“Quando scatto delle foto, cerco di riprendere una scena che catturi la curiosità di chi osserva la foto… voglio che lo spettatore si chieda come potrebbe essere la vita per quella persona rappresentata, o quante persone hanno annusato quel fiore, o quanti hanno attraversato quella porta”
Firenze è una città che rimane fedele alle sue radici storiche ed è un hub per le voci contemporanee. La bellezza sta sia nel ricco patrimonio artistico della città che si può trovare nei suoi numerosi musei sia nelle sue strade ricolme d’arte e architettura degli ultimi cinque secoli. Questa miscela crea un ambiente stimolante che gli studenti FUA-AUF abbracciano nelle loro attività accademiche.
La mostra, realizzata dagli studenti di Introduction to Digital Photography, consiste in una selezione di stampe in bianco e nero 5×5 cm. Agli studenti è stato fornito questo formato specifico da seguire e poi è stato dato loro libero sfogo per interpretare ciò che Firenze rappresenta per loro. Questo mezzo offre l’opportunità di catturare i dettagli inaspettati della città.
Questo progetto curatoriale fa parte della più ampia missione FUA-AUF che mira a integrare studenti e comunità locale attraverso un processo di apprendimento esperienziale. Immergendosi nell’ambiente fiorentino, gli studenti hanno sviluppato un’opportunità unica per interagire con la comunità e sviluppare legami sociali e culturali.
“When I take pictures, I try to capture a moment that leaves a person intrigued in the subject … I want the viewer to wonder or have a sense of curiosity of what life may be like for that person or how many people have smelled that flower or walked through that doorway”
Florence is a city that stays true to its historical roots and is a hub for contemporary voices. Beauty lies both in the city’s rich artistic heritage that can be found in its many museums and its streets showcasing art and architecture from the past five centuries. This blend creates a stimulating environment that FUA-AUF students embrace in their academic pursuits.
The exhibition, created by Introduction to Digital Photography students, consists of a selection of 5×5 cm black and white prints of students’ work. These student photographers were given just this specific format to follow and then given free rein to interpret what Florence represents to them. This medium offers an opportunity to capture the raw details of the city.
This curatorial project is part of the larger FUA-AUF mission that aims to integrate students and community through a process of experiential learning. Immersing themselves in the Florentine environment, the students developed a unique opportunity to engage with the local community and develop social and cultural connections.
