natural History to a portrait session with David Bowie for Detour, from covering the war in Iraq for Fortune Magazine to shooting Deborah Harry for a national advertising campaign for the American Civil Liberties Union, Kratochvil&#8217;s ability to see through and into his subjects and show immutable truth has made his pictures not facsimiles but uncensored visions.</p>
<p>And yet, what set his kind apart from the many is his consistency and struggle to carry on.</p>
<p>and nature and the environment.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Transylvania (Romania)  • 1-8  Giugno, 2013</span></h6>
<p>Transilvania: subito la mente corre ad atmosfere gotiche, paesaggi nebbiosi, misteri e soprattutto Dracula &amp; Co. !!!!</p>
<p>Al di là di questo, che ha alimentato miti e un turismo di bassa lega, esistono in queste parti della Romania realtà ben più importanti e affascinanti.</p>
<p>Nel 2009, quando abbiamo lanciato per la prima volta questo workshop, non sapevamo bene cosa aspettarci. Avevamo fatto un sopraluogo durante l’inverno, ma quello che si è presentato ai nostri occhi è stato completamente diverso. Innanzitutto, un clima primaverile, con luci incredibili. E poi il contatto con la gente del luogo, che, nonostante le difficoltà linguistiche, è stata pronta ad aprirci le porte. Siamo letteralmente entrati nelle case delle persone, in punta di piedi, e vista una parte di Europa che sta scomparendo in fretta. Forse siamo stati gli ultimi a vedere i carretti trainati dai cavalli sulle strade principali, i piccoli produttori di formaggi e miele stanno scomparendo, premuti dai nuovi standard imposti dall’appartenenza alla EEC.</p>
<p>Ma nonostante questo, c’è un fascino melanconico  in questi piccoli villaggi, raccolti intorno alla chiesa principale e al bar del villaggio. Chissà se incontreremo ancora, per caso, un mercato di cavalli all’alba o i violinisti in una locanda in mezzo al nulla, il piccolo bar aperto di domenica…</p>
<p>Lontani dagli stereotipi, esploreremo i villaggi che furono fondati dai Sassoni nel XII secolo per porre freno alle invasioni dei Turchi e Tartari, e che sono stati molto popolati fino alla seconda guerra mondiale. Da allora è iniziato l’esodo e si sono lentamente svuotati: oggi sono rimasti pochi abitanti, che preservano tradizioni ormai scomparse in altre regioni europee.<br />
Questo workshop ha lo scopo di documentare questa realtà e i suoi contrasti.<br />
Abbiamo parlato per anni con Antonin Kratochvil dell’idea di condurre un workshop in Transilvania, regione che lui conosce benissimo e che considera uno dei pochi posti incontaminati dell’Est europeo.<br />
Il centro del workshop è Sighisoara, che fa parte del patrimonio dell’UNESCO,   la cittadella medioevale meglio preservata d’Europa, ancora abitata.<br />
Da qui ci muoveremo per fotografare la vita quotidiana dei villaggi circostanti, dove esiste un forte attaccamento alle tradizioni e dove si vive ancora fuori dal tempo, sospesi tra il ricordo di un’epoca ormai trascorsa, e il nuovo che preme. Ci serviremo di guide locali per entrare in contatto con la realtà del luogo.<br />
Alloggeremo nel centro di Sighisoara, dove ci incontreremo anche per le lezioni e la critica collettiva, e partiremo alla ricerca dei nostri soggetti.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Informazioni Pratiche:</span><br />

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">It  will not be a workshop on traditional portrait. Antonin will show how,  even in the difficult art of portraiture, is possible to show one  personal and unique style and interpretation. His photographs of people &#8211;  celebrities or common people &#8211; have made him world famous.<br />
You will have to be ready to throw away most of your traditional ideas.  Antonin&#8217;s images go beyond document, they speak of emotions and states  of mind, both of the photographer and the person photographed.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Kratochvil  won numerous awards, grants and honorable mentions dating back to 1975.  The latest of these are the first place prizes at the 2002 World Press  Photo Awards in the categories of general news and nature and the  environment. The next is the 2004 grant from Aperture publishing. In  addition, Kratochvil&#8217;s fifth book Vanishing has been published in 2005  and marked another significant milestone for the craft to which he  belongs. In 2001 he founded with other photojournalists the agency VII.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Non  sarà un corso di ritratto inteso in senso tradizionale. Kratochvil  mostrerà come, anche nel ritratto, si possa riuscire ad avere uno stile  unico e personale. Il suo approccio alla fotografia di persone &#8211; famose e  non &#8211; fa sì che il suo lavoro sia richiesto dalle più importanti  testate internazionali.<br />
Bisognerà essere pronti a stravolgere buona parte dei concetti tradizionali.<br />
Le immagini di Kratochvil si spingono oltre il documentario, ci parlano  di emozioni e stati d&#8217;animo, sia del fotografo che del soggetto  fotografato.<br />

<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;"><em>With the class, I will attempt to open up the students mind in the many varied photographic styles from past and present.

<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;"><br />
How to create a personal style is one of the most talked issues in contemporary photography in general.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Hundreds of young talented photographers manage to have their work published every year, but still only a small number continues to work on a regular basis…</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">It is not a question of luck, but a question of style.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">During this week with Christopher Morris, we try to define this style, how it comes from a very personal perception of what is in front of us, and how to develop it and make it become our signature.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">The city of Bangkok, with its exuberant street life, will be the ideal place to work on personal projects while developing your vision and building up your personal style.</span></p>
<p>BIOGRAPHY</p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Christopher Morris (born California 1958) is an American photojournalist, best known for his war photographs.<br />
Most of Morris&#8217; work has concentrated on war. Some of the wars he photographed were the US invasion of Iraq, the drug war in Colombia, the Persian Gulf war, the wars in Afghanistan, Somalia, Yugoslavia, and Chechnya − more than 18 foreign conflicts. He documented the presidency of George W. Bush for Time, and is a founding member of the VII Photo Agency.<br />
In recent years, Morris has worked on his monograph, My America which was published in 2006. My America was produced while on assignment for TIME magazine covering U.S. President George W. Bush. Morris describes My America as his personal journey into a Republican America. Through portraits and landscapes, Morris hopes that the viewer &#8220;sees what he saw and feels what he felt &#8211; a nation that has wrapped its eyes so tightly in red, white, and blue that it has gone blind.&#8221;<br />
Morris has received a multitude of awards for his work, including the Robert Capa Gold Medal award, The Olivier Rebbot award and the Feature Photography award from the Overseas Press Club; the Magazine Photographer of the Year award from the University of Missouri School of Journalism; Two Infinity Photojournalist awards from the International Center of Photography, New York; the Visa d&#8217;Or award; and numerous World Press Photo Awards.</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Absolute  visions, outside of space and time. The search for the sublime  dimension where Form, Essence, and Beauty flow with clean, perfect, and  indefinite borders. A search where the final point of arrival is unknown  since it is not a landing place to which one can anchor firmly, but  rather a region to explore endlessly. Catching a moment’s gesture in  order to make it eternal without freezing it, celebrating it in the  suspension that creates communication between the everyday ordinary and  the primary beat of the Eternal Feminine.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">It  is a continuous exploration where there is no longer contradiction  between the immobility of a fixed image and the widespread palpitation  of life that flows uninterruptedly: the infinite exploration of the  moment when photographer and model meet.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">“Beauty  and Seduction remain in silent contemplation, in the expansion of time,  in the detail of a gesture only just suggested. A gesture blanketed in  the grace and nobility that only Woman, fountain of life and place of  beauty, can offer.”</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">This  will be the philosophy of the workshop, designed for the photography of  glamour and the nude, where each participant, beginning with an idea,  will develop a project to complete with the available models during the  workshop.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">The  course intends to analyze and explore the feminine intimacy with images  that don’t stop with the simple beauty of the subject but know how to  relate something that is absolute.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">It  will be an extreme, refined, elegant, personal, and intimate study  between the feminine subject and the students, led by Gabriele Rigon: a  workshop in which the study of the location, the light, and the subject  will aim to obtain absolute images that go beyond time and space.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Gabriele  Rigon was born in 1961. He began taking his first pictures as a “combat  camera” while he was a helicopter pilot during the peace missions.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Over the years, his photographic interests have moved towards the study of the human figure.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">His  attention is particularly focused on the feminine figure, inspirer both  of form and eroticism. In his opinion, EROS is not only the nude but  the essence itself of femininity. He considers the feminine nude  seductive and irresistible, and maybe one of the most beautiful forms in  nature.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Over  the years, he has published photographs of Fashion and Glamour in all  the most important magazines in the sector, and he has produced over 40  book covers.</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Toscana 2011 •  31 Luglio / 6 Agosto </span></span></h6>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Visioni assolute, fuori dal tempo e dallo spazio. Alla ricerca della dimensione sublime, nel quale Forma Sostanza e Bellezza fluiscono con contorni puliti, perfetti, mai definitivi. Una ricerca destinata a non conoscere punto di arrivo finale, poiché il suo oggetto non è un approdo a cui ancorarsi saldamente, ma piuttosto una regione da esplorare senza sosta. Cogliere il gesto di un attimo per eternarlo senza congelarlo, celebrarlo nella sospensione che mette in comunicazione la prosaicità quotidiana con la pulsazione primigenia dell’Eterno Femminile.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Una continua esplorazione dove non vi è più contraddizione tra l’immobilità di un’immagine fissata ed il palpito diffuso della vita che scorre ininterrotta: l’esplorazione infinita del momento dell’incontro tra il fotografo e la modella.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">“La Bellezza e la Seduzione stanno nella contemplazione silenziosa, nella dilatazione del tempo, nel dettaglio di un gesto appena suggerito. Un gesto ammantato di quella grazia e nobiltà che solo la Donna, fonte di vita e luogo di bellezza, può regalare.”.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Questa sarà la filosofia del workshop, destinato alla fotografia di glamour e di nudo, dove ciascun partecipante, partendo da un’idea, porterà avanti un progetto da realizzare nell’ambito del workshop, con le modelle a disposizione.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Il corso si prefigge di analizzare ed esplorare l’intimità femminile, attraverso immagini che non si fermino di fronte alla semplice bellezza del soggetto, ma sappiano raccontare qualcosa di assoluto.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Sarà una ricerca estrema, raffinata, elegante, personale ed intima fra il soggetto femminile e gli studenti, provocata da Gabriele Rigon: un workshop in cui lo studio della location, della luce e del soggetto, punteranno ad ottenere immagini assolute e al di fuori del tempo e dello spazio.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Gabriele Rigon è nato nel 1961, ha iniziato a scattare le sue prime fotografie come “combat camera” durante le missioni di pace dove era impegnato come pilota di elicottero.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Durante gli anni i suoi interessi fotografici si sono spostati verso lo studio della figura umana.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">La sua attenzione si rivolge in particolare alla figura femminile, ispiratrice sia di forma, sia di erotismo. A suo avviso &#8220;EROS&#8221; non è solamente il nudo, ma l&#8217;essenza stessa della femminilità. Considera il nudo femminile seducente ed irresistibile, forse una delle forme più belle della natura.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c7c7c7;">Negli anni ha pubblicato fotografie di Moda e di Glamour in tutte le riviste più importanti del settore, e ha realizzato oltre 40 copertine di libri.</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #db2336;">Bangkok, March 13-20</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">As all these mysteries are beyond us, we could feign to be the organizers, wrote Jean Cocteau.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">It is a wonderful sentence to describe the mystery of Photography.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">If  a photograph is initially taken to show or reveal something, for me it  is much more interesting when it suggests something, a feeling that is  difficult to put into words.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Photography is more an art of perception than an art of creation.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">How  do you show or reveal something that you are touched by through  photography? How do you not only depict the subject, but also the  emotion you feel in the presence of this subject?</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">When  I am moved by a photograph, it is through the feeling, the emotion of  the &#8220;author&#8221; of this image. If a portrait is to be a good one, a true  portrait, the image must contain the personality of the model as well as  of the photographer.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">A great portrait is a meeting between three people: the model, the photographer and the viewer.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Photography: to write with light. This is obvious&#8230;</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The  light is not only the means to inscribe images on your negative (or  memory card), the light is also YOUR ACCOMPLICE to express your emotion  about the subject you are drawn to, to share with other people who will  be looking at your photographs. The light is your best friend to render  your feelings.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Any  source of light has the potential to create &#8220;good photography&#8221;. The sun  or even a simple light bulb hanging from the ceiling could lend a  wonderful light for a portrait, a nude, or anything, really.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Photography  is primarily an art of contemplation. We are photographers because we  need to share our emotions.Technique is only secondary, but it is  necessary if we are to express our feelings in the best way possible.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Many photographers are great photographers, without beeing great technicians.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">They  know perfectly the technique they need for their expression. The  technique is the instrument but more important is the music you are  yearning to express.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #b2b2b2;">Beyond the so-called “natural” light, it’s important to see and explore the atmospheric light in photography or, in other words, the light that one finds in all places. This also includes artificial light – not the light in a studio. More importantly, it is the light in a room or in a city at night. We will, therefore, explore the nocturnal light, walking through the night to not only take pictures of the night atmosphere but also of night portraits. We will learn and we will see that when we think there is no longer enough light, or light at all, there is always light for an image. When there is no longer quantity, there is always quality that remains – this is a truth for light.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">_______________________________________</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Bangkok ( the city of angels) is in essence a place full of exoticism. In the same way far-eastern models are the faces of a different culture. One of the main aims of this workshop is to avoid cheap exoticism, to avoid clichés. It will therefore be most interesting to try to express one’s feelings beyond the subject. The subject is never important. In a personal photograph it is what you feel deeply when you face the subject that matters. To do this in a place, and with models that remind us of cheap and common touristic pictures, will be very interesting. We will avoid the common erotic vision of the Asian woman and try to come closer to the essential being…what I like to define as the sensuality of the soul.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">____________________________________________<br />
</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Letter to the students: Your emotion is more important than the subject.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">At  first I have to say that you will find in Tuscany a real beautiful  light and It will be the best place to improve the way to work  essentially with natural light, as much outside than inside the house.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">I will push you to realize that the most beautiful light is not in professional photography studios, but around you, everywhere.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The  way in using light in photography is not &#8220;making lighting&#8221; but just  looking at the light and thinking about what could  result in your  photographs.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">I  will emphasize during our week together the mystery of photography,  about the paradox of recording reality with the camera, but at the same  time capturing a certain intangible mystery, a suggestion of something  not seen that makes a photograph interesting.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">What is a good photograph?</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">For  me , it is something that is lurking, lingering, something that you can  not describe, but something, like a vibration that touches you.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">A  good photograph is always a small miracle. We need to learn how to  perfect our technique in order to be able to capture these little  miracles which present themselves to us for the taking.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">During  this week I would like to leave competition with others and with  yourselves behind. I would like you to just be who you are, what you  feel, what you want to express through photography.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">There is no sense in making a &#8220;beautiful picture&#8221;  if your heart is not in it.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">I  would like each of you to arrive at the end of the week with ONE image (  or even better more than one ) that truly demonstrates this &#8220;feeling&#8221;  for you. An image which says &#8220;This is me&#8221;.  &#8221;I am completely in this  image&#8221;</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">I  would like you to bring, together with your portfolio, two to three  images that you like a lot. (Not your own!) It could be a famous  photograph by a famous photographer or a picture in a magazine or any  anonymous image like an old postcard for example. The idea is that I  will ask you to each to try to explain why you like these photographs  and after that try to explain how the photograph is made, and how and  why the technique used in each image lends to it a certain emotion.  Please choose photographs where the lighting is especially important.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The  essential aim of this workshop is that each of you will come back with a  better awareness of light and all the ways we can use it to express  what we want in a photograph. In addition to the light, I would like you  to become more conscious of the final result that you are after before  setting out to make an image.I do not remember who said: less is more  but for me the best way to express ourselves with photography is often  to show less, to avoid things which have no importance in an image and  which could distract the eye.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">We  will work with models but It won&#8217;t be a typical nudes workshop, I am  waiting for more than formal nudes, something more than showing a  beautiful body with beautiful light . I would like you to do also  portraits: Faces are the most mysterious part of a body , but also you  could do just images of atmosphere, with always the aim to express the  emotion you would like to render in the image with the light . I will  ask also to each of you to do a self-portrait to express:</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">&#8220;Me  in Tuscany&#8221;. A way to express your feeling being there during this  week, far or not from your home, far from your usual life. Doing a  self-portrait is a good way to push you to express yourself sincerely.</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #db2336;">Bangkok, March 13-20</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">&#8220;Puisque tous ces mystères nous dépassent, feignons d&#8217;en être les organisateurs&#8221; Jean Cocteau</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Quando  tutti questi misteri ci oltrepassano, potremmo fingere di essere  organizzatori, scrisse Jean Cocteau. E’ una frase splendida per  descrivere il mistero della Fotografia.<br />
Se una fotografia è scattata inizialmente per mostrare o rivelare  qualcosa, per me è molto più interessante quando suggerisce qualcosa, un  sentimento che è difficile descrivere a parole. La fotografia è più  un’arte della percezione che un’arte della creazione.<br />
Come fate a mostrare o rivelare qualcosa che vi emoziona attraverso la  fotografia? Come si può non descrivere soltanto il soggetto, ma anche  l’emozione che provate di fronte al soggetto stesso? Quando sono  emozionato da una fotografia, è sempre attraverso il sentimento,  l’emozione “dell’autore” di questa immagine. Per far sì che il ritratto  sia una bella fotografia, un vero ritratto, l’immagine deve contenere  sia la personalità della modella che del fotografo.<br />
Un bellissimo ritratto è un incontro tra tre persone: la modella, il  fotografo e lo spettatore. La Fotografia è scrivere con la luce. Questo è  ovvio&#8230;<br />
La luce non è soltanto il mezzo per imprimere le immagini sui vostri  negativi (o memory card per il digitale), la luce è anche vostra  complice per esprimere le emozioni sul soggetto dal quale siete  attirati, e condividerle con la gente che guarderà le vostre fotografie.  La luce è la vostra migliore amica per rendere al meglio i vostri  sentimenti.<br />
Qualsiasi fonte di luce possiede potenziale per creare “una buona  fotografia”. Il sole, o una semplice lampadina sospesa nel soffitto,  potrebbe prestarvi una splendida luce per un ritratto, un nudo, o  qualsiasi altra cosa. La fotografia è principalmente arte di  contemplazione. Siamo fotografi perché abbiamo bisogno condividere le  nostre emozioni. La tecnica è solo secondaria, ma è necessaria se  vogliamo esprimere i nostri sentimenti nel miglior modo possibile.<br />
Molti fotografi sono grandi fotografi senza essere grandi tecnici.  Conoscono perfettamente la tecnica che utilizzano per la loro  espressione. La tecnica è lo strumento, ma la musica che desidearate  esprimere è più importante.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">_____________________________________________</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Bangkok è per essenza un luogo pieno di esotismo, i modelli asiatici sono per noi i volti di un&#8217;altra cultura. Uno degli scopi principali di questo workshop è quello di evitare di cadere in questo esotismo spesso facile e di evitare i clichés, i luoghi comuni. Sarà quindi ancora più interessante cercare di esprimere le emozioni al di là del soggetto. La cosa importante non è mai il soggetto, ma il sentimento che si sente di fronte a lui ed è questo che conta in una fotografia personale. Ciò sarà quindi particolarmente interessante in un luogo e con dei modelli che ci rimandano ad immagini turistiche e banali. Eviteremo i clichés erotici della donna asiatica per avvicinarci all’essere. A quello che amo definire la sensualità dell’anima.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Al di là della luce detta “naturale”, è importante vedere ed esplorare la luce ambientale in fotografia, cioè la luce che si trova in tutti i luoghi. Quindi anche la luce artificiale, ma non la luce di studio, ma piuttosto la luce di una camera, di una città durante la notte. Esploreremo quindi la luce notturna passeggiando nella notte per fare non solo foto di atmosfere notturne ma anche ritratti notturni. Impareremo e vedremo che quando pensiamo che non c’è più luce o non abbastanza, c&#8217;è sempre una luce per un&#8217;immagine. Quando non c’è più la quantità rimane sempre la qualità, è una verità per la luce.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">___________________________________________<br />
</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Lettera agli studenti: la vostra emozione è più importante del soggetto.<br />
Prima di tutto devo dirvi che in Toscana troverete una luce davvero  bella e sarà il posto migliore per migliorare il modo di lavorare  essenzialmente con luce naturale, sia in esterni che nelle case. Vi  aiuterò a capire che la luce più bella non è quella professionale da  studio, ma quella che vi circonda, ovunque.<br />
Il modo di utilizzare la luce nella fotografia non è attraverso gli  strumenti di illuminazione, ma semplicemente guardando la luce e  pensando al risultato delle vostre fotografie.<br />
Durante la settimana in Toscana, parleremo molto del mistero della  fotografia, il paradosso di registrare la realtà con una macchina  fotografica, ma allo stesso tempo catturare un certo mistero  intangibile, un suggerimento di qualcosa non visto che rende una  fotografia interessante.<br />
Cose’è una bella fotografia?<br />
Per me, è qualcosa che si nasconde, che esita, qualcosa che non si può  descrivere, ma qualcosa come una scossa che ti tocca. Una bella  fotografia è sempre un piccolo miracolo. Dobbiamo imparare a  perfezionare la nostra tecnica per poter essere in grado di catturare  questi piccoli miracoli che ci rappresentano.<br />
Durante questa settimana mi piacerebbe lasciare alle spalle le  competizioni con gli altri e con voi stessi. Mi piacerebbe che ognuno di  voi fosse se stesso, ciò che sentite, ciò che volete esprimere  attraverso la fotografia. Non ha senso creare una “bella immagine” se il  vostro cuore non vi trova dentro.<br />
Vorrei che ognuno di voi arrivasse alla fine della settimana con una  immagine (o anche più di una) che davvero riesca a dimostrare questo  sentimento per voi. Un’immagine che dica: “Questo sono io. Faccio  completamente parte di questa immagine”.<br />
Vorrei che ognuno di voi portasse, oltre al vostro portolfio, due o tre  immagini che vi piacciono molto (non le vostre!). Potrebbero essere di  un fotografo famoso o una foto su una rivista o qualsiasi immagine  anonima, come ad esempio una vecchia cartolina. La mia idea è di  chiedervi perché vi piacciono queste immagini e di spiegarmi come sono  state scattate, e come e perché la tecnica utilizzata in ogni immagine  vi regala una particolare emozione. Vi prego di scegliere una foto nella  quale la luce è particolarmente importante.<br />
Lo scopo principale di questo workshop è quello di tornare a casa con  una conoscenza migliore della luce e tutte i modi di utilizzarla per  esprimere ciò che vogliamo in una fotografia. Oltre alla luce, vorrei  che diventaste più consapevoli del risultato finale di una fotografia  ancor prima di crearla. Per me il modo migliore per esprimere noi stessi  attraverso la fotografia è spesso mostrando meno, evitando cose che non  hanno importanza in un’immagine e che potrebbe distrarre i nostri  occhi. Lavoreremo con modelle, ma non sarà un tipico corso di nudo.  Voglio più che nudi formali, qualcosa in più di un bel corpo con della  bella luce. Mi piacerebbe che voi faceste anche dei ritratti: il viso è  la parte più misteriosa del corpo, ma potreste semplicemente fare foto  di atmosfera, sempre con lo scopo di esprimere l’emozione che vi  piacerebbe rendere nell’immagine con l’utilizzo della luce. Vi chiederò  anche di fare degli auto-ritratti per esprimere: “Io in Toscana”. Un  modo per esprimere i vostri sentimenti durante la settimana in questa  regione, lontani dalla vostra vita di tutti i giorni.

