TPW IN CORTONA IS DONE - THANKS


The TPW "Making of a Story" is over and, once again, I'm here to thank all the staff in Cortona, Carlo Roberti in particular.
This time the TPW experience was combined with the CORTONA ON THE MOVE photo festival, with my show BANGKOK SOUL alongside those of David Alan Harvey, Antonin Kratochvil, Alex Majoli, Arno Minkkinen (being in such an important company is sincerely humbling for me!) and emerging photographers that showed fantastic ideas and enthusiasm. The shows will remain open until September, so plan a visit there. Thanking to the Cortona guys who started all this is a must.
More thanks goes to the other teachers at TPW that created the usual environment for sharing intense and sincere human and photographic experiences and emotions.
Last but not least my thanks to my students from whom I always absorb a lot of enthusiasm. Their final work is the video above.
I'll post later some thoughts from this intense experience.

  1. Andrea, thank you very much for sharing with us your time, knowledge, and experience. This workshop has been eye-opening to me, and you know from our discussions it's been hard for me to change my mindset. Also, sharing with us the future of professional photography with no doublespeak has been immensely valuable. This helped me understand the reality of our craft and left me with new directions to explore. For this, thank you! Do well, Andrea, I hope our paths will cross again.
