Harry Gruyaert very rarely offers workshops. This four day course organised in Venice provides participants with an in depth learning environment, in direct contact with a photogra pher whose influence has left a lasting mark on the history of colour photography in Europe.For more than fifty years, Harry Gruyaert has developed an approach rooted in careful observation of spaces, an intimate relationship with colour, and the way a place reveals itself through light and everyday situations. His work questions our perception of urban environments and the position of the viewer when faced with images that are both open and enigmatic.The workshop is part of a reflection entitled A Sense of Place, focusing on photography’s ability to convey the experience of a place. Venice offers a particularly rich field of exploration, thanks to the complexity of its circulation, the diversity of its atmospheres, and the singularity of its urban landscapes.Throughout the workshop, participants will alternate between independent shooting sessions, group critiques, and one-to-one mentoring sessions with Harry Gruyaert.