<p><span style="color: #be2238;">Bangkok March 13 &#8211; 19, 2011</span></p>
<p>James Whitlow Delano will work with participants to help them to develop a personal documentary style.  Bangkok offers a diverse, gritty, often visually sublime environment to challenge students.</p>
<p>On the first day, Delano will share his own projects and experiences to describe how to find a story, how to proceed, develop a time line, &amp; budget, etc.  In the afternoon, participants share stories shot before the workshop and receive critique of work.</p>
<p>Participants will then be introduced to theme choices (provisionally <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Air, Fire Water</span>, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Change</span>, or <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Night vs Day</span>).</p>
<p>They will go out into the streets to photograph their own personal Bangkok project in the mornings and evenings.  During the afternoons, participants share stories in progress and receive critiques of work in groups and individually.</p>
<p>During the week, we will invite guest speaker Yumi Goto, long-term resident of Bangkok, editor, curator and founder of the blog, (<span style="text-decoration: underline;">http://reminders-project.org/</span>) to share her experiences and insights on the photo world, particularly from an Asian perspective.</p>
<p>There will also be open, frank dialogue on how to work in the global world of editorial photography, and how to submit stories to clients from the Europe, U.S. and in Asia.  Students will learn to prepare a story or portfolio for magazine editors and how to present work for diverse venues, like galleries, photo festivals, or for NGO work.  .  Delano will discuss tools for promoting one’s work and establishing a user-friendly presence online accessible from anywhere.</p>
<p>On the final day, participants have to prepare a 10 photograph edit of the story they shot while at workshop.  Participants will polish up their Bangkok story and prepare their tight edit for the final slideshow presentation.  Instructor will be available for consultation when needed.</p>
<p>In the evening there will be the final group projection with fellow participants from the workshop, with final commentary of each students’ personal Bangkok project and a final dinner will take place after the slide show.</p>
<p>James Whitlow Delano has lived in and documented Asia for over a decade and a half.  His work has been awarded internationally from the Alfred Eisenstadt Award (from Columbia University and Life Magazine), Leica Oskar Barnack, Picture of the Year International, Photo District News and others.  Delano&#8217;s series on Kabul&#8217;s drug detox and psychiatric hospital was awarded 1st place in the 2008 NPPA Best of Photojournalism competition for Best Picture Story (large markets).  His first monograph book, <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Empire: Impressions from China</span></strong> (Five Continents Editions) and work from <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Japan</span></strong> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Mangaland</span></strong> have been shown at several Leica Galleries in Europe and <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Empire</span></strong> was the first ever one-person show of photography at La Triennale di Milano Museum of Art in Italy.  His second monograph book, <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">I Viaggi di Tiziano Terzani</span></strong> (Vallardi / Longanesi) was released in spring 2008.  His work has appeared in New York Times Magazine, National Geographic Books, GEO, Newsweek, Mother Jones, Time Asia, Internazionale, Le Monde 2, Vanity Fair Italia, and others.  His work has shown in international photo festivals from Visa Pour L’Image and Rencontres D’Arles to photo festivals at Angkor, Cambodia, Lianzhou, China, Noorderlicht, Netherlands, Rovereto, Italia and Foto Freo, Australia; and is held in permanent museum collections internationally including Museo Fotografia Contemporanea, Milano, Italy and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Texas.</p>

<p></br><br />
<span style="color: #888888;">Bangkok is the ideal base for discovering the innumerable faces of contemporary Asia. It is a very modern capital and pleasant city to live in, but it also remains deeply immersed in the eastern culture, Buddhist spirituality, and regional politics.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">All of the aspects that made this city famous are still here: a national spirit that has never been broken by colonial domination, the artistic grandeur of golden temples and sacred places are experienced intensely, the nightlife that challenges the imagination and goes well beyond the expected, and the nature, both on the coasts and inland, that is so famous it doesn’t need a description.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">The site of the TPW Orient will be a hotel in the historic heart of the city, in the center of lively situations both day and night, but it is also self-contained in a sort of green oasis that guarantees the necessary tranquility for synthesizing the richness of the images captured in the metropolis. The hotel is easily accessible at any moment and reachable within a few minutes.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">It is also easy to reach a variety of interesting countries from Bangkok that are at the center of the most dynamic contemporary evolution, from China to India and including the entire southeast Asia. At the same time, it is easy to constantly receive influences from these regions. This location is certainly one that offers the most ideas, stimuli and technological support in the world.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Bangkok è la base ideale per scoprire gli innumerevoli volti dell’Asia contemporanea. E’ una capitale modernissima, una città piacevole da vivere, ma resta profondamente immersa nella cultura orientale, nella spiritualità buddista, nella politica regionale.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Gli aspetti che l’hanno resa famosa sono ancora tutti qui. Uno spirito nazionale mai piegato da dominazioni coloniali. La grandiosità artistica di templi dorati e luoghi sacri vissuti intensamente. La vita notturna che sfida la fantasia e riesce ad andare bel oltre l’ovvio. Una natura, sia sul mare che nell’interno, tanto famosa da non necessitare descrizioni.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">La sede del TPW Orient sarà un albergo nel cuore storico della città, nel centro di situazioni vivaci giorno e notte, ma tanto autocontenuto in una sorta di oasi verde da garantire quella tranquillità necessaria a sintetizzare la ricchezza di situazioni catturate nella metropoli. Che resta accessibile in ogni momento e in pochi minuti.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Da Bangkok poi è facilissimo raggiungere un mosaico di paesi interessanti, al centro dell’evoluzione contemporanea più dinamica: dalla Cina fino all’India includendo l’intero sud est asiatico. E, viceversa, ricevere costantemente influenze da queste regioni.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;">Certamente una location che non potrebbe offrire più spunti, stimoli e supporto tecnologico al mondo.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888;"> </span></p>

<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;">Kolkata, India • <strong>November 2-9, 2013</strong></span><strong><strong> </strong></strong></h5>
<p><strong>From the noisy, bustling streets of the major cities to the spectacularly beautiful countryside India is a sight to behold. Generations of visitors have returned home with compelling tales of adventure and unique encounters that live on in their memory.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>There are many spectacular locations to be found on the subcontinent but for the real India most of my Indian friends agree that Kolkata (formerly Calcutta) is the place to go. Its streets offer up a rich pageant of all that life has to offer. For photographers such a place is a gift; you have only to spend an hour wandering through its streets and you are sure to capture compelling moments that offer an insight into the human condition.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>This will be our 5th year in Kolkata, “The City of Joy”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Our base will be at the Fairlawn Hotel.  Do not expect fancy rooms, but do expect an experience. The Fairlawn is a special place in central Kolkata, a meeting point for artist, writers, journalists and photographers. It will offer the perfect atmosphere for our work.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>This workshop will offer the possibility to work on personal projects on daily life of one of the world’s most fascinating cities, and at the same time learn and develop the skills to produce work for future publication.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Kolkata is probably the city that better represents all the aspects and contradictions of modern India. Away from the mass touristy tours of colourful Rajastan and mystic Varanasi, Kolkata will raise your visual interest you at different levels. From the poors begging on the streets, to the rich mansion of Kolkata’s elite, to the intellectual circles which are the essence of the city, through the decadent palaces of a disappearing world, you will be surprised of how the city, despite its almost 15 million habitants, manages to work and be organized.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>The flower market, the temple to Kali at Kalighat, shopping areas in Park Street, young men playing soccer and cricket at the Maidan are part of daily life, as are the many NGO working to help the less fortunate. Yellow Taxis run together with rickshaws pullers, in a chaotic but still well orchestrated traffic. Remains of the British Empire, such as exclusive clubs and old building, mark their presence, together with Hindu temples, food markets, schools…<br />
Despite all this, you will find a humanity hard to find in other Indian mega-cities (it is the third city of India after Delhi and Mumbai).</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>In a few days, the area around our Hotel will became as familiar to you as your home. The chai (tea) seller will recognize you, same young kids will ask you every day to clean your shoes, rickshaw pullers will smile and ask you to go for a ride…it is impossible not to fall for this city and his humanity.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>The digital age is giving photographers extraordinary new ways to create and organize our photographic projects. This workshop will show how to utilize the power of great photography with the new digital workflow to extend the ability of the visual storyteller. Jonathan Torgovnik  will share examples of his personal projects and work to illustrate the possibilities of photography as a source of passion, personal expression and communicative power. He will discuss how you develop an idea, get access to your subject, determine your goals and present your work to editors. The objective is to share the passions for photography and inject that spirit into the students. Digital photography is just a new tool and what is most important is to understand the traditions of photography, storytelling, narrative and intimacy so we can integrate these qualities into our work in the most effective manner possible.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>There will also be presentations and discussion on multimedia, how it fits into the changing landscape of media today and what and where the opportunities are for creativity and distribution of your work.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>The students will view the instructor’s work, outlining the complete process of creating a project from beginning to end. Each student should expect to shoot a photo essay during the workshop that deals with some aspect of life in Kolkata.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Our workshop takes place during Diwali, one of India’s most celebrated festivities.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>During Diwali the heart leaps with joy: after  all, this is perhaps the most gala festival celebrated almost throughout the country. Diwali is largely believed to commemorate the return of Lord Rama to his home after 14 years of banishment. Other legends are also associated with Diwali. For instance, in Karnataka, it is the celebration of Lord Vishnu’s triumph over King Bali. Whatever be the belief, the spirit of merriment and joy possesses one and all. Here is a look at the different flavours of Diwali across the country.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Kolkata celebrates Diwali in its own signature style and seems to personify the term, ‘city of joy’. Kali Puja or Shyama Puja is held at midnight and the deity is offered lamb or buffalo calf for sacrifice. The day before the Puja, thousands of diyas, small bulbs, and little candles are used for lighting up the entire city. During Dewali Kolkata is wonderfully decorated by light &amp; illumination shows. This is one thing which is unique in its technology &amp; creativity.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Jonathan TorgovnikJonathan Torgovnik was born in Israel, and graduated with a BFA degree from the School of Visual Arts in New York, where he studied Photography and Art. His photographs from various projects and assignments have been published in numerous International publications including <em>Newsweek, Aperture, GEO, The Sunday Times Magazine, Stern, Paris Match, and Mother Jones</em> among others. Torgovnik has been a contract photographer for <em>Newsweek </em>magazine since 2005, and is on the faculty of the International Center of Photography School in New York.  He is the author of two books: <em>Bollywood Dreams</em> (<em>Phaidon</em>, 2003), and <em>Intended Consequences: Rwanda Children Born of Rape</em> (<em>Aperture</em>, 2009).</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Torgovnik’s award-winning photographs have been included in numerous solo and group exhibitions around the world and are in the permanent collections of museums and institutions such as <em>The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston</em>, the <em>Bibliotheque National De France</em> in Paris, and the <em>Library of congress, Washington, DC. </em>He has received numerous honors such as The National Portrait Gallery Portrait Prize in the UK, the Open Society Institute Documentary photography Project Fellowship Grant, Getty Images Grant for Editorial Photography, the ASMP/PDN Alfred Newman Prize, an Emmy nomination, and the DuPont Columbia University journalism Award for his short multimedia film “<em>Intended Consequences” produced by MediaStorm. He </em>has also received awards from: World Press Photo, Picture Of The Year International, American Photography, Graphis, Communication Arts, and Photo District News.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Torgovnik is the co-founder and President of <em>Foundation Rwanda </em>an NGO that supports secondary school education for children born of rape during the Rwandan genocide.</strong></p>

<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;">Kolkata,India • <strong>2-9 Novembre, 2013<br />
</strong></span></h5>
<p><strong>Dalle chiassose e animate vie delle grandi città alla sorprendente bellezza delle campagne, l’India è uno spettacolo da vedere. Generazioni di viaggiatori sono tornati a casa con storie avvincenti di avventure e straordinari incontri, incisi nella loro memoria.  Il paese è ricco di luoghi spettacolari, ma per la vera India, molti dei miei amici indiani concordano sul fatto che Kolkata (precedentemente chiamata Calcutta) è sicuramente il posto dove andare. Le sue strade offrono una ricca parata di tutto ciò che la vita ha da offrire. Per esperienza personale, posso dire che Kolkata ha molto da offrire e non soltanto a livello visivo!</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>La nostra base operativa sarà al Fairlawn Hotel. Non aspettatevi stanza lussuose, ma aspettatevi di sicuro un’esperienza vera. Il Fairlawn è un luogo speciale nel cuore di Kolkata, un punto di ritrovo di artisti, scrittori, giornalisti e fotografi. Vi offrirà l’atmosfera perfetta per il vostro lavoro.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Kolkata è probabilmente la città che meglio rappresenta tutti gli aspetti e le contraddizioni dell’India moderna. Lontana dagli affollati tour turistici che si riversano nel coloratissimo Rajastan, o nel mistico Varanasi, Kolkata saprà sollecitare il vostro interesse visuale a diversi livelli. Dai mendicanti per le strade, alle lussuose ville dell’elite della città, dagli ambienti intellettuali che sono il cuore pulsante della metropoli, attraverso i palazzi decadenti di un mondo che sta ormai svanendo, rimarrete sorpresi di come una città di oltre 15 milioni di abitanti, faccia funzionare le cose e sia organizzata. Il mercato dei fiori, il tempio dedicato a Kali al Kalighat, le vie dello shopping a Park Street, i giovani che giocano a calcio o a cricket al Maidan sono parte integrante della vita quotidiana, così come lo sono le numerose ONG che lavorano per rendere migliore la vita dei meno fortunati. I taxi gialli sfrecciano per le strade, fianco a fianco con i tiratori di risciò, in un traffico caotico, ma tutto sommato ben orchestrato. Resti dell’Impero Britannico, come i club esclusivi e i vecchi edifici, segnano la loro presenza affianco ai tempi Hindu, ai mercati e alle scuole… Nonostante tutto ciò, scoprirete un’umanità difficile da trovare nelle altre mega città indiane (è la terza città in India, dopo Delhi e Mumbai).</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>In pochi giorni, l’area intorno al nostro hotel vi diventerà famigliare come quella di casa. I venditori di chai (té) vi riconosceranno, i soliti bambini chiederanno ogni giorno di pulirvi le scarpe, i portatori di risciò vi sorrideranno chiedendovi di fare un giro…</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>E’ impossibile non innamorarsi di questa città e della sua umanità.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>L’era digitale sta regalando ai fotografi nuove e sorprendenti modi per creare e organizzare i propri progetti. Questo workshop mostrerà come utilizzare il grande potere della fotografia attraverso nuovi flussi di lavoro digitale, in grado di ampliare le abilità di un visual storyteller.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Jonathan Torkovnik  condividerà esempi dei suoi progetti personali e lavori per il National Geographic e altre grandi riviste, al fine di illustrare le possibilità della fotografia come una fonte di passione, espressione personale e potere comunicativo. Discuterà, inoltre, di come sviluppare una propria idea, avvicinarsi al proprio soggetto, determinare i propri obiettivi e presentare il proprio lavoro alle redazioni. Lo scopo è quello di condividere la passione per la fotografia e infondere questo spirito agli studenti.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>La fotografia digitale è semplicemente un nuovo strumento e la cosa importante è capire le sue tradizioni e le tecniche di narrazione, di modo da poterle integrare nel vostro lavoro nel modo più efficace possibile. Verranno anche proiettate presentazioni e si discuterà sul multimedia, su come si adatti nel mutevole panorama mediatico del giorno d’oggi e dove cercare e trovare le giuste occasioni per lanciare il proprio lavoro.<br />
Gli studenti avranno modo di vedere il lavoro dell’insegnante, delineando l’intero processo della creazione di un progetto dall’inizio alla fine. Durante il workshop, ogni studente deve prevedere di elaborare una propria storia che tratti l’aspetto della vita a Kolkata.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Il workshop ha luogo durante la settimana del Diwali, una delle feste più popolari di tutta l’India.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Diwali commemora il ritorno del Lord Rama a casa, dopo 14 anni di interdizione. Altre leggende, lo associano al trionfo di  Vishnu su King Bali. In generale, lo spirito di gioia e allegria è comune. Kolkata celebra il Diwali a modo suo, she sembra immedesimarsi nel termine “Città della Gioia”. I festeggiamenti iniziano a mezzanotte, quando vengono offerte agli dei agnello o bufalo. Piccole candele, sia naturali che artificiali, illuminano l’intera città e il fiume: Per tutta la durata del Diwali (5 giorni) la città è costantemente illuminata da queste, creando uno spettacolo unico per creatività e tecnica.</strong></p>

<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">Bangkok  is the ideal base for discovering the innumerable faces of contemporary  Asia. It is a very modern capital and pleasant city to live in, but it  also remains deeply immersed in the eastern culture, Buddhist  spirituality, and regional politics.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">All  of the aspects that made this city famous are still here: a national  spirit that has never been broken by colonial domination, the artistic  grandeur of golden temples and sacred places are experienced intensely,  the nightlife that challenges the imagination and goes well beyond the  expected, and the nature, both on the coasts and inland, that is so  famous it doesn’t need a description.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">The  site of the TPW Orient will be a hotel in the historic heart of the  city, in the center of lively situations both day and night, but it is  also self-contained in a sort of green oasis that guarantees the  necessary tranquility for synthesizing the richness of the images  captured in the metropolis. The hotel is easily accessible at any moment  and reachable within a few minutes.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">It  is also easy to reach a variety of interesting countries from Bangkok  that are at the center of the most dynamic contemporary evolution, from  China to India and including the entire southeast Asia. At the same  time, it is easy to constantly receive influences from these regions.  This location is certainly one that offers the most ideas, stimuli and  technological support in the world.</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #b2b2b2;">______________________________________________________</span></p>
<p>_____________________________________________________________</p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">Bangkok è la base ideale per scoprire gli innumerevoli volti dell’Asia contemporanea. E’ una capitale modernissima, una città piacevole da vivere, ma resta profondamente immersa nella cultura orientale, nella spiritualità buddista, nella politica regionale.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">Gli aspetti che l’hanno resa famosa sono ancora tutti qui. Uno spirito nazionale mai piegato da dominazioni coloniali. La grandiosità artistica di templi dorati e luoghi sacri vissuti intensamente. La vita notturna che sfida la fantasia e riesce ad andare bel oltre l’ovvio. Una natura, sia sul mare che nell’interno, tanto famosa da non necessitare descrizioni.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">La sede del TPW Orient sarà un albergo nel cuore storico della città, nel centro di situazioni vivaci giorno e notte, ma tanto autocontenuto in una sorta di oasi verde da garantire quella tranquillità necessaria a sintetizzare la ricchezza di situazioni catturate nella metropoli. Che resta accessibile in ogni momento e in pochi minuti.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">Da Bangkok poi è facilissimo raggiungere un mosaico di paesi interessanti, al centro dell’evoluzione contemporanea più dinamica: dalla Cina fino all’India includendo l’intero sud est asiatico. E, viceversa, ricevere costantemente influenze da queste regioni.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">Certamente una location che non potrebbe offrire più spunti, stimoli e supporto tecnologico al mondo.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #d23749;">INFORMAZIONI PRATICHE</span></p>

<h3><strong><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"> </span></span></strong><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"> </span></span></h3>
<h4><span style="color: #ff0000;">Burma · Myanmar  -  February 9-20, 2013</span></h4>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">Burma is the most challenging country in South East Asia. Full of contradictions and beauty. The political isolation, precluding any social development, has preserved the most pristine cultural environment in the region and photographers have been roaming the country for years. Our project, based on the long experience of many operators within the secluded borders, focuses on the cultural roots of modern Myanmar. All within the very geographical and cultural centre of the land, we will include the monumental vastness of Bagan, a local boat trip along the Irrawaddy river, and a drive into the most intact northern interior. The itinerary will start in the mythical city of Mandalay where we’ll see some of the richest cultural realities in Asia.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">Following the philosophy of TPW Orient, we are not going to organize yet another photographic journey but a veritable collective workshop. Photography may be as varied as anyone can dream, but we’ll encourage working on a personal project that will help focus the whole experience, such as the Buddhist religious culture, a kaleidoscope of Pagodas and Monasteries crowded by thousands of saffron monks, or the worship of Spirits (this is the most devoted area to the Nats). Another focus could be a magnificent environment or the truest daily street life ever imaginable.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">The program will start with leaving from Bangkok to Yangon, the original capital city, where we’ll visit the splendid Shwedagon pagoda, the most sacred and important religious monument in the country, and we’ll spend the first night there.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">On the second day, we’ll fly to Mandalay, the old imperial capital and cultural centre of modern Myanmar. Here is a myriad of Buddhist monasteries, universities, and ancient monuments that will represent the best planning and introduction to our individual projects. We’ll spend three nights in Mandalay, before driving through the back country to the city of Monywar. This is well off the beaten track, but well into the real Burma where life has the same rhythm of one hundred years ago. From here, we will drive to the village of Pakoku, on the banks of the Irrawaddy river, and then by boat we will arrive at the UNESCO heritage site of Bagan. The most important archeological site is an ancient capital where thousands of pagodas remain, spread out in a dry plain. We will experience yet another inside view that will allow us to experience the place with different opportunities than those offered to mass tourism. We will spend three nights in Bagan, with an excursion to Mount Popa, the Nats’ sacred spirit worship centre. This will also be the place where we summarize the results of our photographic projects, having a final discussion and presentation.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c5c5c5;">On the tenth day, we’ll fly back to Bangkok via Yangon.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">________________________________________________</span></p>

