Colour and creativity
Paul Valéry noted that the photo eyes accustomed to wait and see in reality so that it really only that theres. Why, he added, what there is never is immediately visible since we always grasp what we expect to see or what we know.
In this sense, and only in this sense, let's talk about the laboratory that carries out an authentic "pedagogy of the eye", as my work aims not only to educate the eye to see the real reality one wants to represent and express, but also strives to build the vision to capture, in what a simple rectangle of paper cuts, that meaning and feeling that hit Locchi bootrom image and must be able to retain and communicate.
The content of the workshop is to identify ourselves into the witnessing and its independence with sensitivity towards the world we know through practical exercises and theoretical rational and irrational, all motivated in their meaning, thus eliminating the risk of doing amateur photos and pictures but not to represent express and interpret them by making visible the invisible, their reality.
so I consider the camera, to which I have no fetishism a wonderful relay between reality and image. A "relay", a bridge, a transition, which each time with students, play a decisive challenge that Valery himself did not hesitate to call "philosophical".


Program
The content of the workshop will be to show its sensitivity an experience made invention, emotion, thought, imagination, versatility, an adventurous thought that he breaks down the rules because the Photographic Exhibitions creative must not reproduce the visible, but make it "visible" and so do.
For members who will work with Fontana there will be "homework" to do, take pictures after the theoretical part, then examine the various works and comments all togheter.
