This four-week photography course is offered through the Florence Summer Program. Undergraduate and graduate students will explore contemporary life within a centuries-old urban environment and examine the influences of Italian Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque art and architecture on western visual culture. Students will be encouraged to incorporate or address the legacy of Florentine traditions and styles of architecture, science and art in their own photographic image making. Students’ work may incorporate techniques as varied as documentary methods or constructed imagery.