<p>BIOGRAPHY</p>
<p><span style="color: #bcbcbc;">Born in Florence, <strong>Andrea </strong>studied geography at the local university. He continues to live between here, a home-place he considers not so much an urban center but a continuous source of inspiration, and Bangkok, ideal base to cover Asia.<br />
With the evolution of his vocation to explore man and places, Andrea has become a travel photographer specialized in geographic and social reportage in every part of the world. Today he works on assignment for major publications. His photographic <a href="http://www.pistolesiphoto.com/Books.html">BOOKS</a> on exotic destinations (<em>Indonesia, New Zealand, Morocco, South Africa, The Land of Buddha, Hinduism, Eastern Christianity</em>) have been published in addition to illustrated travel books on the major European subjects. He is the sole author of the photos in the Bonechi Publishers US book series (35 titles) and his book on prayer in the world&#8217;s major religions was published in 2007. A total of over 100 titles published internationally.<br />
Andrea has become especially known for his research on the use of existing light, which he combines with a formal yet personalized composition of his images, deeply influenced by his classical Florentine origins. He was one of the first explorers of the digital technology: his book “<em>Back in Town</em>”, dedicated to his first digital works, was published in 1998.<br />
He is holding workshops every year on Geographical and Digital Photography.<br />
The approach to Fine Art Photography came as a natural evolution of this professional career. His work has been exhibited both in Italy and abroad. He participated with a personal show at the VII Biennale di Fotografia in Turin and won the 1998 First Award in the Italian selection of the Fuji European Press Award.</span></p>

<h4><span style="color: #a90227;">Birmania · Myanmar  -  23 Febbraio &#8211; 4 Marzo , 2011</span></h4>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">La Birmania è lo stato più affascinante del Sud Est Asiatico. Piena di contraddizioni e bellezza: </span><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">la situazione politica, che ha precluso lo sviluppo sociale, ha preservato l’ambiente culturale intatto, e i fotografi hanno esplorato per anni questa zona.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Il nostro progetto, basato sull’esperienza di diverse guide, è focalizzato sulle radici culturali del moderno Myanmar. Muovendoci  entro i confini sia geografici che culturali del paese, includeremo la grandezza monumentale di Bagan e un percorso in barca lungo il fiume Irrawaddy per raggiungere territori remoti del nord. Un itinerario che inizia nella mitica città di Mandalay, osservando  alcune delle più suggestive situazioni in Asia.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Seguendo la filosofia del TPW Orient, questo non sarà l’ennesimo tour fotografico, ma un workshop fotografico intenso e mirato. Il tipo di soggetti fotografici è più vasto di quello che potete sognare e incoraggeremo l’idea di lavorare su uno o due progetti personali che rendano l’idea dell’esperienza di questo viaggio e dello spirito del luogo. Dalla cultura religiosa buddista – un caleidoscopio di pagode e monasteri affollati di monaci nei loro abiti color zafferano &#8211; alla adorazione degli spiriti (questa area è particolarmente devota ai Nats), ad un paesaggio mozzafiato o agli aspetti di  vita quotidiana nei villaggi.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Il programma inizia da Yangon, la capitale economica, dove visiteremo la splendida pagoda di Shwedagon, il monumento religioso più sacro del paese, e dove trascorreremo la prima notte.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Successivamente voleremo a Mandalay, la vecchia capitale imperiale e il centro culturale dell’attuale Myanmar. Qui troveremo un’altissima concentrazione di monasteri buddisti, università, antichi monumenti, dai quali prenderemo  spunto e ispirazione per pianificare i nostri progetti fotografici. Passeremo tre notti a Mandalay, prima di guidare nell’entroterra del paese, fino alla città di Monywar. Questa è fuori dai percorsi abituali, ma rappresenta il cuore del Myanmar, dove la vita ha gli stessi ritmi di cento anni fa.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Proseguiremo per il villaggio di Pakoku, sulle rive del fiume Irrawaddy,  e via fiume arriveremo al sito di Bagan, patrimonio dell’Unesco. E’ il sito più importante dal punto di vista archeologico, la vecchia capitale della quale restano centinaia di pagode sparse lungo la vallata. Avremo modo di vivere questa esperienza in maniera approfondita, diversamente dal mordi e fuggi del turismo di massa . Trascorreremo infatti tre notti a Bagan, con una visita al Monte Popa, il centro di adorazione degli spiriti sacri dei Nats. Questo sarà anche il luogo dove raccogliere le impressioni di questo viaggio, con una presentazione finale.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Il decimo giorno torneremo a Yangon, da dove  potrete proseguire il vostro viaggio o rientrare.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">_____________________________________________________</span></p>

<h4><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Laos · Cambodia -  March 21-30, 2011</span></h4>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">If the Mekong river is the main artery of Asia, a journey along it is the most impacting experience you can make in the continent. Traveling on this waterway between southern Laos and the Cambodian capital Phnom Penh  is like seeing the true cultural heart of South East Asia. From Pakse down to Champassak, the Khmer temple (a World Heritage Site) and further south to the 4000 islands area, we’ll find the true spirit of Laos, the country that best embodies the myth of the oriental bliss. Crossing the border, Cambodia is a completely different story: this is the area where the Khmer Rouge started their revolution that inspired Apocalypse Now, and it is still the most remote corner of this poverty torn nation. Life here is as basic and real as it can be, and the journey will be a true personal experience. We will then go to Phnom Penh, the capital that, although changing fast, is still the most charming with its colonial flavour.<br />
Following the philosophy of TPW Orient, we are not going to organize yet another photographic journey but a veritable collective workshop. Photography in this trip is a mix of daily life and landscape along the banks of the Mekong, mostly taken from small wooden boats that can make frequent stops in the villages and among the 4000 islands. In Phnom Penh, street life and cultural venues will offer a modern, urban completion of the photographic project.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Arriving at the Laos border from Bangkok (a combination of travel by plane and car) we’ll start the program in the city of Pakse, a bustling market. The second day we’ll go by boat to Champassak, the UNESCO site where the Khmer temple is second in importance only to Angkor. Two nights here will give us the time to also visit villages and ancient temples along the river. On the fourth day, we will move again by small boat toward the 4000 islands area. This is a unique environment, with colonial history and palm trees where we can find the true river life, but also a backpackers heaven.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">On the sixth day, we’ll cross the border to Cambodia heading towards the city of Kratie. On the way, we’ll visit the 100 Pillar Pagoda and the island of Koh Trung. On the seventh day, we’ll continue by boat to Phnom Penh, where we’ll spend the last three days. This is a city full of photo opportunities, and it will also be the place where we summarize the results of our photographic projects, having a final discussion and presentation.</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">BIOGRAPHY</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Born in Florence, <strong>Andrea </strong>studied  geography at the local university. He continues to live between here, a  home-place he considers not so much an urban center but a continuous  source of inspiration, and Bangkok, ideal base to cover Asia.<br />
With the evolution of his vocation to explore man and places, Andrea has  become a travel photographer specialized in geographic and social  reportage in every part of the world. Today he works on assignment for  major publications. His photographic <a href="http://www.pistolesiphoto.com/Books.html">BOOKS</a> on exotic destinations (<em>Indonesia, New Zealand, Morocco, South Africa, The Land of Buddha, Hinduism, Eastern Christianity</em>)  have been published in addition to illustrated travel books on the  major European subjects. He is the sole author of the photos in the  Bonechi Publishers US book series (35 titles) and his book on prayer in  the world&#8217;s major religions was published in 2007. A total of over 100  titles published internationally.<br />
Andrea has become especially known for his research on the use of  existing light, which he combines with a formal yet personalized  composition of his images, deeply influenced by his classical Florentine  origins. He was one of the first explorers of the digital technology:  his book “<em>Back in Town</em>”, dedicated to his first digital works, was published in 1998.<br />
He is holding workshops every year on Geographical and Digital Photography.<br />
The approach to Fine Art Photography came as a natural evolution of this  professional career. His work has been exhibited both in Italy and  abroad. He participated with a personal show at the VII Biennale di  Fotografia in Turin and won the 1998 First Award in the Italian  selection of the Fuji European Press Award.</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">_____________________________________________</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Se è vero che il fiume Mekong è la maggiore arteria e il cuore dell’Asia, un viaggio lungo lo stesso è l’impatto più forte che  possiate avere nel continente. Viaggiare sulle sue acque tra il Laos del sud e Phnnom Penh, capitale della Cambogia, è come attraversare la cultura pulsante del Sud Est Asiatico. Da Pakse a Champassak, passando per i templi Khmer (sito UNESCO) e  inoltrandosi ancora a sud alle 4000 Isole, troveremo il vero spirito del Laos, il paese che meglio rappresenta il mito della serenità  orientale.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Oltre il confine, la Cambogia: una storia completamente differente. Qui è dove i Khmer Rouge  hanno iniziato la loro rivoluzione, il luogo che ha ispirato l’epilogo di <em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Apocalypse Now</span></em>, ed è tuttora l’angolo più remoto di questa nazione divorata dalla povertà. La vita qui è al livello più semplice immaginabile, e il viaggio attraverso questa zona sarà una fortissima esperienza personale. Meta finale è Phnom Penh, la capitale che, nonostante i veloci cambiamenti, conserva ancora il suo fascino coloniale.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Anche in questo caso seguiremo la filosofia di TPW, cioè non sarà l’ennesimo tour fotografico, ma una esperienza collettiva per catturare, attraverso i nostri progetti, lo spirito del luogo. La fotografia in questo viaggio/workshop è costituita da un misto di vita quotidiana e paesaggio lungo le rive del Mekong, visto dalle piccole barche di legno che si fermano nei villaggi. A Phnom Penh la vita quotidiana è più intensa e ci saranno mille occasioni per street-photography.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Arrivando al confine con il Laos da Bangkok (un viaggio misto in aereo e auto) inizieremo il workshop da Pakse, città con un vivacissimo mercato. Da qui ci recheremo in barca a Champassak, il sito UNESCO secondo solo  per importanza a quello di Angkor. Due notti qui ci permettereano di visitare anche i villaggi e gli antichi templi lungo il fiume. Il quarto giorno, ci imbarcheremo di nuovo verso l’area delle 4000 Isole. Questo è un ambiente unico, con una forte storia coloniale e foreste di palme dove scopriremo la vita del fiume, paradiso del turismo alternativo.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Il sesto giorno attraverseremo il confine con la Cambogia, diretti alla città di Kratie. Lungo la strada, incontreremo la Pagoda dei 100 Pilastri e l’isola di Koh Trung. Infine raggiungeremo Phnom Penh, la capitale dove passeremo tre notti. La città è un paradiso fotografico, ed è anche il luogo dove faremo una critica finale del lavoro svolto e prepareremo lo slide-show collettivo.</span></p>
<h6><span style="color: #cf254e;">INFORMAZIONI PRATICHE</span></h6>
<p>Date: 21/30 Marzo 2011<br />
Location: Laos-Cambogia<br />
Visto: il visto per l’entrata in Laos è ottenibile al confine, così come quello per entrata in Cambogia<br />

Punti di incontro: ci incontreremo il 21 Marzo all’aeroporto di Ubon Ratchathani, da dove proseguiremo il viaggio ed entreremo in Laos, per arrivare a Pakse in serata. La partenza è il 30 Marzo da Phnom Penh</p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Cosa portare:<br />
è un workshop on the road, quindi portate con voi l’essenziale. Portate il vostro computer poratil con tuto quello che è connesso: cavi, batteria e carica-batteria, lettore di schede e la vostra attrezzatura fotografica. Portate un corpo extra, nel caso succeda qualcosa alla vostra macchina fotografica, cavi e caricabatteria e schede di memoria, e un hard disk esterno per fare una copia delle vostre immagini durante il  viaggio</span></p>

<h5><span style="color: #ff0000;">Mississippi 2011 &#8211; Clarksdale, Sept 10-18, 2011</span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A Journey into the Roots of Blues</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In September / October 2010 we conducted out first workshop in the Mississippi Delta.What originally started as a Journey into the place that gave birth to Blues music, turned out into a exploration of places and people who live in that area, very isolated from the touristic trail&#8230;These are some images shot during that week. We will go back in 2011 !!!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">My motto when choosing a new workshop to offer to TPW friends is “ I always offer a workshop that I would like to take myself”, and this is true for every workshop that TPW has run in all these years.<br />
This particular workshop goes beyond this motto: my passion for photography meets my passion for music, and for blues in particular. This unique workshop is addressed to photographers who love blues and want to explore the area where this music started, meet local people and musicians, drive and get lost in the Delta Landscape, rediscover your soul on the biggest river in North America and getting muddy on the mighty Mississippi river, and meet at the Crossroads…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We will be based in Clarksdale, Mississippi, the birthplace of the blues. This is where Muddy Waters lived before moving to Chicago, where musicians such as John Lee Hooker, Ike Turner, and Charlie Patton came from, where Robert Johnson met the devil at the Crossroads of Hwy 61 &amp; 49. During the week, we will explore the places nearby, meet people, visit juke joints where live music is played every night and meet the musicians and the bands…<br />
Other local friends – and I have already made a few that are all very excited to be involved in this project – will help us during this workshop and show us the real life along the Delta…. Be prepared for a very busy week, where you will discover  places that are not included in the traditional tourist tours, and you will meet people that will tell you stories of a long time ago…</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Mississippi 2011 &#8211; Clarksdale,  10/18 Settembre</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il mio motto quando scelgo un nuovo workshop da proporre per il TPW è “Voglio offrire un workshop che avrei piacere di frequentare personalmente”. E questo è stata una parola che ho mantenuto in tutti questi anni di TPW. Questo workshop in particolare va ben oltre: la mia passione per la fotografai si unisce alla mia passione per la musica e per il blues in particolare. Questo workshop, unico nel suo genere, è per i fotografi che amano il blues e vogliono esplorare l’area da cui questa musica prende le origini, incontrare gente del luogo e musicisti, guidare e perdersi nel Delta del Mississippi, riscoprire la propria anima lungo le sponde del maggior fiume americano, il Grande Mississippi. incontrarsi al Crossroads….</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il centro del nostro workshop è Clarksdale, il luogo di nascita del blues.  Qui è dove Muddy Waters viveva prima di trasferirsi a Chicago, da dove provengono musicisti come John Lee Hooker, Ike Turner, and Charlie Patton e dove di dice che il bluesman Robert Johnson abbia firmato il patto col diavolo alla Crossroad delle Highway 61&amp;49….Durante la settimana, esploreremo i luoghi nelle vicinanze, faremo amicizia con la gente del luogo, ci fermeremo nelle bettole dove si fa musica dal vivo ogni sera e incontreremo i musicisti e le loro bands….Altri amici locali &#8211; ne ho già parecchi, tutti molto curiosi e interessati a questo progetto fotografico – ci aiuteranno durante questo workshop e ci mostreranno la vera vita lungo il Delta… Aspettatevi una settimana molto piena, dove scoprirete luoghi che non fanno parte dei giri turistici, e incontrerete persone pronte a raccontarvi storie di un passato non tropo lontano…</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="width: auto; float: right;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://www.tpw.it/wp/tpw-projects-calendar/"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Go to TPW PROJECTS Calendar</span></a></span></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">TPW projects started in year 2000, when we offered our first workshop in Sicily: since then we have added new projects/workshops every year, workshops in different new locations, in Italy and abroad.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Passion &amp; Profession, Focus on Monferrato,WinePhoto Contest, In Between in Rome, TPW Light&#8230;Recently, we have added some European destination and India.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">From our Indian experience, raised the desire to move further east, and discover the fastest changing region in the world, the true core of what the globalized society will look like, torn between the contradictions of modernity and strong traditions.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We will therefore run new workshops in <span style="color: #ff0000;">Bangkok</span>, <span style="color: #ff0000;">Myanmar</span> and <span style="color: #ff0000;">India</span>. We are also offering new workshops in Europe. We are returning to Transylvania, and launching new locations: <span style="color: #ff0000;">Morocco</span>, <span style="color: #ff0000;">Istanbul</span> (Turkey) and <span style="color: #ff0000;">Ireland</span>. And after many years we are also going back to Venice.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">These travel workshops offer you the possibility to work on the field, in areas  we have selected for different reasons, mainly for the possibility to visit famous places with a different approach (Venice, Istanbul), to witness deep social changes (Transylvania) or for the strong preservation of their culture (Ireland &amp; Morocco).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Workshops dedicated to street photography, but also to travel and environmental portraits.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Choose one and join us in these wonderful adventures!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">________________________________________________</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">TPW PROJECTS è nato nel 2000 quando abbiamo lanciato i nostri primi workshop in Sicilia. Da allora, abbiamo aggiunto nuovi progetti ogni anno, in  Italia e all&#8217;estero. Da alcuni anni andiamo spesso in India : da  questa esperienza indiana, sono nati  il desiderio e la curiosità di muoverci ancora più ad Est per scoprire le regioni che si stanno evolvendo a grande velocità, l’essenza di come il mondo globalizzato sarà da qui a poco, tra le contraddizioni della modernità incalzante e le tradizioni del passato che resistono.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Saremo quindi a inizio anno a <span style="color: #ff0000;">Bangkok</span>, e in <span style="color: #ff0000;">Myanmar</span> (Birmania). In entrambi i casi con Andrea Pistolesi come guida e mentore. Andrea vive a Bangkok da alcuni anni, e si è recato in Birmania più di 20 volte nell’ ultimo decennio&#8230;.quale migliore guida per mostrarci i vari aspetti, spesso nascosti ai viaggiatori occasionali, di queste  millenarie culture? Condurremo 2 workshop in India.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Per quello che riguarda terre più vicine a noi:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Torneremo in <span style="color: #ff0000;">Transilvania</span>, per documentare i cambiamenti veloci di questa terra e di un passato che sta scomparendo troppo velocemente,  nascono adesso workshop in <span style="color: #ff0000;">Irlanda</span>, <span style="color: #ff0000;">Marocco</span> e <span style="color: #ff0000;">Istanbul</span> e riproponiamo, dopo anni di assenza, <span style="color: #ff0000;">Venezia</span>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La particolarità di questi workshop è di potere lavorare “sul campo” in zone geografico che abbiamo scelto in base ai contenuti che offrono, alla possibilità di visitare luoghi stra-noti in una luce diversa (Venezia e Istanbul), di assistere a rapidi cambiamenti sociali (Romania) o per l’attaccamento alle tradizioni (Irlanda &amp; Marocco)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Quindi, workshop legati alla street photography, ma anche alla fotografia di viaggio e  di ritratto ambientato.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sceglietene uno e unitevi a noi in questa bellissima avventura!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #e0e0e0;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> </span></span></p>

<h5><span style="color: #b5000a;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">TPW ORIENT</span></span></h5>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">In the first years of operation of TPW, we have mainly used Tuscany as  our main center. Then came Sicily (1998), and Venice, Naples Rome&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Recently, we have added some European destination and India.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">From our Indian experience, raises  now the desire to move further</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">east, and discover the fastest changing region in the world, the true core of what the globalized society will look like, torn between the contradictions of modernity and strong traditions .</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">We are launching a new project called TPW Orient, directed to all our friends who have been with us in the past years, and to new ones from  around the  world, specially from South East  Asia.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">It will not be just “another workshop in the East”, but a complete</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">program as the one we started  many years ago in Tuscany.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">The main center, for two weeks, will be Bangkok. Here we will run 3-4 workshops a week, focused on different types of photography.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">World renown photographers will be the teachers in an environment that will be an island of peace within the heart of the metropolis.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">In addition  to this, we will run two trips, one in remote Burma and one along the Mekong river, between  Laos and Cambodia.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Andrea Pistolesi, who knows the area very deeply  and  has shot there for  many international magazines, will conduct the  two trips that have the scope to escape the obvious and search for real stories .</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Other photographers will be based in Bangkok for the  other workshops.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">All the photographers involved in the project have experience about shooting in the area.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">With this project we plan to involve also photographers from the area, and have a “west meets east” in terms of creating  a good mixture of partecipants from both areas of the world, who can share their passion  for photography. Bangkok is the perfect  base for this project: easy (and affordable) to reach from every part, and then perfect base for moving in the region. A modern and efficient capital still showing a strong traditional culture. And a social melting pot that is paradise to street photography.</span></p>

