FOTOGRAFIA E ARTI VISIVE PER L'ARCHITETTURA

Designed as a workshop, the goal of this class is the implementation of structures and methodological tools for knowledge, description and interpretation of places. Subject of attention are territories of contemporary town. The purpose is the knowledge of visual media, above all photography, intended as tools for vision education and as project exercise. The main goal isn't a photographers or visual communication experts training but a students look education about landscape and architecture ways of seeing.

Through a series of lessons, through some "landscapes visions", this workshop tries to start a vision education, looking for useful traces to the architectural project. It's a visual education that uses comparison with other and different visions of the contemporary landscape. It's a look that chooses what to see, it uses the interpretative system of description as a tool to give back the knowledge experience. A first study of the history and technique of photography is realized through the vision and the story of various authors works and poetics.
