TPW XMAS NEWSLETTER
Dear friends,
here we are, ready to close another year and to enter a new one…yes, it’s again that time of the year…!
2022 went very fast, between good and bad news, natural disasters, conflicts…but all of us managed to have – hopefully – happy moments with the people we love, dedicating time to our passions.
So here we are making new plans for the future.
We already have a schedule for the first half of 2023, and working on the second part.
And with some news.
First of all, in 2023 TPW will officially turn 30! We anticipated our anniversary last year, with the publishing of our book, but 2023 is the DATE!
From a small group of passionate photographers, meeting on the hills of Buonconvento, Tuscany in 1994, we’ve grown to a solid group of students who – throughout the years – have followed our workshops, in Italy and abroad. Many people shared our path in photography, some made a career out of it, and others have continued improving their skill. We are a big family!
To celebrate this anniversary, we are launchin a new project, MY TPW, where we would like you to send us pictures from your past experience at TPW – see details below.
________________________________
Back to our schedule for 2023
Please have a look at the dates, and stay in touch and follow us on our social channels: we fill you up soon with new projects.
We will start the year with a workshop in Venice, run by Giacomo Brunelli.
Giacomo has recently published been a book on Venice and he will be the ideal leader for this class. In addition, Venice in the suspended time between the end of Carnival and Easter is at its best, with the winter fog, no tourist, the city all for us.
Dates will be March 12-18 2023

Venice, March 12-18, 2023
In May there will also be another workshop with Anders Petersen, one of our most popular classes!
The venue will be Genoa.
We have decided to reduce the number of spots available, so hurry up!

Finnish American photographer, Arno Rafael Minkkinen, has been a constant presence at TPW ever since he started his affiliation with us back in 1996 and throughout the years. When he contacted me at the end of last year with an exciting new project, I could not refuse it!
Such a brilliant idea! We are still in the final phases of the organization: essentially we will run a new program in Finland! Together with Kimmo Koskela, award winning film director, cinematographer and producer, Arno decided to give life to a new project dedicated to photography (and soon to filmmaking, writing, and other forms of the visual arts). It’s a fantastic location for a workshop in the village of Paltaniemi on the shores of one of Finland’s largest lakes, close to the city of Kajaani just below the Arctic Circle. Three teachers will run 3 one-week workshops. (Arno being one of the three). It’s called SUOMENVALO. It means Finnish Light Workshops. Please check for details here.

SUMMER WORKSHOPS
Rather than running workshops in different venue around Italy, we decided to go back to our roots, and concentrate all our Summer Workshop in one venue, Villa Lina, where we have run workshops in the recent year. The plan is to have 2-3 workshops per week, to create the old atmosphere of TPW, where interaction between students from different classes generates new inputs and ideas. In August we will be back to Villa Lina, our buen retiro in northern Lazio (one hour north of Rome). There, as usual, we will find the magic atmosphere of this beautiful isolated estate, while all the rest of Italy is packed with vacationers. For now we have scheduled the following workshops.

MY TPW
Dear friends, in 2023 we will celebrate our 30th Anniversary!
We anticipated the event with our book
https://www.tpw.it/tpw-anniversary-book/
last year, but 2023 will be the official date.
To celebrate this important goal, we are thinking of launching a new project: MY TPW.
We are inviting all students of TPW (sooo many in 30 years!) to send us max 3 photographs shot during their staying at TPW. It can be a pic that was used for the final selection, or a back stage pic, or a landscape or a portrait of someone you met during the workshop.
Together with the images, it will be very useful to include of course your name (or nickname you want to use), some data about the photo(s): where, when, subject, possibly teacher.
We will create a new page on our website www.tpw.it and then post it on our social media.
In our book we had many photographs from TPW files: now it is your turn to go through your archives and find pictures to submit.
So, why wait? Start the search now, select the images, and send these to us, either by e-mail or with we transfer.
Thank you so much, I am looking forward to hear from you: if you have any suggestions and questions, please contact me.

Cari amici,
eccoci di nuovo qua, a chiudere un altro anno e a iniziarne uno nuovo…Il 2022 è trascorso troppo in fretta, tra notizie buone e cattive, disastri naturali, conflitti e pandemia persistente, ma speriamo che ognuno di voi sia riuscito a trovare un angolo di felicità insieme alle persone che amate, e trovato conforto nel coltivare i vostri interessi.
Allora eccoci qui con I nuovi piani per il futuro: abbiamo già il programma per i mesi fino all’estate, e stiamo lavorando su quelli per la seconda parte dell’anno.
Ecco le novità.
Nel 2023, TPW compierà ufficialmente trenta anni! Avevamo anticipato l’evento con la pubblicazione del nostro libro l’anno scorso, ma la data ufficiale è 2023 !
Da un gruppetto di appassionati di fotografia sulle colline di Buonconvento in Toscana, nel 1994, siamo cresciuti attraverso gli anni, per diventare un folto gruppo di partecipanti che si riunisce ogni anno, in Italia e all’estero. Il TPW adesso può contare su una vasta schiera di sostenitori. Molti studenti ritornano, altri ci raccomandano ai loro amici, tutti in un modo o nell’altro si tengono in contatto. Siamo una grande famiglia!
Per celebrare questa data, proponiamo un nuovo progetto, MY TPW, dove vi chiediamo di inviarci le vostre foto scattate durante l’esperienza al TPW.
Vedi sotto per dettagli.

Torniamo ai nostri programmi:
Inizieremo l’anno con un workshop Venezia, con Giacomo Brunelli.
Giacomo ha recentemente pubblicato il suo nuovo libro su Venezia, e sarà il leader ideale. Venezia a fine inverno, tra Carnevale e Pasqua, offre moltissimo…la nebbia, le strade silenziose, l’assenza quasi totale di turisti, la città tutta per noi.

Venice – A Winter Tale
Venice, March 12-18, 2023
A Maggio avremo il classico incontro con Anders Petersen e il suo workshop.
Questa volta abbiamo scelto Genova. Abbiamo deciso di ridurre il numero di partecipanti, per rendere più fluida la gestione del workshop, quindi prenotatevi al più presto!

A Luglio parità il nuovo progetto Suomenvalo, in collaborazione con Arno Minkkinen e Kimmo Koskela: un progetto in collaborazione con TPW, per esplorare nuove zone.
Ne parlavamo da anni con Arno, e finalmente vede la luce.
Suomenvalo significa Luce della Finlandia, che in questi mesi estivi è particolare (e onnipresente!)
Tutti i dettagli qui
SUOMENVALO
Nelle settimane tra la fine di Luglio e inizio Agosto ci troverete a Villa Lina, nella Tuscia laziale. Mentre il resto d’Italia è preso d’assedio da turisti e vacanzieri, i boschi di Villa Lina provvederanno a isolarci dal resto del mondo. Per ora abbiamo programmato questi workshop, e se ne aggiungeranno altri.