<h5><span style="color: #b5000a;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">TPW ORIENT</span></span></h5>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Nei primi anni del TPW abbiamo usato principalmente la Toscana come nostro centro. Poi sono arrivati i workshop in Sicilia (1988), e Venezia, Napoli , Roma, Genova…</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Ultimamente abbiamo aggiunto alcune destinazioni Europee e India.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Da questa esperienza indiana, è nato il desiderio e la curiosità di muoverci ancora più ad Est per scoprire le regioni che si stanno evolvendo a una grande velocità, l’essenza di come il mondo globalizzato sarà da qui a poco, tra le contraddizione della modernità incalzante e le tradizioni del passato che resistono.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Lanciamo un nuovo progetto, chiamato TPW Orient, indirizzato agli studenti TPW che ci hanno seguito in questi anni, e a nuovi fotografi di tutto il mondo, specialmente del Sud Est Asiatico.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Non sarà “un altro workshop” all’Est, ma un programma articolato e completo, come quello a cui abbiamo dato vita 18 fa in Toscana.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Il centro principale, per due settimane, sarà Bangkok. Qui avranno luogo 3 workshops a settimana, dedicati a diversi aspetti della fotografia, dal fotogiornalismo alla ricerca personale.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Fotografi professionisti di fama internazionale condurranno i workshop che si svolgeranno nel centro della città.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Oltre a questo workshop “residenziale” , completeremo il progetto con due workshop in viaggio: il primo nel cuore del Myanmar (Birmania) e l’altro passando da Laos a Cambogia lungo il fiume Mekong.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Andrea Pistolesi, che conosce l’area profondamente (vive in Asia  metà anno) e ha realizzato in queste zone molti reportage, condurrà i due workshop/viaggi.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Tutti i fotografi coinvolti in questo progetto hanno fotografato a lungo in questa zona.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Con questo progetto vogliamo anche coinvolgere fotografi locali, e creare una sorta di “l’occidente incontra l’oriente” fotografico, con una forte combinazione di elementi da entrambe le culture.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #c1c1c1;">Bangkok è il centro ideale  per questo progetto: facile da raggiungere da qualsiasi parte del mondo, e il luogo perfetto da cui partire per scoprire la regione. Una metropoli  moderna e efficiente, che ancora mostra una forte cultura tradizionale. Un paradiso per la <em>street photography.</em></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">TPW Gallery, is a way to keep in touch with our TPW students. Every month we will propose a project  of an ex-student, in order to closely observe his/her work, and to know how his/her commitment with photography is going, to get news about what has happened after the TPW experience…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The students&#8217; portfolios will stay on-line for one year, so in the future it will be possible to view both current and previous portfolios.<br />
We are interested in your opinions: write your point of view about the on-line-show at <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://info@tpw.it" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">info@tpw.it</span></a></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">___________________________________________________________</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La Gallery del Toscana Photographic Workshop è un modo per continuare a tenerci in contatto con gli studenti del TPW. Ogni mese, proporremo il lavoro di un ex &#8211; studente, per osservare da vicino il suo lavoro, e sapere come sta proseguendo il suo impegno nella fotografia, conoscere quello che è successo dopo il TPW…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I portfolio degli studenti rimarranno on-line per un anno, quindi sarà possibile, in futuro, visionare sia il portfolio corrente che quelli precedenti.<br />
Siamo interessati alla vostra opinione: scriveteci con il vostro parere sulla mostra on line a <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://info@tpw.it" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">info@tpw.it</span></a></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Photography could not exist without light. This workshop will make you know-understand-dominate light in photography. Outdoor with natural light, indoor inventing one’s own light, we will mix natural light and artificial light or the opposite, and we will make up new ways to lighten a scene.<br />
For a portrait, a nude, a still-life an architectural shot alike, the light will be the reading point of our Tuscany workshop.<br />
We will shoot photographs both outdoor and in a photo studio equipped with professional flash lights, hot- light, softboxes, projectors, ring lights; we will use all type of formats from the 20&#215;36 to the large format, also using Imacon digital back. Students will have the chance to produce a photographic project and apply the lightning techniques learned during the week.<br />
This workshop is not only a technical one, they will also learn how to use the photographic light in a creative way, in order to make one’s image personal and interesting.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Claudio Amadei</span></strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> has worked as a photographer since 1984. He mostly produces still life images destined for commercial publications. In 1995 he published his first book In Deep. In 1996 he discovered the HOLGA camera. In the year 2000 he shot a great Italian event, the famous race of vintage cars (Mille Miglia) through the lens of a HOLGA, publishing E’ Corsa, which is presented by Grazia Neri and Maurizio Rebuzzini. Amadei had a show called HOLGA Mon Amour. He published Carte du Ciel, in collaboration with RT Arte. He has just published a new book, Romagna.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Senza luce non ci può essere la fotografia. Questo workshop vi farà conoscere-comprendere-dominare la luce in fotografia.<br />
In esterno con luce naturale, in studio inventando la propria luce: mescoleremo la luce naturale a quella artificiale o il contrario e inventeremo nuovi modi di illuminare una scena. Sia che si tratti di un ritratto un nudo, uno still-life o un&#8217;architettura, la luce sarà la chiave di lettura del nostro lavoro in Toscana.<br />
Scatteremo fotografie sia in esterno che in uno studio fotografico attrezzato con flash professionali, luce continua, bank, proiettori, ring-lights, utilizzeremo tutti i formati fotografici dal 20&#215;36 al banco ottico e un dorso digitale Imacon.<br />
I partecipanti avranno la possibilità di ideare e realizzare un progetto fotografico in cui applicare le tecniche di illuminazione imparate. Questo workshop non è solo tecnico ma vi in segnerà ad utilizzare in maniera creativa la luce fotografica in modo da rendere personali ed emozionanti le proprie immagini.</span></span></span></p>

<h5><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Tuscany 2010 &#8211; Anghiari, June 20-26</span></span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">This workshop is dedicated to those who are approaching digital photography for the first time and want to start on “the right foot”, and also to those who already work in digital and would like to have a more complete vision of the possibilities offered by this medium.<br />
The workshop will be distributed equally between a theoretical approach and a practical, hands-on side, where students will have the possibility to shoot images that will be later re-worked in the digital lab. In this way, you will always have new files to work on and you will also have the possibility to produce images of the landscape, countryside, and villages. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Topics: Basic notions of photography in general<br />
Analogic and Digital photography<br />
Basics on digital imaging<br />
How a digital camera works &#8211; Camera Settings<br />
The Digital darkroom<br />
Importing and adjusting digital images<br />
Working on Images using Adobe Photoshop Elements<br />
Storage and archival procedures for digital images<br />
Sharing, publishing and printing<br />
Images for Social Networks</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Giuseppe Andretta has been working in photographic techniques since 1980. He started working entirely with digital in 1996, and is now recognized as ACI (Adobe Certified Instructor).<br />
He works for Apple, Adobe, X-Rite, Nikon, and Wacom e Hasselblad as a consultant.  He was the X-Rite European Testimonial in 2009.  He publishes a blog on news in digital photography and writes for Applicando and Italia Grafica.  He teaches workshops in schools, colleges, and photographic centers all over Italy. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">___________________________________________________________</span></p>
<h5><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Tuscany 2010 &#8211; Anghiari, 20-26 Giugno<br />
</span></span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Questo corso è dedicato a chi si avvicina alla fotografia digitale per la prima volta e vuole partire con “il piede giusto”, e anche a chi già lavora in digitale e vuole avere una visione più completa delle possibilità offerte da questo mezzo. Il workshop sarà equamente distribuito tra una parte teorica,e una pratica nella quale si potranno scattare le immagini che saranno poi soggetto della elaborazione in laboratorio.<br />
In questo modo si lavorerà sempre su files nuovi, appena scattati tenendo conto delle esigenze del digitale.<br />
Photoshop Elements è uno strumento di facile comprensione, che permetterà a tutti di lavorare le proprie immagini e prepararle per la condivisione.<br />
</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Nel corso del workshop saranno affrontati I seguenti temi: </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Concetti di base delle fotografia in generale<br />
Differenze tra fotografia analogica e digitale<br />
Nozioni di base sull&#8217;immagine digitale<br />
Come funziona una fotocamera digitale e impostazioni<br />
La camera oscura digitale<br />
Scaricare e manipolare le immagini digitali<br />
Elaborare le immagini con Adobe Photoshop Elements<br />
Conservare e archiviare le immagini digitali<br />
Condivisione, pubblicazione e social networking per fotografi<br />
Oltre, naturalmente , a concetti generale su estetica e composizione.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Giuseppe Andretta si occupa di fotografia e tecniche fotografiche dagli anni &#8216;80. Si è dedicato completamente al digital imaging nel 1996 e, dopo anni di studio ed esperienza, viene riconosciuto da Adobe, come uno degli istruttori italiani in Photoshop (ACI, Adobe Certified Instructor).<br />
Collabora, come consulente esterno, con aziende come Apple, Adobe, X-Rite, Nikon, Wacom e Hasselblad. Essendo esperto di gestione digitale del colore, X-Rite lo ha riconosciuto, nel 2009, come testimonial europeo.<br />
Da anni tiene un blog aggiornato sulle principali novità della fotografia digitale. Scrive anche articoli per riviste specializzate come Applicando e Italia Grafica. Ha insegnato, prestato consulenze e tenuto seminari, in tutta Italia, nelle principali scuole, centri di fotografia e manifestazioni/workshop fotografici italiani.</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Sicily 2012 •  June  9-16</span></span></h6>
<p>In 2012 we will offer two workshops with Settimio Benedusi</p>
<p>This one, in Sicily, on <strong>HOW</strong> to shoot a professional beauty assignment</p>
<p>The second, in Tuscany, on <strong>WHY</strong> take photographs</p>
<p>Two different paths, with different goals but both born with same idea: to help you become a better photographer, from a technical and aesthetic point of view.</p>
<p>“This is not a traditional workshop: it will be an assignment, a challenge“.</p>
<p>This will be a technical workshop, to teach you how to photograph and to get the same results as Settimio on Sports Illustrated and Sportweek Dreams photo-sessions.</p>
<p>You will learn how to work with models, how to photograph them using the right light, location, make-up and with the correct use of post-production…</p>
<p>The final goal of this workshop is to provide all the all technical information and the tools you need on a photo session in order to finalize an assignment for a specific client.</p>
<p>We will work with a team: models, make-up artist, hair-stylist, assistants…using the wonderful light and locations of South Sicily, we will be able to create the right atmosphere for your shoot.</p>
<p>The workshop is for photographers who want to specialize in portrait, body and fashion adding a particular and personal touch.</p>
<p>Every participant with work individually with the model(s). There will never be a situation with more that one student shooting at the same time. Settimio will spend time individually with each student, first to plan the shooting, and then to actually do it.</p>
<p>This workshop requires a good knowledge of computer skills (such as editing software, use of Photoshop etc) so that you will be able to concentrate more on the shooting</p>

<p>BIOGRAPHY</p>
<p><strong>Settimio Benedusi </strong>was born in Italy forty-six years ago. Now he lives in Milan where he also runs his photographic studio.<br />
He had his first camera when he was 12 years old and from that moment he was just thinking about taking the perfect picture, using beauty, emotions and feeling.<br />
He is a professional photographer for 20 years now and travelled all over the world, working for many magazines (GQ, Max, Vogue, Cosmo, Marie Claire, Sports Illustrated and Elle…) and so many clients (Versace, Fila, Armani and Swatch…).<br />
Settimio is a beauty hunter, he looks at the subject and shoots – ‘that’s the only way for fixing moments that otherwise would be gone like tears in the rain’<br />
He also likes to write about photography on his blog (<a href="http://www.benedusi.it/blog">http://www.benedusi.it/blog</a>) and on the “Corriere della Sera”, the major Italian newspaper, web site (<a href="http://photobackstage.corriere.it/">http://photobackstage.corriere.it/</a>).</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Sicilia  2012 •  9-16  Giugno</span></span></h6>
<p><span style="color: #bcbcbc;">Nel 2012 sono proposti due workshop di Settimio Benedusi.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #bcbcbc;">Il primo, in Sicilia, sul <strong>COME</strong> si realizza un servizio fotografico professionale.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #bcbcbc;">Il secondo, in Toscana, sul <strong>PERCHE’</strong> si fotografa.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #bcbcbc;">Due diversi percorsi con finalità e intenti molto diversi tra loro ma entrambi nati con il medesimo desiderio di migliorare in maniera pratica e concreta la qualità dei progetti fotografici dei partecipanti.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #bcbcbc;">“Ciò che andremo a fare non sarà un workshop tradizionale, ne’sarà un allenamento o una simulazione: sarà un assignment, una sfida, una realtà”</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #bcbcbc;">Sarà quindi un corso estremamente tecnico, per cercare di insegnare come fotografare per raggiungere i risultati ottenuti da Benedusi sui set di Sports Illustrated e Sportweek Dreams: come quindi far apparire sensuale ed accattivante il corpo di una modella, attraverso l’uso della tecnica, delle luci, delle location, del trucco/capelli, della postproduzione…insomma di tutto quanto viene normalmente usato sul set di un vero, reale e concreto servizio fotografico per un cliente. Il fine ultimo e concreto di questo workshop è fornire ai partecipanti le precise conoscenze tecniche per raggiungere i risultati dei miei lavori realizzati per riviste e cataloghi.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #bcbcbc;">Nel corso del workshop avremo un team a nostra disposizione: modelle, truccatori e hair stylist, assistenti…usando le affascinanti location della Sicilia Sud-Orientale, saremo in grado di creare l’atmosfera ideale per uno shooting.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #bcbcbc;">Il percorso è rivolto soprattutto a chi vuole imparare a realizzare dei servizi fotografici che vadano al di là della semplice piacevolezza estetica, che vadano al di là della semplice “bella” fotografia, che vadano al di là della giusta e corretta esposizione…ma che invece arrivino a raccontare la nostra, e della modella, verità.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #bcbcbc;">Lo scopo di ogni partecipante del workshop sarà arrivare all’ultimo giorno con una propria storia realizzata. Come se fosse un vero e proprio lavoro. Per raggiungere questo risultato prima, insieme a Settimio, si penserà esattamente cosa fare e perché, poi ogni partecipante fotograferà, da solo (assistito da Settimio e dagli altri fotografi) e in piena autonomia, la modella. NON ci saranno quindi mai e poi mai le situazioni con la modella fotografata da venti persone.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #bcbcbc;">Il workshop è riservato a fotografi con già consolidate basi tecniche, affinché le lezioni possano focalizzarsi sullo stile e sulla qualità.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #bcbcbc;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><strong>Settimio Benedusi </strong>è nato in Italia quarantasei anni fa. Ora vive a Milano, dove si trova anche il suo studio fotografico.<br />
La sua prima macchina fotografica gli viene regalata all’età di 12 anni e da quel momento il suo obiettivo è fare la foto ‘perfetta’ cercando di usare la bellezza e le emozioni. Settimio è un fotografo professionista da oltre 20 anni, ha viaggiato in tutto il mondo scattando per tante riviste (GQ, Max, Vogue, Cosmo, Marie Claire, Sports Illustrated ed Elle…) e per innumerevoli clienti di pubblicità (Versace, Fila, Armani, Swatch…) Settimio insegue la bellezza, sempre. Inquadra il soggetto e scatta “questo è l’unico modo per immortalare i  momenti che altrimenti verrebbero persi come lacrime nella pioggia”. Settimio inoltre scrive di fotografia sul suo blog  e sul sito del “Corriere della Sera”, il più importante quotidiano italiano.<span style="color: #ff0000;"> </span></span></span></p>

Well, there our participants learn how to improve their vision, in a wonderful setting , far from the madding crowd…But very often they ask us to go to places where they can apply what they have learned at TPW…can you imagine anything more at the extremis as a quiet valley of Tuscany and the crowded traffic of Kolkata or Naples? Jump from daily life of a village with 300 people, to a city with over 15 millions? How to compare the silence of the Monastery and the villages around it, to the villages of Transylvania? And it is also a good way to travel, discover new place,  with the company of other who share the same passion, under the guidance of an expert photographer and our staff…</span></span></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #b5000a;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Abbiamo iniziato i workshop fuori dalla Toscana nel 2000, con il nostro primo viaggio in Sicilia. Da allora, abbiamo aggiunto ogni anno nuove location. Roma, Venezia, Napoli, Genova.. e più recentemente, India, Transilvania, Istanbul, e dal prossimo autunno lanceremo anche il nostro primo workshop negli USA, nel Mississippi, alla ricerca delle radici della musica blues…<br />
Perché uscire dalla Toscana? Lì i partecipanti ai nostri corsi imparano a migliorare la loro vision, in un ambiente meraviglioso, lontani dalla folla impazzita….Ma spesso ci chiedono di andare in luoghi dove possono applicare sul campo quello che hanno imparato al TPW…potete immaginare niente di più agli estremi che  di una vallata della Toscana al traffico intenso di Kolkata? Passare da un paese di 300 abitanti a una città di 15 milioni? Come paragonare il silenzio del Monastero ai villaggi della Transilvania o ai venditori di Istanbul?<br />
E poi è un buon modo di viaggiare, scoprire nuovi luoghi in compagnia di persone che condividono la nostra passione e sotto la guida di un esperto fotografo.</span></span></span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • July 28 &#8211; Aug 03</span><br />
</span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Tuscany and central Italy, places of great beauty, have become over photographed, and everyone now recognizes its symbols of cypress tree, sunflowers, olives, and hilltop towns. How do you photograph this cliché ridden area in a new way? How do you see through the compendium of Italian images to find your own unique vision? Finally, how do you represent a a specific life-style by photographing its landscape?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In this course each student will take on a mini- project dealing with some aspect of landscape and/or culture, the goal is ” what do you want to say and how do you want to say it “. On the first day of class we will spend the morning looking at a brief sampling of everyone’s previous work and after lunch we will head immediately “into the field” to start photographing. Class will consist of field trips and critiques – lots of looking at each others work in addition to the work of other contemporary photographers. This class is open to anyone who has a good working knowledge of their camera and basic photo techniques – the emphasis will be on content and vision, not technique.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As a photographer who has spent time over many many years, photographing in this area, I have a great knowledge of the surroundings to share with the class and I am always trying to solve the same problem – how to photograph the light and heat and beauty and culture in a way that it surprising. In this class we will work with many different subject matter ; the class is not only about the landscape, but about everything the landscape contains, so students interested in making portraits, still-lives images, or any kind of image, are welcome. Our goal is to photograph the life around us in a unique way.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer workshop  •  22 &#8211; 28 Luglio</span></span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La Toscana, luogo di grande bellezza, è stata fotografata all’eccesso, e tutti riconoscono i suoi simboli: cipressi, girasoli, oliveti e paesi in cima ai poggi…Come fotografare questa terra piena di cliché in un modo nuovo? Come trovare la tua visione personale tra le tante immagini?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">E infine,  come fotografare uno stile di vita attraverso il paesaggio?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Durante questo corso ogni studente lavorerà su un progetto che ha che fare con il paesaggio e/o la cultura toscana: l’obiettivo è “dire quello che vuoi nel modo che vuoi”.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il primo giorno dedicheremo la mattinata a vedere i lavori degli studenti e nel pomeriggio “andremo alla meta” per iniziare a fotografare.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il workshop consiste in riprese sul campo e di critica con uno sguardo costante al lavoro di tutti e di fotografi contemporanei. Il workshop è per chiunque abbia una buona conoscenza della propria attrezzatura e tecnica di ripresa – sarà incentrato sulla visione fotografica e non sulla tecnica.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Come fotografa che ha passato molti anni in questa area, ho una grande conoscenza dei dintorni, e condividerò con gli studenti i miei luoghi segreti… cerco anch’io di risolvere lo stesso problema: come fotografare la luce, il calore e la bellezza e cultura della Toscana in un modo originale e sorprendente. Lavoreremo con molti soggetti: non solo con il paesaggio, ma con tutto quello che contiene. Quindi, se siete interessati a fare ritratti, still-life o altri tipi di immagini, siete i benvenuti. Vogliamo fotografare la vita che ci circonda in un modo unico.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • July 28 &#8211; Aug 03</span></h6>
<p><span style="font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal;">What makes a creative work individual, unique, stylized and personal?  What makes a photograph reflect deeper meanings than the surface of the print?  What separates the great image-makers from the average?  What is in an image that makes that image have a life of it’s own?</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I believe what makes an image have a life of it&#8217;s own is when it shares a personal point of view.  I believe that each person has a personal history, a personal point of view, and a unique life story.  Successful creators have tapped into that personal view from within one’s own life story.   They have found a way to shape the multifaceted world of their own mind into the two- dimensional world of a photo print.  These successful creators are not afraid to have a point of view of the world and they have chosen to share that point of view in the photograph.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This workshop is about freeing one’s personal creative spirit from an internal feeling to the printed page.  It is about living more creatively through personal expression as well as about learning to be present in every aspect of life.  It is also about discovering, and unlocking one’s personal mysteries of the mind and heart.  Furthermore, this workshop is about having a clear opinion and learning to express that opinion in a photograph.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">While working with the local Tuscan people, this workshop will help us to learn to express our personal history in the photographic portrait.   Through lectures, critiques, demonstrations and assignments,we will learn to reflect our emotions, feelings, dreams, desire, and our own personal mysteries in our photography.  We will learn to take a portrait of someone else, and create the image of that person as a portrait of ourselves. We will learn to free the endless list of creative ideas housed in our own minds, and place them in our work.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This is a workshop about possibilities and it will give the power and magic of photography to the creator.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><span style="color: #ff0000;">Additional Note for Students:</span></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This workshop will give you ample time for personal critiques as well as the class critiques.   Daily I will have visual presentations, discussions and give demonstrations as needed.   Several inspirational presentations reveal many diverse ideas and concepts that help you to realize your potential.  In addition to the time spent with our class as a whole, I have found that the atmosphere of TPW allows for personal attention during the meals as well as during image making time.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I encourage students to work on daily assignments both as an individual and in teams.  We will also do some group trips for shooting if it is desired.   The group trips make me available for one on one time during the actual shooting experience while enjoying another Tuscan town.   This time can lead to insightful moments that often unlock creative roadblocks, and free the image-maker to move forward to create more dynamic work.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I feel strongly that you should travel with the cameras and equipment that you are most comfortable with.  Besides your cameras, you must bring a laptop along with its required cables and software that came with your camera, a card reader, and sufficient flash memory cards.   You must have a working knowledge of the use of all your equipment and of your editing and processing software.  You will be editing your images on your laptop each day after your shoot.  Edited images will be transferred to the “classroom workstation” and projected with an LCD projector for the class critiques.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">One thing to note is that we will only review digital work using Adobe Lightroom or Bridge in Photoshop.  Each day I will help you to edit your images before critiques. Thus it is imperative to have Lightroom or Photoshop and Bridge on your laptop and be familiar with all aspects of how it works</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you have any questions, please contact me via e-mail at <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="mailto:paul@paulelledge.com"><span style="color: #ff0000;">paul@paulelledge.com</span></a></span>. I look forward to meeting you and spending time with you in Tuscany!</p>

He has been honored with numerous national and international awards for work that melds photographic realism with painterly qualities of illustration.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Paul has photographed many celebrities including AC/DC, Ashanti, Billy Corgan, Ministry, Willie Nelson, Trent Reznor, Luciano Pavarotti, and Oprah Winfrey. His work has appeared throughout the world in such publications as Audubon, Fast Company, Life, Men’s Health, People, Rolling Stone, Time and Wired to name just a few.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As well as his published book Luna Bella Luna that is the chronicling the people of Vesale, Italy, Paul has also worked on several published book projects with Chef Charlie Trotter. In addition to photography, he has directed several music videos and television commercials. Paul has been teaching at TPW since the year 2000.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Workshop Estivi 2013 • 28 Luglio &#8211; 03 Agosto</span></h6>
<p><span style="text-align: justify; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal;">Che cos’è che rende un lavoro creativo individuale, unico, personale e pieno di stile? Che cos’è che fa sì che una fotografia rifletta non solo la superficie della stampa ma anche un significato più profondo? Che cosa ci rende grandi fotografi? Cosa dà ad una certa immagine una vita propria?</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Credo che un’immagine abbia una vita propria quando riesce a trasmettere un punto di vista personale. Credo che ogni persona abbia un proprio passato, un proprio punto di vista, e una storia assolutamente unica.Gli artisti affermati riescono a sfruttare appieno questa capacità di visone che deriva dal loro  vissuto . Trovano il modo di  dare una forma bidimensionale – la fotografia &#8211; al mondo sfaccettato che li circonda e che percepiscono nella loro mente. Non hanno paura di avere un’opinione sul mondo e di aver scelto di esprimerla con la fotografia. Questo workshop vi porterà a liberare il vostro spirito creativo: dai vostri sentimenti più interiori alla stampa fotografica. Vi porterà a vivere in modo più creativo attraverso la vostra capacità espressiva e imparando ad essere attenti ad ogni aspetto della vita. Scopriremo e sbloccheremo i vostri più intimi misteri, nel cuore e nella mente. Ma soprattutto, con questo workshop imparerete ad avere le idee chiare e ad esprimerle con la fotografia.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Lavoreremo con gli abitanti locali, imparando ad esprimere la nostra storia personale in un ritratto fotografico. La classe sarà impegnata in lectures, critiche quotidiane, dimostrazioni e incarichi, attraverso i quali impareremo a far fluire le nostre emozioni, sentimenti, sogni, desideri e i nostri segreti in una fotografia. Impareremo a fare un ritratto di qualcun altro come se costruissimo l’immagine su noi stessi, liberando l’infinita gamma di idee che abitano la nostra mente e a riporle nel lavoro.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Questo è un workshop sulle possibilità e libererà il potere e la magia della fotografia.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><br />
</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><span style="color: #ff0000;">Nota per gli studenti:</span></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Durante il workhop dedicheremo molto tempo alla critica personale così come alle discussioni in classe. Ogni giorno vi presenterò dei lavori cercando di darvi tutte le dimostrazioni necessarie. Alcune presentazioni ispirate rivelano così tanti  diversi pensieri e  idee che vi aiuteranno a realizzare il vostro potenziale. In più oltre al tempo trascorso con la classe, ho scoperto che l’atmosfera del TPW ispira e rende attenti anche durante i pasti e nei momenti in cui si esce per scattare. Incoraggerò gli studenti a lavorare su progetti ogni giorno, sia in modo individuale che in gruppo. Se la classe lo desidererà, potremo anche fare delle escursioni tutti assieme: questo mi permetterà di lavorare fianco a fianco di ciascuno di voi, mentre potremo godere della visita a altri paesi della Toscana. Ritengo che questi momenti siano molto significativi e che possano spingere  l’artista che c’è in voi a creare lavori più dinamici.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The prerequisite for this workshop will be a well-conceived photographic project which is currently in process with about 50% of the images realized, to which the student is committed, and where the student will benefit from work on editing, sequencing and contextualizing&#8211;in terms of text and other concerns&#8211; his or her photographs.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Each student must be prepared to present this project the first day of the workshop, preferably as prints. Students must also be prepared to speak openly, critically and kindly about each others&#8217; work.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">At the same time, in order to refine their editing, sequencing and contextualizing skills, “exercises” exploring the relationship between text and image, and considering context, will be given on a daily basis which will require the students to both photograph and to write. The point and challenge will be to discern what is best told in words, and what is best rendered visually. When should words and images “coexist”? When should they illustrate each other? When should there be a tension between the two, and how shall that tension be exploited? At the same time, we will consider how images impose readings on each other depending upon sequence and juxtapositions.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Students will present their responses to these exercises on a daily basis, each morning, for a class crit. At the same time, we will also continue to work on their larger projects throughout the week. They will have the afternoons to work on both the exercises, and to keep refining their larger projects.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Melissa Harris is Editor-in-Chief of Aperture magazine and editor/curator, selected projects. She teaches at NYU in the Photo and Imaging department at Tisch and at Columbia Journalism School.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Il requisito per la partecipazione a questo workshop è di avere un progetto fotografico ben concepito e già in stato avanzato, con il 50% circa di immagini realizzate, al quale lo studente potrà lavorare direttamente nelle tre fasi di scelta, ordinamento e contestualizzazione, eanche in termini di testo e di altri fattori.<br />
Ogni studente dovrà presentare il proprio progetto al primo giorno di workshop, preferibilmente con delle stampe. Gli studenti, dovranno inoltre sentirsi pronti a esprimere le proprie opinioni apertamente e con spirito critico sul lavoro degli altri partecipanti.<br />
Durante il corso, nella prospettiva di migliorare le proprie capacità di scelta, ordinamento e contestualizzazione, verranno assegnati agli studenti esercizi giornalieri per approfondire la connessione tra i testi e le immagini. L’obiettivo e la sfida saranno quelle di distinguere quando è meglio esprimersi con le parole e quando è meglio farlo attraverso l’immagine.<br />
In che momenti fotografie e parole dovrebbero coesistere? In che modo possono illustrare le une i significati delle altre? Quando dovrebbe instaurarsi un rapporto di tensione tra le due e in che modo questa tensione dovrebbe essere sfruttata?<br />
Allo stesso tempo si prenderà in esame come alcuni immagini risultino più forti di altre a seconda della sequenza e delle giustapposizioni.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Gli studenti presenteranno i risultati degli esercizi assegnati ogni mattina per una critica di gruppo.<br />
Si continuerà, inoltre, a lavorare sui loro progetti durante tutta la settimana. I pomeriggi saranno dedicati sia alle esercitazioni, che alla continuazione del progetto personale.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Melissa Harris è caporedattore di Aperture magazine e curatrice per i progetti selezionati.<br />
Insegna al dipartimento di “Photo and Imaging” del Tisch presso l’Università di New York (NYU) e alla scuola di giornalismo della Columbia.</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #870f0f;"> </span><span style="color: #ae1122"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Tuscany 2011 •  July 24/30<br />
</span></span></h6>
<p align="justify">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">This workshop will be about photographing a precise area, interpreting, with our photographs, the essence of a place and its people.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">We will move from village to village, between Val di Chiana and Val d’Orcia, stopping at cafés, gas stations, farms, spas, getting to know the people who live there, listening to their talks and photographing their daily life.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Every day we will meet for group critique as well as one-to-one meetings&#8230;and then…on the road again, at different times of the day, to capture the light and the spirit of the place. At the end of the week, students will have a portfolio with fresh images of the Tuscan Way of Life.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">“Photography is not about buying the right lens, nor is it about knowing the right people. It is far more challenging than that. It is about looking at oneself in the mirror sometimes and looking out of the window some other time. Simplicity is always the most difficult thing to achieve. People tend to make things complicated in a way that wastes energy. Energy, flowing naturally, makes for the best art and daily life”</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">This class is for advanced photographers who want to learn on an extended essay or for a magazine or  a personal book project.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">David Alan Harvey&#8217;s work deals with the magic of everyday life. A member of Magnum, he has travelled the world shooting more than 30 essays for National Geographic. His ongoing work in the Spanish-speaking world recently brought him to Cuba. The result of these six months photographing this island spread out over a three year period lead to the publishing of several magazine articles as well as &#8220;Cuba&#8221;, a book that is a moving and intimate portrait of Cuba and its people. A show on Cuba was shown at Visa pour l&#8217;Image Festival in Perpignan, as well as in Miami, Havana and New York, and is currently touring the U.S. and Europe. Harvey is currently at work on two new stories for the National Geographic Magazine.</span></p>

</span></span></h6>
<p><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Questo Workshop vi porterà a fotografare in una zona precisa , interpretando,  con le vostre foto, l&#8217;essenza  di un posto e dei suoi abitanti.Ci spostertemo di paese in paese, tra la Val di Chiana e la Val d&#8217;Orcia, fermandoci ai caffè, alle stazioni di benzina, nelle fattorie e nelle stazioni termali, nei locali notturni, cercando di conoscere le persone che vi abitano e lavorano, ascoltando le loro storie e fotografando la loro vita quotidiana.Ogni giorno ci incontreremo per la critica sia come gruppo che individualmente.  e poi.. di nuovo on the road, a diverse ore del giorno, per catturare la luce e l&#8217;atmosfera dei posti. Alla fine della settimana, gli studenti avranno a disposizione un portfolio con immagini nuove della vita in Toscana.&#8221;Fotografare non è comprare l&#8217; obbiettivo giusto, neppure conoscere le persone giuste. E&#8217; una sfida molto più importante. A volte si tratta di guardarsi allo specchio, altre volte d i guardare fuori dalla finestra. La semplicità è sempre la  cosa più difficile da raggiungere. Spesso tendiamo  a rendere le cose complicate e sprechiamo energia. Ma l&#8217;energia, che  scorre naturalmente, trasforma al meglio l&#8217;arte e la vita di tutti i giorni.&#8221;Questa classe è per fotografi di livello avanzato, che vogliono imparare a lavorare su un servizio fotografico per una rivista o per un progetto  personale di libro.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Il lavoro di David Alan Harvey ha a che fare con la magia della vita di tutti i giorni. Membro della Magnum, ha viaggiato in tutto il mondo creando più di trenta composizioni fotografiche per il National Geographic. Il suo più recente lavoro incentrato sul mondo della lingua spagnola è a Cuba. I risultati di sei mesi di lavoro su quest’isola, sono le svariate pubblicazioni di articoli su riviste internazionali, e la pubblicazione di Cuba, un libro che è un commovente ed intimo ritratto di Cuba e della sua gente. Una mostra su Cuba è stata esposta al Visa pour L’image Festival di Perpignan, come anche a Miami, in Havana e New York; la stessa mostra sta inoltre viaggiando tra USA ed Europa. Harvey è al momento sta lavorando a due nuovi progetti per il National Geographic Magazine.</span></p>

<h5><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Mississippi 2010 &#8211; Clarksdale, Sept 24-Oct 2</span></span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">My motto when choosing a new workshop to offer to TPW friends is “ I always offer a workshop that I would like to take myself”, and this is true for every workshop that TPW has run in all these years.<br />
This particular workshop goes beyond this motto: my passion for photography meets my passion for music, and for blues in particular. This unique workshop is addressed to photographers who love blues and want to explore the area where this music started, meet local people and musicians, drive and get lost in the Delta Landscape, rediscover your soul on the biggest river in North America and getting muddy on the mighty Mississippi river, and meet at the Crossroads…<br />
Rex Miller, who published “the book” on Blues in the late 90’s, “All the Blues Gone”, will be the teacher, conductor, maestro of this workshop. What better leader? (see below)<br />
We will be based in Clarksdale, Mississippi, the birthplace of the blues.<br />
This is where Muddy Waters lived before moving to Chicago, where musicians such as John Lee Hooker, Ike Turner, and Charlie Patton came from, where Robert Johnson met the devil at the Crossroads of Hwy 61 &amp; 49.<br />
During the week, we will explore the places nearby, meet people, visit juke joints where live music is played every night and meet the musicians and the bands…<br />
Other local friends – and I have already made a few that are all very excited to be involved in this project – will help us during this workshop and show us the real life along the Delta….<br />
Be prepared for a very busy week, where you will discover  places that are not included in the traditional tourist tours, and you will meet people that will tell you stories of a long time ago…</span></span></span></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">All the Blues Gone</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">By Rex Miller</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The delta of the Mississippi river is the origin of traditional blues : harmonicas, guitar and voices that cry of sorrow and tribulation. Yet as the river flows relentlessly south, the blues and its musicians have moved north and beyond, creating such tributaries as Chicago Blues, Rock and Roll, Jazz and Rap. All the Blues Gone return to the source, giving the world a treasured musical legacy from the soul of African-American culture.<br />
In the tradition of the great folklorist Alan Lomax, photographer Rex Miller has worked years in Mississippi, building an intimate picture of Delta Musicians, their lives shaped by generations of farm work, from slavery to through sharecropping through the inner-city problems that have now come to rural Mississippi.<br />
All the Blues Gone is not a catalogue of musical history. It is a glimpse into the culture and traditions that created this music, as seen through the lives of some of its practitioners.  Miller’s dramatic photographs honour the vitality of DELTA life…the cotton fields where blues began as hollers and chants; the porches where blues deepened in the cool of evenings; he juke joints where blues wail until morning; the infamous Parchman Penitentiary where blues live in fear and loneliness.<br />
Here are the men and women who have local fame and national obscurity: John Hurt,Jr., son of Mississippi John Hurt: Roosevelt “Booba” Barnes, James “Son” Thomas and Ms.Z.L.Hill, Delta legends who have recently passed away. All the Blues Gone is part of a multimedia exhibition that has toured galleries, museums, universities, festivals and performance spaces nationally and overseas. </span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The exhibition is comprised of:<br />
photographic murals (framed in wood from sharecropper’s shack)<br />
a DVD soundtrack of music and storytelling<br />
an installation of projected images w/soundtrack<br />
educational programming<br />

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><strong>Biography</strong><br />
Rex Miller was born and raised in New York City, where he started commuting to school from Astoria, Queens to Manhattan on the subway at age 8, which he&#8217;s sure honed his love of observing human nature, not to mention danger and adventure.<br />
A documentary and editorial photographer for the past 25 years, his clients have included ABC News, American Express, Atlantic Records, Calvin Klein, CBS, Forbes, John Kennedy, Jr., McDonald&#8217;s, Musician, Newsweek, New York Magazine, The New York Times, Nickelodeon, the Robin Hood Foundation, Rolling Stone, Spin, Sony Music, and Time.<br />
In 1997 Miller completed &#8220;All The Blues Gone&#8221;, a hardcover book/CD package documenting Mississippi blues culture. &#8220;All The Blues Gone&#8221; has been widely exhibited in the U.S. and overseas.<br />
In 2004, Miller completed directing and producing the Documentary Short film (30 mins), I&#8217;M WALKIN&#8217;: A Journey Through Parchman. The film chronicles the 10-year incarceration of Mitchell Pendelton, a Chicago-born blues musician, at Mississippi&#8217;s infamous Parchman Penitentiary, a former plantation for runaway slaves.<br />
His documentary feature film, &#8220;SOMAY KU: A Uganda Tennis Story&#8221;, premiered on The Tennis Channel in November 2008. It was awarded &#8220;Best Documentary&#8221; at the Malibu Film Festival (2008)<br />

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Il mio motto quando scelgo un nuovo workshop da proporre per il TPW è   “Voglio offrire un workshop che avrei piacere di frequentare personalmente”. E questo è stata una parola che ho mantenuto in tutti questi anni di TPW<br />
Questo workshop in particolare va ben oltre: la mia passione per la fotografai si unisce alla mia passione  per la musica e per il blues in particolare.<br />
Questo workshop, unico nel suo genere, è per i fotografi che amano il blues e vogliono esplorare l’area da cui questa musica prende le origini, incontrare gente  del luogo e musicisti, guidare e perdersi nel Delta del Mississippi, riscoprire la propria  anima lungo le sponde del maggior fiume americano, il Grande Mississippi. incontrarsi al Crossroads….<br />
Rex Miller, che ha pubblicato All The Blues Gone, IL libro sul blues, sarà il nostro insegnante, conduttore d’orchestra, maestro di questo workshop. Quale persona è più indicata di lui?<br />
(vedi sotto)<br />
Il centro del nostro workshop è Clarksdale, il luogo di nascita del blues.<br />
Qui è dove Muddy Waters viveva prima di trasferirsi a Chicago, da dove provengono musicisti come John Lee Hooker, Ike Turner, and Charlie Patton e dove di dice che il bluesman Robert Johnson abbia firmato il patto col diavolo alla Crossroad delle Highway 61&amp;49….<br />
Durante la settimana, esploreremo i  luoghi nelle vicinanze, faremo amicizia con  la gente del luogo, ci fermeremo nelle bettole dove si fa musica dal vivo ogni sera e incontreremo i musicisti e le loro bands….<br />
Altri amici locali &#8211;  ne ho già parecchi, tutti molto curiosi e interessati a questo progetto fotografico – ci aiuteranno durante questo workshop e ci mostreranno la vera vita lungo il Delta…<br />
Aspettatevi una settimana molto piena,  dove scoprirete luoghi che non fanno parte dei giri turistici, e incontrerete persone pronte a raccontarvi storie di un passato non tropo lontano…</span></span></span></p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">All the Blues Gone</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">By Rex Miller </span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Il Delta del Mississippi è all’origine del blues tradizionale: armoniche, chitarre e voci che  urlano di tristezze e sofferenze. Tuttavia, mentre il fiume scorre inarrestabile verso sud, i suoi musicisti  si sono spostati a nord e oltre, creando il Chicago Blues, Rock &amp; Roll, Jazz e Rap. <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">All the Blues Gone</span></strong> torna alle origini, dando al mondo un eredità musicale dal cuore della cultura Afro-Americana. Seguendo la tradizione del folklorista Alan Lomax, il fotografo  di Rex Miller ha lavorato per anni in Mississippi, costruendo una visione intima e privata dei musicisti del Delta, e delle loro vite fatte di anni passati nei campi, dalla schiavitù alla raccolta del cotone, attraverso i problemi delle città che adesso sono arrivati all’interno del Mississippi.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">All the Blues Gone</span></strong> non è un catalogo di storia musicale. È uno sguardo nella cultura e tradizione che hanno creato questa musica, vista attraverso gli occhi di alcuni suoi partecipanti. Le drammatiche fotografie di Miller rendono onore alla vitalità della vita sul Delta…dei campi di cotone dove il blues ha iniziato come <em>hollers</em> e <em>chants</em>, ai portici dove il blues si diffondeva  nelle notti, alle bettole dove il blues si lamenta fino all’alba e alll’ingloriosa prigione di Parchman dove in blues vive tra paura e solitudine…<br />
Qui ci sono gli uomini e le donne che  godono di fama localee sono ignorati a livello nazionale_ John Hurt,Jr., figlio di  Mississippi John Hurt: Roosevelt “Booba” Barnes, James “Son” Thomas and Ms.Z.L.Hill, leggende del Delta che sono recentemente scomparse….</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">All the Blues Gone</span></strong> fa parte di una mostra  multimediale che ha girato musei, gallerie, università in USA e Europa.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">La mostra comprende:<br />

<h5><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Kolkata’s Daily Life</span></span></h5>
<h5><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">October 10-18</span></span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">From the noisy, bustling streets of the major cities to the spectacularly beautiful countryside India is a sight to behold. Generations of visitors have returned home with compelling tales of adventure and unique encounters that live on in their memory.<br />
There are many spectacular locations to be found on the subcontinent but for the real India most of my Indian friends say that Kolkata (formerly Calcutta) is the place to go. Its streets offer up a rich pageant of all that life has to offer. For photographers such a place is a gift; you have only to spend an hour wandering through its streets and you are sure to capture compelling moments that offer an insight into the human condition. Having done this myself, I can definitely say that Kolkata has a lot to offer.We are offering two workshops in one: one on different aspects and differing ways to approach the City of Joy and at the same time we will enjoy the city during Durga Puja, the major festival.Our base will be at the Fairlawn Hotel. Do not expect fancy rooms, but do expect an experience. The Fairlawn is a special place in central Kolkata, a meeting point for artist, writers, journalists and photographers. It will offer the perfect atmosphere for our work.</span></span></span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Tuscany 2011 •  July 24/30</span></span></h6>
<p>Photojournalism is not about the amount of cameras you carry, neither is it about appearance &#8211; Photojournalism is about Empathy and have something on your mind which has to be told.</p>
<p>During the workshop I will explain how to reduce the &#8220;noise&#8221; in your head &#8211; narrow your story down and make you ready to go out with an energy and a clear mind to</p>
<p>cover the stories you want.</p>
<p>How do you research your story, get in contact with the right people and get close to human beings you have never seen before. Trust is a key issue, and at the end of the day it is all related.</p>
<p><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">“Jan Grarup (Danish, b.1968) has over the course of his eighteen-year career photographed many of recent history’s defining human rights and conflict issues. Grarup’s work reflects his belief in photojournalism’s role as an instrument of witness and memory to incite change, and the necessity of telling the stories of people who are rendered powerless to tell their own. His images of the Rwandan and Darfur genocides provide incontrovertible evidence of unthinkable human brutality, in the hope that such events will never happen, or be allowed to happen again. His work, The Boys from Ramallah and The Boys from Hebron, covers both sides of the recent Intifada expressed through the lives of children coming of age amidst the violence. Grarup’s work takes the viewer to the limits of human despair, dignity, suffering and hope. His images are relevant to us all, because they form a chronicle of the time in which we live, but at times do not dare to recognize.<br />
Grarup has been honored with some of the photography industry’s and human rights organization’s most prestigious awards, including two nominations for the W. Eugene Smith memorial fund for humanistic photography, eight World Press Photography awards, a special citation from the Leica Oskar Barnack Award, two UNICEF children’s awards, together with many other awards from POYi and NPPA. He has four times exhibited at VISA POUR L’IMAGE, and has won the VISA D’OR for his coverage of Darfur’s refugee crisis. Grarup has also received awards from press organizations in his native Denmark, including five times picture of the year, and five photographer of the year titles. He has had solo exhibitions in over fifteen countries, and has been a contributor to many books. Jan Grarup has twice been a member of the World Press Joop Swart Masterclass selection jury, and will this year participate as a teaching master.<br />
In 2006, Grarup released SHADOWLAND (Politikens Forlag), a testament of the people who have in times of strife allowed him into their lives. It chronicles twelve years of his work in Kashmir, Sierra Leone, Chechnya, Rwanda, Kosovo, Slovakia, Ramallah, Hebron, Iraq, Iran, and Darfur. It features a forward text by HH the Dalai Lama. His book, Darfur: a silent genocide, will be published this fall by Trolley Press, London.<br />
Grarup&#8217;s work regularly appears in major magazines such as Newsweek, The Guardian, Sunday Times Magazine (UK), Stern, GEO, Paris Match, L’Express, la Repubblica and other magazines worldwide. He lives outside Copenhagen with his wife and their three children. Jan Grarup works as a freelancer on both commercial as journalistic projects. Jan Grarup published his first book Shadowland in 2006. The book won PDN’s Photography Annual 2007 for best photography books (Foto 8 review). </span></span></span></p>
<p>Nel fotogiornalismo non ha importanza quante macchine fotografiche  hai al collo, né il tuo aspetto – è importante invece l’empatia a avere qualcosa in testa che vuoi e devi raccontare….</p>
<p>Durante questo workshop vi spiegherò a come ridurre il “rumore” che avete in testa – a focalizzare il vostro progetto e prepararvi per lanciarsi con energia e la mente  sgombra nella storia che volete realizzare e raccontare….</p>
<p>Come cercare il vostro soggetto, entrare in contatto con le persone giuste  e avvicinarvi a persone che non avete mai visto prima…Fiducia è la parola chiave</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Questo workshop si concentra su un approccio molto personale alla fotografia. Si richiederà ai partecipanti di trovare &#8211; dentro se stessi &#8211; la propria storia, l&#8217;anima di quello che si vuole mostrare nelle loro immagini. Questo workshop è totalmente concentrato sui contenuti e non sulla parte tecnica.<br />
Lo spirito del workshop è di approdare ad un processo aperto e in progess più che ad un lavoro finito. Voglio iniziare qualcosa con voi, non finirlo.<br />

<p style="text-align: justify;">It will not be a workshop on traditional portrait. Antonin will show how, even in the difficult art of portraiture, is possible to show one personal and unique style and interpretation. His photographs of people &#8211; celebrities or common people &#8211; have made him world famous.<br />
You will have to be ready to throw away most of your traditional ideas. Antonin&#8217;s images go beyond document, they speak of emotions and states of mind, both of the photographer and the person photographed.</p>

The latest of these are the first place prizes at the 2002 World Press Photo Awards in the categories of general news and nature and the environment. The next is the 2004 grant from Aperture publishing. In addition, Kratochvil&#8217;s fifth book Vanishing has been published in 2005 and marked another significant milestone for the craft to which he belongs. In 2001 he founded with other photojournalists the agency VII.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Non sarà un corso di ritratto inteso in senso tradizionale. Kratochvil mostrerà come, anche nel ritratto, si possa riuscire ad avere uno stile unico e personale. Il suo approccio alla fotografia di persone &#8211; famose e non &#8211; fa sì che il suo lavoro sia richiesto dalle più importanti testate internazionali. Bisognerà essere pronti a stravolgere buona parte dei concetti tradizionali.<br />
Le immagini di Kratochvil si spingono oltre il documentario, ci parlano di emozioni e stati d&#8217;animo, sia del fotografo che del soggetto fotografato.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Tuscany 2011 •  July 31 / August 6 </span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The digital age is giving documentary photographers extraordinary new ways to create and organize your photographic projects. This one week workshop will show how to use the new digital workflow to extend the ability of the visual storyteller. The instructor will share examples of his personal projects and work with National Geographic and other major publications to illustrate the possibilities of photography as a source of passion, personal expression and communicative power. He will discuss how you develop an idea, get access to your subject, determine your objectives and present your work. The objective is to share the passions for photography and inject that spirit into the students. Digital photography is just a new tool and what is most important is to understand the traditions of photography, storytelling, narrative and intimacy so we can integrate these qualities into our work using the new tools at our disposal.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The students will view the instructor&#8217;s work, outlining the complete process of creating a project from beginning to end. Each student would then be expected to work during the week for class discussion on how to move their work forward.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">“My work has been profoundly effected by the political and social issues of my time. I derive my passionate drive to commit significant time and energy to produce works that are in-depth and personal. My desire is to report on, capture and tell the stories that I believe will impact humanity in the short term and for decades to come.”</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Ed Kashi</span></strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> is a photojournalist, filmmaker and educator dedicated to documenting the social and political issues that define our times. A sensitive eye and an intimate relationship to his subjects are the signatures of his work. Kashi’s complex imagery has been recognized for its compelling rendering of the human condition. Kashi’s images have been published and exhibited worldwide. His innovative approach to photography and filmmaking produced the Iraqi Kurdistan Flipbook. Using stills in a moving image format, this creative and thought-provoking form of visual storytelling has been shown in many film festivals and as part of a series of exhibitions on the Iraq War at The George Eastman House.</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Toscana 2011 •   31 Luglio  / 6 Agosto<br />
</span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">L’era digitale sta dando ai fotografi, soprattutto a queli di reportage, nuove vie per creare e sviluppare i loro progetti fotografici. Questo workshop mostrerà come sfruttare il workflow digitale per espandere la capacità di chi racconta una attraverso le immagini. Ed Kashi mostrerà sia i suoi progetti personali che quelli realizzati per National Geographic e altre grandi riviste, per mostrare la opportunità date dalla fotografia sia come fonte di passione, che come mezzo di espressione personale dal grande potere comunicativo. Spiegherà come sviluppare un’ idea, come avere accesso al soggetto, come determinare il vostro obbiettivo e presentare il vostro lavoro. L’intento è quello di condividere la passione per la fotografia e trasmettere questo spirito agli studenti. La fotografia digitale non è altro che un nuovo strumento, la cosa più importante è capire la fotografia tradizionale, l’arte del raccontare con la fotografia storie private, integrando le nuove tecnologie in questo processo.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Gli studenti osserveranno il lavoro dell’insegnante cercando di comprendere ed estrapolare il processo di sviluppo di un progetto dall’inizio fino alla fine. Verrà chiesto agli studenti di lavorare e preparasi a discutere con tutta la classe di come procede il proprio progetto.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">“Il mio lavoro è stato profondamente influenzato dalle tematiche politiche e sociali dell’epoca in cui vico. La mia motivazione deriva dall’investire tempo ed energia per produrre lavori molto personali e profondi. Il mio desiderio è quello di catturare e raccontare storie che ,abbiano un impatto sull’umanità sia a breve che a lungo termine.”</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Ed Kashi</span></strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> è un fotogiornalista, filmmaker e insegnante impegnato nella documentazione di temi sociali e politici attuali. Un occhio sensibile e un dellicato rapporto intimo con i suoi soggetti rapprentano lo stile caretteristico dei suoi lavori. L’immaginario complesso di Kashi è stato riconosciuto ed apprezzato per la sua capacità di descrivere la condizione umana. Le sue immagini sono state esposte in tutto il mondo. Il suo approccio innovativo nella fotografia e nel filmmaking lo hanno portato a produrre l’Iraqi Kurdistan Flipbook.Usando immagini fisse e in movimento, questo progetto creativo e provocativo è stato presentato in molti film festival e come parte di mostre sulla guerra in Irak alla George Eastman House.</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • July 21 &#8211; 27</span> </span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">As all these mysteries are beyond us, we could feign to be the organizers, wrote Jean Cocteau. </span><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">It is a wonderful sentence to describe the mystery of Photography.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">If a photograph is initially taken to show or reveal something, for me it is much more interesting when it suggests something, a feeling that is difficult to put into words. </span><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Photography is more an art of perception than an art of creation.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">How do you show or reveal something that you are touched by through photography? How do you not only depict the subject, but also the emotion you feel in the presence of this subject? </span><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">When I am moved by a photograph, it is through the feeling, the emotion of the &#8220;author&#8221; of this image. If a portrait is to be a good one, a true portrait, the image must contain the personality of the model as well as of the photographer. </span><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">A great portrait is a meeting between three people: the model, the photographer and the viewer.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Photography: to write with light. This is obvious&#8230;</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The light is not only the means to inscribe images on your negative (or memory card), the light is also YOUR ACCOMPLICE to express your emotion about the subject you are drawn to, to share with other people who will be looking at your photographs. The light is your best friend to render your feelings. </span><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Any source of light has the potential to create &#8220;good photography&#8221;. The sun or even a simple light bulb hanging from the ceiling could lend a wonderful light for a portrait, a nude, or anything, really.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Photography is primarily an art of contemplation. We are photographers because we need to share our emotions.Technique is only secondary, but it is necessary if we are to express our feelings in the best way possible. </span><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Many photographers are great photographers, without beeing great technicians. </span><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">They know perfectly the technique they need for their expression. The technique is the instrument but more important is the music you are yearning to express.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Beyond the so-called “natural” light, it’s important to see and explore the atmospheric light in photography or, in other words, the light that one finds in all places. This also includes artificial light – not the light in a studio. More importantly, it is the light in a room or in a city at night. We will, therefore, explore the nocturnal light, walking through the night to not only take pictures of the night atmosphere but also of night portraits. We will learn and we will see that when we think there is no longer enough light, or light at all, there is always light for an image. When there is no longer quantity, there is always quality that remains – this is a truth for light.</span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Letter to the students</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>Your emotion is more important than the subject.</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>At first I have to say that you will find in Tuscany a real beautiful light and It will be the best place to improve the way to work essentially with natural light, as much outside than inside the house.</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>I will push you to realize that the most beautiful light is not in professional photography studios, but around you, everywhere.</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>The way in using light in photography is not &#8220;making lighting&#8221; but just looking at the light and thinking about what could  result in your photographs.</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>I will emphasize during our week together the mystery of photography, about the paradox of recording reality with the camera, but at the same time capturing a certain intangible mystery, a suggestion of something not seen that makes a photograph interesting.</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>What is a good photograph?</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>For me , it is something that is lurking, lingering, something that you can not describe, but something, like a vibration that touches you.</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>A good photograph is always a small miracle. We need to learn how to perfect our technique in order to be able to capture these little miracles which present themselves to us for the taking.</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>During this week I would like to leave competition with others and with yourselves behind. I would like you to just be who you are, what you feel, what you want to express through photography.</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>There is no sense in making a &#8220;beautiful picture&#8221;  if your heart is not in it.</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>I would like each of you to arrive at the end of the week with ONE image ( or even better more than one ) that truly demonstrates this &#8220;feeling&#8221; for you. An image which says &#8220;This is me&#8221;.  &#8221;I am completely in this image&#8221;</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>I would like you to bring, together with your portfolio, two to three images that you like a lot. (Not your own!) It could be a famous photograph by a famous photographer or a picture in a magazine or any anonymous image like an old postcard for example. The idea is that I will ask you to each to try to explain why you like these photographs and after that try to explain how the photograph is made, and how and why the technique used in each image lends to it a certain emotion. Please choose photographs where the lighting is especially important.</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>The essential aim of this workshop is that each of you will come back with a better awareness of light and all the ways we can use it to express what we want in a photograph. In addition to the light, I would like you to become more conscious of the final result that you are after before setting out to make an image.I do not remember who said: less is more but for me the best way to express ourselves with photography is often to show less, to avoid things which have no importance in an image and which could distract the eye.</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>We will work with models but It won&#8217;t be a typical nudes workshop, I am waiting for more than formal nudes, something more than showing a beautiful body with beautiful light . I would like you to do also portraits: Faces are the most mysterious part of a body , but also you could do just images of atmosphere, with always the aim to express the emotion you would like to render in the image with the light . I will ask also to each of you to do a self-portrait to express:</em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>&#8220;Me in Tuscany&#8221;. A way to express your feeling being there during this week, far or not from your home, far from your usual life. Doing a self-portrait is a good way to push you to express yourself sincerely.</em></span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Workshop Estivi 2013 • 21 &#8211; 27 Luglio</span> </span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">&#8220;Puisque tous ces mystères nous dépassent, feignons d&#8217;en être les organisateurs&#8221; Jean Cocteau</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Quando tutti questi misteri ci oltrepassano, potremmo fingere di essere organizzatori, scrisse Jean Cocteau. E’ una frase splendida per descrivere il mistero della Fotografia. Se una fotografia è scattata inizialmente per mostrare o rivelare qualcosa, per me è molto più interessante quando suggerisce qualcosa, un sentimento che è difficile descrivere a parole. La fotografia è più un’arte della percezione che un’arte della creazione. Come fate a mostrare o rivelare qualcosa che vi emoziona attraverso la fotografia? Come si può non descrivere soltanto il soggetto, ma anche l’emozione che provate di fronte al soggetto stesso? Quando sono emozionato da una fotografia, è sempre attraverso il sentimento, l’emozione “dell’autore” di questa immagine. Per far sì che il ritratto sia una bella fotografia, un vero ritratto, l’immagine deve contenere sia la personalità della modella che del fotografo. Un bellissimo ritratto è un incontro tra tre persone: la modella, il fotografo e lo spettatore. La Fotografia è scrivere con la luce. Questo è ovvio&#8230;</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> La luce non è soltanto il mezzo per imprimere le immagini sui vostri negativi (o memory card per il digitale), la luce è anche vostra complice per esprimere le emozioni sul soggetto dal quale siete attirati, e condividerle con la gente che guarderà le vostre fotografie. La luce è la vostra migliore amica per rendere al meglio i vostri sentimenti. Qualsiasi fonte di luce possiede potenziale per creare “una buona fotografia”. Il sole, o una semplice lampadina sospesa nel soffitto, potrebbe prestarvi una splendida luce per un ritratto, un nudo, o qualsiasi altra cosa. La fotografia è principalmente arte di contemplazione. Siamo fotografi perché abbiamo bisogno condividere le nostre emozioni. La tecnica è solo secondaria, ma è necessaria se vogliamo esprimere i nostri sentimenti nel miglior modo possibile. Molti fotografi sono grandi fotografi senza essere grandi tecnici. Conoscono perfettamente la tecnica che utilizzano per la loro espressione. La tecnica è lo strumento, ma la musica che desidearate esprimere è più importante.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><span style="color: #ff0000; text-align: justify;">_____________________________________________</span></span></p>
<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Lettera agli studenti</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">La vostra emozione è più importante del soggetto. Prima di tutto devo dirvi che in Toscana troverete una luce davvero bella e sarà il posto migliore per migliorare il modo di lavorare essenzialmente con luce naturale, sia in esterni che nelle case. Vi aiuterò a capire che la luce più bella non è quella professionale da studio, ma quella che vi circonda, ovunque. Il modo di utilizzare la luce nella fotografia non è attraverso gli strumenti di illuminazione, ma semplicemente guardando la luce e pensando al risultato delle vostre fotografie.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> Durante la settimana in Toscana, parleremo molto del mistero della fotografia, il paradosso di registrare la realtà con una macchina fotografica, ma allo stesso tempo catturare un certo mistero intangibile, un suggerimento di qualcosa non visto che rende una fotografia interessante.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> Cose’è una bella fotografia? Per me, è qualcosa che si nasconde, che esita, qualcosa che non si può descrivere, ma qualcosa come una scossa che ti tocca. Una bella fotografia è sempre un piccolo miracolo. Dobbiamo imparare a perfezionare la nostra tecnica per poter essere in grado di catturare questi piccoli miracoli che ci rappresentano.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> Durante questa settimana mi piacerebbe lasciare alle spalle le competizioni con gli altri e con voi stessi. Mi piacerebbe che ognuno di voi fosse se stesso, ciò che sentite, ciò che volete esprimere attraverso la fotografia. Non ha senso creare una “bella immagine” se il vostro cuore non vi trova dentro. Vorrei che ognuno di voi arrivasse alla fine della settimana con una immagine (o anche più di una) che davvero riesca a dimostrare questo sentimento per voi. Un’immagine che dica: “Questo sono io. Faccio completamente parte di questa immagine”.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> Vorrei che ognuno di voi portasse, oltre al vostro portolfio, due o tre immagini che vi piacciono molto (non le vostre!). Potrebbero essere di un fotografo famoso o una foto su una rivista o qualsiasi immagine anonima, come ad esempio una vecchia cartolina. La mia idea è di chiedervi perché vi piacciono queste immagini e di spiegarmi come sono state scattate, e come e perché la tecnica utilizzata in ogni immagine vi regala una particolare emozione. Vi prego di scegliere una foto nella quale la luce è particolarmente importante.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> Lo scopo principale di questo workshop è quello di tornare a casa con una conoscenza migliore della luce e tutte i modi di utilizzarla per esprimere ciò che vogliamo in una fotografia. Oltre alla luce, vorrei che diventaste più consapevoli del risultato finale di una fotografia ancor prima di crearla. Per me il modo migliore per esprimere noi stessi attraverso la fotografia è spesso mostrando meno, evitando cose che non hanno importanza in un’immagine e che potrebbe distrarre i nostri occhi. Lavoreremo con modelle, ma non sarà un tipico corso di nudo. Voglio più che nudi formali, qualcosa in più di un bel corpo con della bella luce. Mi piacerebbe che voi faceste anche dei ritratti: il viso è la parte più misteriosa del corpo, ma potreste semplicemente fare foto di atmosfera, sempre con lo scopo di esprimere l’emozione che vi piacerebbe rendere nell’immagine con l’utilizzo della luce. Vi chiederò anche di fare degli auto-ritratti per esprimere: “Io in Toscana”. Un modo per esprimere i vostri sentimenti durante la settimana in questa regione, lontani dalla vostra vita di tutti i giorni. Scattare auto-ritratti è un modo per spingervi a esprimere voi stessi sinceramente.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">It was the line that I wrote back in the 1970s as an advertising copywriter that convinced me to put down the pen and pick up the camera. In this workshop we will strive to expand the concept of seeing from within—taking the vision you hold in your heart and mind and turning it over to the camera you hold in your hands. The demands are tough yet the rewards are abundant, capable of astonishing even the home folk. During the course of the workshop, you will become part of a lively, compassionate, and savvy group of visual thinkers and creative souls. Every day the goal will be to discover how best to nurture, strengthen, and expand your internal vision as you build a broad and memorable body of personal work in photography.</span></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Quello che succede nella tua testa può succedere in una  macchina fotografica.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">E’ quello che ho scritto negli anni 70 come copywriter che mi ha convinto ad abbandonare la penna e iniziare a usare la macchina fotografica. In questo workshop ci sforzeremo di espandere il concetto di vedere dal di dentro – prendere la visione che tenete stretta nel cuore e nella mente e adattarla alla macchina che tenete tra le mani. La richiesta è alta ma le soddisfazioni sono ricche, capaci di stupirvi. Durante il workshop diventeremo parte di un gruppo vivo e appassionato di anime creative e “pensatori visivi”. L’impegno quotidiano sarà quello di  nutrire, accrescere e espandere la vostra visione interiore,mentre costruite un insieme di lavori fotografici ampi e memorabili.</span></span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • July 21 &#8211; 27</span></span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Of all the changes and innovations in photography that we’ve gotten used to over recent years, the most prominent are certainly those that relate to travel photography.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Until a few years ago this was a field reserved for great travelers, who worked on commission and were able to stay on location over an extended people of time – dedicating a great deal of time to planning the trip and the photos that would be taken- this has been completely changed.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The world has become smaller and more homogeneous thanks to easier travel and globalization; rendering this quest for the exotic futile and out of touch.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Photography, particularly digital photography, can be created with automatic cameras that leave little room for technical error. This allows a vast number of travelers to take their own pictures without having any contact with a developer or printer.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Besides all of this, the culture surrounding photography is always more aligned with immediate sharing: if before we had boring evenings staring at a projector to see <em>I was here!</em> Now we have social networks that deliver photos in real time, as if to say: <em>I am here! Now!</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Fortunately it isn’t like this for everyone&#8230;people do still travel for other reasons: for curiosity, to learn, to know themselves.  Therefore photography is no longer simply postcards, it is becoming our way of interpreting the world, of understanding through images that we create and carry home&#8230;and maybe even print!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8230;.our photographs become stories&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This workshop aims to re-evalutate the term “Travel Photography”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The first order of business is understanding what place photographic service has today: the style, content, ideas and definitions of simple and complex projects.  And, rather importantly, travel planning, photo planning, methodologies for organization once you have arrived on location.  To sum it up: true photographic work.  Then comes the “boring”, but necessary, phase, understood both as a work of digitization of the dark room (the computer) and the creation of archived files easily and ready to spread with unquestionable quality.  It is the workflow, the important process in the life of a photographer, between taking an image and publication or archiving.  And we will also dedicate time to methods of presentation and the distribution of images, currently something entrusted to the web.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We will look at creating and presenting a first portfolio, how to edit a photographic service whether it be for publication, a contest, an editor or for personal use.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">These aren’t secrets but labor-intensive methods that require, above all, focus and drive: that is our objective.  Really, it is a moment to look deep within ourselves, to understand how much of our life we want to dedicate to this passion, in which direction to go to avoid uselss and frustrating destractions and to be satisfied with our work.</p>
<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">BIOGRAPHY</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Andrea_Pistolesi_PP.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3152" alt="Andrea Pistolesi" src="http://www.tpw.it/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Andrea_Pistolesi_PP-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>Born in Florence in 1957, Andrea Pistolesi studied geography at the local university.  He still lives there, a place he considers more of an inspiration than a city.  As an evolution of his incessant desire to travel Andrea became a photo reporter, specializing in human and environmental documentation.   Today he is always working for Italian and international magazines, such as: Islands, Travel &amp; Leisure, Geo, Departures, Hemispheres, Gulliver, Gente Viaggi, Bell’Italia, Bell’Europa, Airone, Viajar, Rutas del Mundo and many others.  His volumes on exotic destinations (Indonesia, New Zealand, Morocco, South Africa, Buddhist Asia) have been published, along with images of major European tourist destinations; he is the only photographic author for the Casa Editrice Bonechi in the United States and is currently creating a series about the major religions of the world for Touring Club Italiano.  Andrea has become known for his research in the use of light in his compositions, making them deeply personal images.  Every year he holds workshops on the profession of the reporter and the use of digital technology.  A step towards artistic photography was a natural evolution in his professional development.  He has had solo shows in Italy and abroad.  He participated in the VII Biennial of Photography in Turin and received first prize in Italy in 1998 for the Fuji European Press Award.  He has taken reportage images for advertising as well, including Iveco calendars.  Recently he has been interested in and developed his use of digital technology, a medium he defines as “ the rebirth of camera oscura for color photography.”</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer workshop • 21 &#8211; 27 Luglio</span></h6>
<p><span style="text-align: justify; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal;">Tra tutti i cambiamenti  e innovazioni a cui la fotografia ci ha abituato negli ultimi anni,  i più evidenti sono certamente quelli legati alla fotografia di viaggio.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Se fino a qualche anno fa questo era un campo dedicato ai fotografi grandi viaggiatori, che lavorando su commissione potevano permettersi di restare nei luoghi da documentare per lunghi periodi &#8211; dedicando così molta cura sia alla preparazione del viaggio che alle immagini da scattare &#8211; questo è stato completamente mutato da diversi fattori.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il mondo è divento più piccolo e più omogeneo grazie alla facilità di viaggio e alla globalizzazione, per cui oggi cercare l’esotico sarebbe patetico oltre che fuori dal tempo.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">La fotografia, in particolare con il digitale, si può realizzare con attrezzature automatiche che raramente sbagliano la parte tecnica del lavoro. Questo permette ad una vasta platea di viaggiatori di scattare le proprie immagini senza fare riferimento alle pubblicazioni di settore.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Inoltre la cultura della fotografia è oramai sempre più legata alla condivisione immediata: se prima c’erano le noiosissime serate di proiezione per fare vedere <em>io sono stato qui!</em> adesso con i social network arrivano immagini in tempo reale, quasi a volere dire <em>: io sono qui! adesso!</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Per fortuna non per tutti è così…c’è ancora chi viaggia per altri motivi: per curiosità, per confrontarsi, per cercare un proprio percorso. Allora le fotografie non sono più semplici cartoline, ma diventano un nostro modo di interpretare il mondo, di capire attraverso le immagini che realizziamo e che portiamo a casa…magari per stamparle!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">…le nostre fotografie diventano storie…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Questo workshop vuole resettare il termine Fotografia di viaggio.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In primo luogo vi è la realizzazione di un servizio fotografico che abbia un senso oggi: lo stile, i contenuti, l’ideazione o la definizione di progetti semplici o complessi. E, altrettanto importanti, l’organizzazione dei viaggi, delle riprese fotografiche, le metodologie organizzative una volta “sul terreno”. In una parola il lavoro fotografico vero e proprio. Poi viene la fase “noiosa”, ma necessaria, della digitalizzazione intesa sia come lavoro di camera oscura (al computer) che come realizzazione di file facilmente archiviabili e pronti alla diffusione con una qualità incontestabile. E’ il workflow, divenuto un momento importante nella vita del fotografo come tramite tra la ripresa e la pubblicazione, o l’archiviazione. E dedicheremo molta attenzione anche ai metodi di presentazione e diffusione delle immagini, oramai quasi completamente affidati al web.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Vedremo come realizzare e presentare un primo portfolio, come montare un servizio fotografico, sia che debba essere presentato a una redazione, a un concorso, a un editore, che per mostrarlo ai nostri amici.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Non vi sono segreti ma piuttosto ovvie, faticose metodologie che necessitano solo di essere focalizzate e incoraggiate: quello è il nostro obiettivo. In fondo è l’occasione per guardarsi dentro, capire quanto della nostra vita vogliamo dedicare a questa passione, in quale direzione andare cercando di evitare inutili e frustranti deviazioni, ed essere gratificati da questa ricerca.</p>

Continua a vivere qui, in questo luogo che considera più un’ispirazione che una città. Come evoluzione della sua incessante voglia di viaggiare Andrea è divenuto un fotoreporter specializzato nella documentazione umana e ambientale. Oggi lavora continuamente per riviste italiane e internazionali quali Islands, Travel &amp; Leisure, Geo, Departures, Hemispheres, Gulliver, Gente Viaggi, Bell’Italia, Bell’Europa, Airone, Viajar, Rutas del Mundo, e molte altre. Suoi volumi su destinazioni esotiche (Indonesia, Nuova Zelanda, Marocco, Sud Africa, Asia Buddista) sono stati pubblicati assieme a guide sulle maggiori destinazioni turistiche europee; è il solo autore per le foto della collana dedicata dalla Casa Editrice Bonechi agli Stati Uniti e sta realizzando una collana sulle maggiori religioni del mondo edita dal Touring Club Italiano. Andrea è divenuto particolarmente noto per la sua ricerca nell’uso delle luci che unisce a una composizione molto personale delle immagini. Ogni anno tiene workshops su la professione di reporter e l’uso del digitale. L’approccio alla fotografia artistica è stata una naturale evoluzione della sua maturità professionale. Ha tenuto mostre personali sia in Italia che all’estero. Ha partecipato con una personale alla VII Biennale di Fotografia in Torino e ha conseguito nel 1998 il primo posto italiano per il Fuji European Press Award. Ha realizzato reportage pubblicitari per clienti quali i calendari Iveco. Recente è il suo interesse e sviluppo dell’elaborazione digitale, un mezzo che egli definisce “la riconquista della camera oscura per il fotografo del colore”.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Tuscany 2011 •  July 31 / August 6 </span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">This workshop is open to both professional and emerging photographers: its goal is to provide the participants with the main tools for exploring the infinite expressive possibilities of the photographic media. Each good picture captures a unique and unrepeatable instant and represents an encounter, fleeting yet perfect, between one’s own personal vision and the history that one wants to tell.<br />
The course will explain how to construct and develop a photographic project and will try to analyze various moments: conception, realisation, and promotion of the project, delving into the critical points of each of these phases.<br />
Some of the aims will be to identify a subject that interests not only the photographer, but also the media and the public opinion, to search for a personal artistic style and to confront the practical aspects tied to the profession of photojournalism, such as the presentation of one’s work in editorial terms, the management of relationships with the editing office of newspapers and magazines, and the functioning mechanisms of photographic agencies. Students will be required to develop individual projects that will be examined and analyzed daily, correcting the weak points and emphasizing the strong points. Through the daily meetings and the editing sessions, the participants will be asked to develop their own capacity to tell a story with images, conveying an immediate and coherent visual message.<br />
This workshop will encourage its students to explore their emotional horizons while focusing on the need to combine one’s personal narration with the expectations of the photographic market. </span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><strong>FRANCO PAGETTI</strong><br />
Franco Pagetti, member of VII photo agency has emerged as one of the principal chroniclers of the Iraq war, since 2004 he has constantly been based in Baghdad on assignment for TIME Magazine.<br />
A veteran of many conflict zones, including Afghanistan, Kosovo and East Timor, Israel, Sierra Leon and South Sudan , Pagetti began to cover Iraq in January 2003, months before the outbreak of hostilities. He was among a handful of photojournalists who remained in Baghdad when the war began, and his lenses captured the full measure of the “shock and awe” bombing campaign unleashed by the U.S.-led coalition. His images from those weeks tell of the chaos and fear that permeated the city.<br />
Some of Pagetti’s finest work was done not in embeds with the U.S. military, but on the streets of Iraq’s cities. Going fearlessly where few photojournalists dared to tread, he mingled among Iraqis and photographed them in their homes, their schools and offices, their shops and mosques. In the process, he built the most comprehensive portfolio of the life of a war-ravaged society. His images of Iraqi people are suffused with a deep understanding of their culture and a profound empathy for their current condition.<br />
Many war photographers can capture the blood and sweat of human combat, but it takes a special eye – the eye of an artist – to peer into the minds of those caught up in the conflict.  In addition to TIME Magazine, he has worked on assignment for Newsweek, The New York Times, The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker and Stern. His work has been published in Le Figaro, Paris Match, The Times of London ,The Independent, The Sunday Times and DAYS JAPAN Magazine.<br />
When not in Iraq for TIME Magazine, Pagetti lives in Milan, Italy. Chemistry PHD at Milano ‘s University.</span></span></span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Toscana 2011 •   31 Luglio / 6 Agosto </span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Questo workshop è aperto a fotografi professionisti ed emergenti e si pone l’obiettivo di fornire ai partecipanti i principali strumenti per esplorare le infinite possibilità espressive del mezzo fotografico. Ogni buona fotografia coglie un istante unico ed irripetibile e rappresenta un incontro, fugace ma perfetto, tra la propria visione personale e la storia che si vuole raccontare. Il corso spiegherà come costruire e sviluppare un progetto fotografico, si cercherà di analizzare vari momenti: ideazione, realizzazione e promozione del progetto, approfondendo i punti critici di ciascuna di queste fasi. Uno degli scopi sarà l&#8217;identificazione di un soggetto che non interessi solo il fotografo ma anche i media e l’opinione pubblica, la ricerca di uno stile compositivo personale ed affrontare aspetti pratici legati alla professione del fotogiornalismo come la presentazione del proprio lavoro in termini editoriali, la gestione dei rapporti con redazioni di giornali e riviste ed i meccanismi di funzionamento delle agenzie fotografiche. Ai partecipanti verrà richiesto di sviluppare progetti individuali che saranno quotidianamente esaminati ed analizzati, correggendo i punti deboli ed esaltando i punti di forza. Attraverso incontri giornalieri e sessioni di editing si chiederà di sviluppare la propria capacità nel raccontare storie per immagini ,veicolando un messaggio visivo coerente ed immediato. Questo workshop propone ai suoi studenti un viaggio all’interno dei propri orizzonti emotivi e riflette sulla necessità di conciliare la propria narrazione personale con le aspettative del mercato fotografico. </span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><strong>FRANCO PAGETTI</strong><br />
Franco Pagetti, membro dell’agenzia VII, si è affermato tra i principali reporter della Guerra in Iraq: dal 2004 è stato costantemente a Baghdad per incarico di TIME Magazine.<br />
Veterano di molte zone di conflitto &#8211; Afghanistan, Kosovo, East Timor, Israele, Sierra Leone e Sudan del Sud, Pagetti iniziò a coprire la guerra in Iraq nel Gennaio 2003, prima dell’inizio delle ostilità. Fa parte di un ridotto gruppo di fotografi che restarono a Baghdad all’inizio della guerra, e le sue immagini hanno catturato in pieno la potenza delle bombe lanciate dalla coalizione diretta dagli USA. Le sue immagini di quel periodo ci mostrano il caos e la paura che permeavano la città.<br />
Alcune delle immagini più riuscite di Pagetti sono state realizzate quando non era associato alle forze militari, ma sulle strade delle città Irachene. Aggirandosi coraggiosamente in luoghi non sicuri, si è mescolato con gli iracheni, e gli ha fotografati durante la vita quotidiana, nelle loro case, a scuola, negli uffici e moschee. Ha così composto un portfolio molto dettagliato sulla vita di una società sconvolta dalla guerra.<br />
Le sue immagini del popolo iracheno mostrano una profonda comprensione della loro cultura e un sostegno alla loro condizione attuale.<br />
Molti fotografi di guerra possono catturare il “sangue e sudore” del combattimento, ma occorre un occhio speciale – quello di un’artista – per entrare nella mente di chi è coinvolto nel conflitto.<br />
Oltre a Time Magazine, ha lavorato con incarichi per Newsweek, The New York Times, The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker e Stern. Il suo lavoro è stato publicato su Le Figaro, Paris Match, The Times of London ,The Independent, The Sunday Times e DAYS JAPAN Magazine.<br />
Quando non è Iraq per Time Magazine, Franco Pagetti vive a Milano. É laureato in chimica all’Università di Milano.</span></span></span></p>

<h5><span style="font-weight: normal; color: #ae1122;">Tuscany 2010 &#8211; Sant&#8217;Anna in Camprena, July 18-24</span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Sometimes travelling and photographing are enemies because the need to take pictures may prevail on the pleasure of travel. But photography and travel – two forms of research and self-expression &#8211; can coexist and ran in parallel, if one takes the time to observe before photographing. Travelling may enhance the photographic expression because it redoubles intensity, it opens up to the unusual.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">At first you search the spirit of the place, what makes the places you visit and the cultures you approach unique. Then you identify the thread, you become aware of the fact that the point is not collecting single pictures but developing a narration through images, an organized succession of moments. Telling stories, not destinations. Also stories about things already seen and narrated. What makes sense is the look, the sensibility. Not necessarily ‘otherness’, geographical or cultural distance (though they can help), but one’s own interpretation and expressive ability, that mixture of information and description, on the one hand, and suggestion and emotion on the other, fixed in the sequence of the pictures.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">During the workshop we will analyse the constituent elements of a travel reportage (from the subjects to the context, from the movement to the details), and we will also explore the surrounding area on which each participant will create and develop a personal story. The emphasis will be on content and vision, not on technique.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">After the presentation of the day of the arrival, the first full day will be dedicated to the lecture of the portfolios of each student and to a general introduction accompanied by the projection of some images. We will start talking about single pictures and complete stories, genius loci and construction of a style, cliché and personal point of view, invasiveness of the photographer and respect and determination in action. We will finish with a first approach to the territory, the beginning of the visual reading of the microcosm around.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The following two days will be dedicated to exercises and in-depth analysis of the principal elements of a story. One day will be dedicated entirely to the landscape (nature and architecture). The next day to the so-called &#8220;human factor&#8221; (people and everyday life).</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">In the last two whole days each student will develop a story through images, based on an idea identified progressively during the exercises and visits of the previous days. The final morning we will close the circle with the presentation and analysis of the complete works. Conscious that, together with Wole Soyinka, «I never feel I have arrived, though I come To journey&#8217;s end».</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Antonio Politano</span></strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> is a photographer and journalist specialized in travel reportage. As freelance he contributes to several magazines and newspapers, in particular “La Repubblica”, “L&#8217;Espresso” and “National Geographic Italy”. He is the author of some publications, among which “Agenda del viaggio” (Travel Diary) and “I colori della luce” (The Colours of the Light, the places of Van Gogh, Gauguin, Monet). He is the editor of “Sguardi” (Looks), a photography and travel online magazine. He has exhibited, in solo and group exhibitions, in Italy and abroad. He is the curator of the programme of the Festival della Letteratura di Viaggio (Festival of Travel Writing). He lives in Rome.</span></p>

<h5><span style="font-weight: normal; color: #ae1122;">Tuscany 2010 &#8211; Sant&#8217;Anna in Camprena, 18-24 Luglio</span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">A volte, viaggio e fotografia sono nemici perché l’urgenza di catturare immagini può sopraffare il piacere del viaggio. Ma fotografia e viaggio &#8211; due forme di ricerca ed espressione di sé &#8211; possono coesistere e correre in parallelo, se ci si dà il tempo di osservare prima di scattare. Il viaggio può favorire l’espressione fotografica perché moltiplica l’intensità, espone all’insolito.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">All’inizio si va a caccia dello spirito del luogo, ciò che rende speciale i territori attraversati e le culture accostate. Poi si individuano fili rossi, si prende coscienza che l’importante non è collezionare singole foto, ma sviluppare una narrazione per immagini, una successione organizzata di istanti. Raccontare storie, non destinazioni. Anche di cose già viste e narrate. A dare senso è lo sguardo, la sensibilità. Non necessariamente l’alterità, la distanza geografica o culturale (anche se possono aiutare), ma la propria interpretazione e capacità espressiva, quel mix di informazione e descrizione, da una parte, e suggestione ed emozione, dall’altra, fermato nella sequenza degli scatti.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Nei giorni del workshop si analizzeranno gli elementi costitutivi di un reportage di viaggio (dai soggetti al contesto, dal movimento ai dettagli), e si esplorerà anche il territorio circostante sul quale ogni partecipante creerà e svilupperà un racconto personale. L’enfasi sarà su sguardo e contenuti, non sulla tecnica.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Dopo la presa di contatto del giorno di arrivo, la prima giornata intera sarà dedicata alla visione dei portfolio di ciascun studente e a un’introduzione generale, accompagnata dalla proiezione di alcune immagini. Si inizierà a ragionare di singole immagini e storie articolate, di genius loci e costruzione di uno stile, di cliché e punto di vista personale, di invasività del fotografare e rispetto e determinazione nell’azione. E si terminerà con un primo approccio al territorio, l’inizio della lettura visiva del microcosmo attorno.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">I due giorni successivi saranno dedicati a esercitazioni e approfondimenti sugli elementi principali di un reportage. Un giorno sarà dedicato per intero al paesaggio (natura e architettura). L’altro al cosiddetto fattore umano (gente e vita quotidiana).</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Negli ultimi due giorni interi ogni studente si dedicherà allo sviluppo di una storia per immagini, sulla base di un’idea individuata progressivamente nel corso degli esercizi e dei sopralluoghi dei giorni precedenti. La mattina finale si chiuderà il cerchio, con la presentazione e analisi dei lavori compiuti. Coscienti che, con Wole Soyinka, «mai sento di essere arrivato, anche se giungo alla fine del viaggio».</span></p>

<h5 style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Tuscany 2012 •  July 29 &#8211; August 4<br />
</span></span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Our first stories were spoken. Soon we learned to write, and then we learned to create visual stories by making photographs. Now technology has closed the circle, allowing us to easily add the power of sound and voices combined with text, images and motion to create more powerful stories in multimedia. Using a still camera and digital recorder, we can now easily create and share stories that we once only imagined.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The secret of multimedia is that we experience the world first with our ears and then with our eyes. Add to that digital technology and the web which has made our lives faster but it has also opened up amazing and revolutionary opportunities to tell stories in new ways.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">In this class we will learn how to use the power of sound to amplify the impact of our images and stories, to give them depth and texture and resonance. The power of the still image is still the key, but we&#8217;ll learn how to combine images, sound, motion and text together to increase the impact of our still photography and to create a new kind of story that we can share online.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Each person will record, photograph and create at least two short multimedia presentations in the class.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">As far as the way out brain works: when we enter a new situation, our brain captures a lot of &#8220;images&#8221; and files them away. That&#8217;s why the first day in a new location is so exhausting. The next day, the brain doesn&#8217;t take as many images: it refers to the ones already filed away in its &#8220;cache&#8221;, just like as a computer does. The next day your brain only captures a new image if something changes. Sound takes less energy for the brain to process, less &#8220;brain bandwidth.&#8221; so we&#8217;re constantly monitoring the sound around us every waking moment.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">So we&#8217;ll start by concentrating on sound: what kind of recorder and microphone to use, how to listen for for great sound, how to record &#8220;clean&#8221; sound. how to conduct an interview with a person, what makes a powerful audio track, and finally how to edit our sound. We&#8217;ll record sounds and interviews and practice editing them every day. We&#8217;ll also learn how to mix sound and music together.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Next we&#8217;ll talk about making photographs for multimedia. While one perfect image stands out on a gallery wall or in the pages of a news paper, we&#8217;re conditioned to see fresh images constantly on our computer screen. We&#8217;ll talk about how to deliver a number of different kinds of images for a multimedia piece. We&#8217;ll talk about the types of images that work well in multimedia. And we&#8217;ll go out and capture them.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">In class each person will combine the images shot and the sounds they captured and edited along with titles or text slides into a multimedia story. We&#8217;ll talk about editing and sequencing and software programs that allow us to combine still images and audio.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Imagine what it would be like if the next time you looked at a picture, you could hear a voice speaking to you? Now we can, and we will. It&#8217;s a powerful new way to tell stories.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">BIOGRAPHY<br />
</span> <strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Bob Sacha</span></strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> is an award-winning photojournalist who has shot around the world. For more than 25 years, he has produced in-depth photo essays, portraits and covers for National Geographic, Life, Time and Fortune, among dozens of other national and international publications. Versatile and always curious, he has explored subjects ranging from American presidents to China&#8217;s environmental impact, Kolkata tea stands to revolutions in mapping. He photographed the first all-digital around-the-world assignment for National Geographic Magazine, the cover story &#8220;Caffeine.&#8221; He has received many international awards, including the Alfred Eisenstaedt Award for Magazine Photography, Pictures of the Year and NPPA awards.

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">___________________________________________________________</span></p>
<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Toscana 2012  •  29  Luglio &#8211; 4 Agosto </span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Le nostre prime storie erano raccontate e trasmesse oralmente. Poi abbiamo imparato a scrivere, e successivamente a raccontarestorie tramite l’uso della fotografia. Adesso la tecnologia ha chiuso il cerchio, permettendoci di aggiungere la forza del suono e delle voci combinate con il testo, immagini e imovimento per creare storie ancora più forti attraverso il multimedia. Usando una macchina fotografica e un registratore digitale, siamo ora in grado di realizzare e condividere facilmente storie che fino ad ora avevamo solo immaginato.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Il segreto del multimedia è che noi facciamo esperienza del mondo prima con le nostre orecchie e poi con i nostri occhi. Inoltre c’è da aggiungere che la tecnologia digitale e internet hanno reso le nostre vite più veloci, dandoci l’opportunità di raccontare storie in modi del tutto innovativi.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">In questo workshop impareremo ad usare l’efficacia del suono per amplificare l’impatto delle nostre immagini e delle nostre storie, per aggiungere loro profondità, struttura e risonanza. La forza dell’immagine fissa continua ad essere la chiave di lettura, ma impareremo a mettere insieme immagini, suoni, movimento e testo per aumentare l’impatto della nostra immagine fissa e per creare un nuovo tipo di storia che possiamo condividere in rete.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Ogni studente, durante il corso del workshop, farà registrazioni, fotografie e realizzerà almeno due brevi presentazioni multimediali.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Per quanto riguarda come funziona il nostro cervello: quando ci troviamo in una situazione a noi nuova, il nostro cervello cattura tante “immagini” e poi le immagazzina. E’ per questo motivo che il primo giorno in una nuova location è così estenuante. Il giorno successivo, il cervello non cattura così tante immagini; fa riferimento a quelle già archiviate nel sua “cache” , proprio come fa un computer. Il giorno dopo ancora il nostro cervello cattura una nuova immagine solo se qualcosa è cambiata o sta cambiando. Il suono richiede al cervello meno energia per essere processato e infatti noi monitoriamo costantemente i suoni che ci circondano in ogni momento.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Cominceremo quindi concentrandoci sul suono: su quali tipi di registratori e microfoni usare, su quali suoni sono buoni, su come registrare suoni “puliti”, su come condurre un’intervista con una persona, su come rendere forte una traccia musicale e alla fine su come “editare” i nostri suoni. Registreremo suoni e interviste e faremo editing tutti i giorni. Imparemo inoltre a mixare suoni e musica insieme.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Successivamente parleremo di come fare fotografie per il multimedia. Mentre un’immagine perfetta è appesa al muro di una galleria d’arte o è stampata nelle pagine di un giornale, noi siamo condizionati a vedere costantemente immagini “fresche” sullo schermo del nostro computer. Parleremo di quali sono le immagini che meglio funzionano in una produzione multimediale. E usciremo fuori a scattarle.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">In classe ogni studente unirà le fotografie scattate e i suoni registrati e farà un editing che comprenda titoli o testi per creare una storia multimediale. Parleremo di editing e di come creare una sequenza e di quali sono i programmi di software che ci consentono di combinare immagini e suoni.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Immagina come sarebbe se la prossima volta che guardi una fotografia fossi in grado di sentire una voce che ti parla. Adesso si può, e lo faremo. E’ un modo innovativo, potente ed efficace per raccontare delle storie.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">BIOGRAFIA<br />
</span> <strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Bob Sacha</span></strong><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"> è un fotogiornalista, vincitore di numerosi premi. Per più di 25 anni ha realizzato servizi fotografici, ritratti e copertine per riviste e giornali come National Geographic, Life, Time e Fortune, oltre a dozzine di altre pubblicazioni nazionali ed internazionali. Versatile e sempre curioso ha esplorato vari soggetti che spaziano dai presidenti Americani all’impatto ambientale Cinese, dalle bancarelle di tè di Calcutta, alla rivoluzione della cartografia.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Ha realizzato il primo lavoro interamente digitale per il National Geographic, la storia di copertina “Caffeine”. Ha vinto numerosi premi internazionali, fra i quali il premio Alfred Eisenstaedt, il Pictures of the year e l’NPPA. Le fotografie di Sacha sono state ampiamente esibite e fanno parte di numerose collezioni private sia in Europa che negli Stati Uniti.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Nel Dicembre 2007 Sacha ha partecipato agli Webby e Emmy award vincendo per lo studio della produzione multimediale MediaStorm.org a New York. L’anno prima ha insegnato fotografia alla Università dell’Ohio. Vive a New York è si sta totalmente dedicando ai progetti multimediali e documentari audio-visivi.</span></p>

<h5><span style="font-weight: normal; color: #ae1122;">Tuscany 2010 &#8211; Anghiari, June 27/July 3</span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">In the age of digital photography, the fascination with the darkroom remains intact. Closing yourself in the darkroom to process your film and wetting your hands in order to complete the print: there is not really anything more fascinating than seeing a picture come to life before your very eyes. This is an occasion to learn the entire creative process from development to print, forgetting Photoshop for a week!</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">In the course of this week, the participants will step back into the past (a very recent past!). They will take pictures with film, in black and white, and they will learn the fundamental information for printing their own photos. Years ago, Andrea Pistolesi spoke about digital photography and Photoshop, saying that photographers had finally taken possession again of the darkroom…<br />
So why not discover what the darkroom really is?</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">It will only take a few days to come into contact with the traditional black and white: the shoot, the development, the contact sheets, the print…take your time to load a roll of film, to take a picture &#8211; one at a time with the right exposure &#8211; to enter into the darkroom, to roll up your sleeves and to begin to process your film… there is no hurry!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The course is dedicated to those who want to get closer to photography in a creative and relaxed way, without having too many notions to learn, but at the same time wanting to know more… after this experience, you will have a clearer vision of ‘ how’ to take a picture, a basic concept that we tend to forget with the easiness and speed of digital photography…</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">You will come into contact with fundamental instruments: the enlarger, chemicals, printing paper, etc. You will also acquire techniques and useful advice to be capable of performing a do-it-yourself darkroom. Because, even in the everyday life, it’s possible to develop and print anywhere with the right tools.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">___________________________________________________________</span></span></p>
<h5><span style="font-weight: normal; color: #ae1122;">Toscana 2010 &#8211; Anghiari, 27 Giugno/3 Luglio</span></h5>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Nell&#8217;epoca del digitale il fascino della camera oscura resta intatto: dal chiudersi al buio per sviluppare una pellicola fino al bagnarsi le mani per realizzare una stampa, non c&#8217;è niente di più affascinante che veder nascere una fotografia davanti ai propri occhi. Un&#8217;occasione per conoscere l&#8217;intero processo creativo dallo sviluppo alla stampa dimenticando per una settimana Photoshop!<br />
Nel corso di questa settimana, i partecipanti faranno un salto nel passato (un passato molto recente…) Si scatterà in pellicola, in bianco e nero, e si impareranno i dati fondamentale per stampare le proprie fotografie. Andrea Pistolesi, anni fa, parlando del digitale e di Photoshop, disse che finalmente i fotografi si erano ri-appropriati della camera oscura…<br />
E allora perché non scoprire che cosa è veramente la camera oscura?<br />
Basteranno pochi giorni per entrare in contatto col bianco e nero tradizionale: ripresa, sviluppo, provini, stampa…riprendetevi il vostro tempo, quello di caricare un rullo, di scattare una foto alla volta con la giusta esposizione, di entrare in camera oscura, rimboccarvi le maniche e cominciare a gestire le vostre fotografie…non c’è fretta! Il corso è dedicato a chi vuole avvicinarsi alla fotografia in maniera creativa e rilassata, senza troppe nozioni da imparare, ma contemporaneamente per saperne di più…dopo questa esperienza, avrete una visione più chiara del “fare “ fotografia, e avrete chiaro quello che c’è alla base della fotografia, concetto che spesso, con la comodità e velocità del digitale, tendiamo a dimenticare… </span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Si entrerà in contatto con gli strumenti fondamentali: ingranditore, bagni di sviluppo, carte per la stampa, etc, e si acquisiranno tecniche e consigli utili per essere alla fine in grado di realizzare una camera oscura fai da te. Perché, anche nella vita di tutti i giorni è possibile, con i giusti accorgimenti, sviluppare e stampare dovunque.</span></span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 • July 21 &#8211; 27 </span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At this juncture in photography, I think it is valuable to be fluid in multiple ways of capturing visuals. I am constantly making new personal work and I incorporate polaroids (well, fuji now…) and video into all of it.<br />
It is important to be able to interpret client / agency ideas and needs while at the same time bringing something special to the shoot. What makes you stand out and unique? To be able to consistently do this is the challenge. Adding something you are truly interested in: be it video, polaroids, instagram, really anything that brings more dimension to the shoot and adds something that you want to see, will always help<br />
I will be showing you artists, filmmakers and photographers who have influenced me, the visuals I look at to get inspired for shoots and some of my commercial and personal projects from start to finish. We can talk about testing models, behind the scenes shooting, social media and ways to show work online and in a portfolio.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There will be plenty of time to work on our personal project here. We will be photographing at least three different models and there will be group and one on one time for both shooting and critiques. I encourage students to also bring some kind of journal. There are many details that are forgotten with time, and creatively this is a time to reflect and go back to the basics of why you love photography.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Please bring to class the digital camera that you use, a laptop with the appropriate card reader, an external hard drive and have some kind of editing program on your computer so we are able to edit and look at work. Be comfortable with your workflow. If your camera doesn&#8217;t have video capabilities, bring some kind of camera with motion capture, even if it is just your phone. . I use a Canon 5D Mark II for stills and motion but that is not necessary. I have shot work using many different kinds of film and digital capture. And also film, polaroid and any other kind of camera is welcome to supplement your vision. Feel free to email me with any questions.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The first little video vignettes were shot for the designer Erica Tanov in 2008 using a low grade Sony. It was the first thing I ever produced using video. I knew nothing.</p>

<h6><span style="color: #ff0000;">Summer Workshop 2013 <span style="color: #ff0000; font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold;">• </span> 21 &#8211; 27 Luglio</span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Allo stato attuale della fotografia, penso che per riuscire a catturare il mondo del visuale sia importante rimanere fluidi e aperti a molteplici forme. Infatti, lavoro costantemente a nuovi progetti e in essi mescolo tutto, dalle polaroid (beh, ora fuji&#8230;) ai video.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">É di primaria importanza essere capaci di farsi interpreti delle idee e dei bisogni dei clienti e delle agenzie rimanendo allo stesso tempo originali nello scatto. Cosa ti fa diventare unico ed emergere dal gruppo? Ecco, essere in grado di mantenere questa condizione di originalità rappresenta la vera sfida quotidiana. Aiuta sempre aggiungere quel qualcosa in cui si è davvero interessati: video, polaroid, instragram, qualsiasi cosa che porti più di una dimensione allo scatto e completi ciò che si vuole vedere.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Vi renderò partecipi degli artisti, registi, e fotografi che mi hanno particolarmente influenzato, e il mondo del visuale in generale che ha ispirato i miei scatti e alcune delle mie pubblicità e dei progetti personali dall’inizio alla fine. Si discuterà di come ci si rapporta ai modelli, della preparazione dei servizi fotografici, dei social media e dei modi attraverso i quali promuovere il proprio lavoro online e tramite il proprio portfolio.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ci sarà molto tempo per lavorare sui progetti personali. Si scatterà con almeno tre modelle/i diversi, e sia il tempo per scattare che quello per la lettura e critica delle immagini sarà individuale e collettivo. Incoraggio i miei studenti a mantenere un diario (e portare i propri appunti di fotografia precedenti). I dettagli spesso si perdono col tempo, e dal punto di vista creativo il workshop rappresenta un momento di riflessione e un ritorno alle radici sul perché ognuno di voi ama la fotografia.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">È necessario portare la propria attrezzatura fotografica digitale, un portatile, un lettore di scheda, e una memoria esterna. Inoltre, è importante che abbiate dei programmi adeguati di editing fotografico in modo tale da poter guardare e lavorare sulle foto. É altresì fondamentale essere abili e a proprio agio con la propria attrezzatura e il flusso di lavoro. Nel caso in cui la vostra macchina fotografica non sia attrezzata per i video, portate una macchina con possibilità di motion capture, non importa se digitale, super8 o 16mm. Personalmente uso una Canon 5D Mark II per lo still e il motion ma non è necessario avere una macchina simile. Ho lavorato con diversa attrezzatura fotografica, sia manuale che digitale.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">L’utilizzo di analogico, polaroid o altri tipi di macchine fotografiche è possibile per ampliare il vostro approccio al mondo del visuale. Non esitate a contattarmi se avete altre domande.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Il mio primo lavoro di produzione di video vignette è stato girato per la designer Erica Tanov nel 2008 con una sony compatta. È stata il primo video che ho girato, non ne sapevo nulla allora.</p>

</span></span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The workshop proposed by Stanley Greene will concentrate on the omnipresent question of the placement and the attitude of the photojournalist that works for customers who consistently grant less time and space to express oneself. Consequently, the tools for telling stories with honesty and the rigor of the photographer and the journalist will be examined.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">____________________</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The photojournalist is a storyteller that comes and goes in the lives and destinies of man. The documentary process – to grasp, understand, and decipher the heart of the subject – is the main question to which the photographer is the element of response. Time is of the utmost importance to bring the project to a good end. It permits the photographer to remain on location in order to understand what is happening and to tell the story as it should be told (not as a tourist would recount a disaster).</span></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">My photography is a traditional photography in a non-traditional environment. Today, being a photojournalist means being entirely determined and “engaged in humanity”. It’s literally necessary to get involved in photojournalism…being a photojournalist means being a witness, an informer, a reporter and not the star of the story. This is the current evolution of photography.</span></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">The race against deadlines makes you miss the sense of humanity. Watching the suffering of others does not signify that they are there to ensure our glory and reputation. The photographer that dances between light and darkness must – in order to photograph conflicts, hunger, and death – expose the spark of humanity in the darkness and do it with wide open eyes. The camera is the revealing instrument; once this is understood, we become free and the world opens to our eyes…</span></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em></em><em><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Never forget that we are messengers. (<span style="color: #c0c0c0; text-align: justify;">Stanley Greene)</span></span></em></p>

</span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0; text-align: justify;">Il workshop proposto da Stanley Greene avrà come filo conduttore la questione onnipresente del posizionamento e dell’attitudine del foto-giornalista che lavora per committenti che concedono sempre meno tempo e spazio per esprimersi. Saranno pertanto esaminati tutti i mezzi per riuscire a raccontare storie con l’onestà e il rigore del fotografo e del giornalista.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">____________________</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ffffff;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em>Il foto-giornalista è un racconta-storie che va e viene nelle vite e nei destini degli uomini. Lo svolgimento documentario – decriptare, capire e cogliere il soggetto per entrargli nel cuore &#8211; è la questione centrale nella quale il fotografo è l’elemento di risposta. Il tempo è di importanza capitale per portare i progetti a buon fine, permette di rimanere sul luogo in modo da capire ciò che succede e di raccontarlo come si deve: non si tratta di essere un turista dei disastri.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ffffff;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em> La mia fotografia è una fotografia tradizionale in un ambiente non-tradizionale. Essere fotogiornalista oggi significa essere totalmente determinati e “impegnati nell’umanità”. È letteralmente necessario entrare nel foto-giornalismo… perché essere tale vuol dire essere testimone, informatore / reporter e non la star della storia, un’evoluzione attuale della fotografia.</em></span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ffffff;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><em> La corsa contro le scadenze per la consegna delle immagini fa perdere il senso dell’umanità. Guardare la sofferenza degli altri non significa che siano lì per assicurare la nostra gloria e nomea. Il fotografo che danza tra la luce e l’oscurità deve &#8211; per fotografare i conflitti, la fame, i morti &#8211; esporre questa scintilla di umanità nell’oscurità e farlo gli occhi ben aperti. La macchina fotografica è lo strumento rivelatore; una volta che si capisce questo, diventiamo liberi e il mondo si apre ai nostri occhi…</em></span></span></span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Workshop Estivi 2013 • 28 Luglio &#8211; 03 Agosto</span><br />
</span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Questo workshop esplorerà il linguaggio silenzioso e le connessioni emozionali tra fotografo, soggetto e ambiente.<br />
Si esplorerà il processo intimo e intenso che porta alla creazione di un ritratto ben riuscito, focalizzandosi sul fotografare le persone nel proprio ambiente personale, dentro e fuori le loro case o i loro posti di lavoro. Gli studenti impareranno come superare la sfida di instaurare una connessione più profonda con i loro soggetti, anche in un periodo di tempo limitato. Si discuterà sulla differenza di approccio da adottare a seconda che si fotografi sotto incarico o per un progetto personale.<br />
Attraverso esercizi di gruppo e individuali, proiezioni e critiche, gli studenti acquisteranno maggiore sicurezza e svilupperanno le basi per ulteriori approfondimenti.<br />
Lavorando in ambienti sempre nuovi e con strumenti sempre diversi, i partecipanti saranno incoraggiati ad andare oltre all’ approccio tecnico e a considerare maggiormente gli aspetti estetici. Si darà particolare spazio all’uso della luce e alla varietà delle sue sorgenti, dalla luce naturale a quella flash portatile, sembre facendo attenzione a rendere tutto il più semplice e personale possibile. Si potranno, infine, provare diversi tipi di macchine fotografiche.</span></span></span></p>

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Tuscany 2012 •  July 22 &#8211; 28<br />
</span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">I like to consider my own work to be something close to storytelling although it doesn’t always follow a conventional narrative structure.<br />
It is sometimes political, sometimes personal, and sometimes both.<br />
Broadly speaking, the work is based in the real, although I want to embrace the idea of fiction within this context of the real. My work is very much about expression, and human relationships, and how that is shaped through history and landscape.<br />
We will make a combination of portraits and documentary images including people, landscapes, and stills.<br />
I am keen to introduce the idea of using text with images, although this is not a must.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">For my workshop I hope to encourage and facilitate each participant to find their own route in articulating what it is they want to say.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">I will set assignments each day, and through group and one on one discussion, we will begin to piece together or explore the beginnings of a body of work. I would like to stress that there is no pressure to produce something concrete, and that the main aim is to enjoy and to be open to new ideas and possibilities.<br />
This is a practical workshop, although the emphasis is not on the technical.<br />
I will look through portfolios of work already created, so I would like each person to bring some images they have already made. I will also show my own work and speak about how I put images together.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #888888;">BIOGRAPHY</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Vanessa Winship was born in the United Kingdom.<br />

Vanessa lived and worked in the Balkans and Turkey for almost a decade, she is currently based in the UK.<br />
She is interested in ideas around the concepts of borders, land, desire, identity memory and history, and about how those histories are told and identities are expressed.<br />
Her imagery explores the junction between chronicle and fiction, both through her visual imagery and through the use of text, which she refers to as memory texts.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Her work has been recognised internationally.<br />
She has received two first prize World Press Photo Awards 1998, and 2008 respectively. She received honourable mention from the Oskar Barnack award in 2003 for Albanian Landscape , and was a finalist for the same award in 2008 for her work from the Black Sea.<br />

<h6><span style="color: #ae1122;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Toscana 2012 •   22 &#8211; 28 Luglio<br />
</span></span></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #870f0f;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Amo considerare il mio lavoro come qualcosa di molto vicino alla narrazione, sebbene non segua sempre le strutture convenzionali della narrativa.<br />
E’ qualcosa di politco, a volte personale, e qualche volta un’unsieme delle due cose.<br />
Generalmente, il soggetto prende spunto dalla realtà, sebbene il mio intento sia quello di inserire l’idea di finzione all’interno del contesto reale.<br />
Il mio lavoro si focalizza sulle espressioni, sulle storie tra le persone e il modo in cui esse si delineano attraverso il contesto e lo scenario nel quale esse si trovano.<br />
Nel corso, costruiremo insieme una combinazione di ritratti e immagini documentarie, siano esse incentrate su persone, oggetti o paesaggi.<br />
Spingo con entusiasmo l’idea di unire testi e immagini, senza che questo debba però diventare un unico modo di lavoro.<br />
Con il mio corso, spero di incoraggiare e avviare tutti i partecipanti a trovare il loro sentiero, sviluppando i concetti che hanno il desiderio di esprimere.<br />
Ho previsto incarichi giornalieri e, attraverso discussioni di gruppo e faccia a faccia, inizieremo insieme a organizzare e ordinare i pezzi del corpo di lavoro. Vorrei sottolineare che non è necessario produrre per forza qualcosa di concreto o ben delineato, lo scopo è quello, infatti, di divertirsi e di aprirsi a nuove idee e possibilità.<br />
E’ un corso con un’anima fortemente pratica, ma non si limita ai soli aspetti tecnici. Farò una lettura dei portfolio e dei lavori già completati degli studenti, per cui vorrei che ciascuno mi portasse le proprie fotografie o i propri progetti.<br />
Mostrerò il mio lavoro personale e spiegherò i modi e processi in cui metto insieme le immagini.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #888888;">BIOGRAFIA<br />
</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Vanessa Winship è nata in Gran Bretagna.<br />

Vanessa ha vissuto e lavorato nei Balcani e in Turchia per quasi dieci anni e attualmente vive e lavora in Gran Bretagna.<br />
Le tematiche a lei più care sono i concetti di confine, terra, desiderio, identità, memoria e storia, e il modo in cui le storie ad essi legate vengono affrontante e narrate.<br />
La sua fotografia esplora i punti di contatto tra la cronaca e la finzione, entrambe filtrate dal suo mondo immaginifico e accompagnate da testi che lei chiama testi della memoria.<br />
Il suo lavoro è riconosciuto a livello internazionale. Ha vinto due premi al World Press Photo, il primo nel 1998 e l’ultimo nel 2008.<br />
Ha ricevuto la menzione d’onore dal Oskar Barnack Award nel 2003, per il suo « Albanian Landscape » ed è stata finalista per lo stesso premio, nel 2008, per il suo lavoro sul Mar Nero, « The Black Sea ».<br />
I suo lavori sono stati esposti in tre differenti occasioni alla National Portrait Gallery di Londra, durante il premio annuale Photographic Portrait, nel 2007 come Miglior Foto in Bianco e Nero, per il Godfrey Argent Award nel 2008 e, infine, nel 2009 quando ha vinto il secondo premio dello stesso.<br />
Nel 2008 ha ricevuto « l’Iris D’Or » dal Sony World Photography Awards come fotografo dell’anno. Nel 2007 ha pubblicato la sua prima monografia, commisionata dalla rivista tedesca Mare, dedicata al suo lavoro sul Mar Nero e intitolato « Schwarzes Meer », che è stata poi premiata dal premio « Orvieto » per il reportage.<br />
Nel 2008 è uscita la sua seconda monografia « Sweet Nothings », edita dalla casa francese « Images en Meneuvres ». Le sue fotografie sono state esposte diverse volte sia al « Visa pour L’Image » di Perpignan, che al festival di Arles, oltre che al Look3 di Charlottesville negli Stati Uniti.<br />
Nell’estate 2008, Vanessa è stata invitata, dal curatore ospite Christian Lacroix, a esporre la serie di fotografie del lavoro « Sweet Nothings » al festival di Arles.<br />
I suoi lavori sono stati esposti molte volte in personali e mostre collettive in tutta Europa. « Sweet Nothings » e « The Black Sea » sono attualmente al Kunsthal di Rotterdam e alla Side Gallery di Newcastle, in Inghilterra.<br />
Vanessa è stata relatore a diversi incontri di fotografia, workshop e festival, come il « Lumix » festival di fotografia per giovani fotografi, « Photo-pub » in Slovenia, « Doku-photo » in Kosovo, « Insight », British Journal of Photograph di Londra ,il British council, ISSP Lettonia.</span></p>
