Deskripsi kursus

Today our daily life can be said to be dominated by photographic images. They appear everywhere: on advertising billboards, in newspapers, on television, and above all via social networks, conditioning our lives more than we are able to fully comprehend. In the late 20’s, a famous Photographic artist, Laslo-Moholy-Nagy, said “not the one who ignores the alphabet, but the one who ignores photography, will be the illiterate of the future”. It’s a prophecy that has totally come true. In fact we all became visually-literate some time ago, from when televisions first appeared in every home, from when advertising images wink at us from every corner, and through the millions of posts on social media that accompany our daily lives.

This phenomenon however, in my opinion, is now almost a pathology, a sort of visual influence that makes us perceive the world only through the images that are given by it, making us almost totally destroy a careful and perceptive vision of the reality that surrounds us. Our gaze glances over things and places, thus nullifying our sense of place in the actual space in which we live. Reality, the world, of which we are totally an integral part, is a magical place, waiting to be discovered, ready to marvel us, and where every object, even the most banal, whispers its ecstatic Silent Life.

Our Darkroom course seeks to be like an oasis, in the middle of all this chaos and speed, a place to slow down, think, and be patient, a place where the magic of light manages to illuminate the artistic side that is in all of us. It’s an opportunity to be able to understand exactly which chemical procedures to use, in order to obtain high-quality images, and without ever having to run to our best friend to fix our computer problems.

We will begin by analysing the different types of cameras and films, their varying formats, and we will study the issues around obtaining correct exposure in photography, the theory and practice of developing a negative, leading finally to making Fine Art prints for an exhibition. Studying the masters of black and white photography will deepen our study of pure form, a magical and fascinating journey, which may seem a bit “retro”, but which will enable us to understand the magic of both the light and the dark, and apart from providing us with basic photographic technique, will educate our eyes to perceive the magic of things, and to grasp the mysterious significance of the riddles which lie within the folds of everyday life.

"A wonderful Experience!"

Maria Frangakis, siswa dari Amerika Serikat

The trip was everything I expected and more. The apartment that Anja helped me find was very close to the school and convenient to all the various landmarks I wanted to see. I arrived at the school able to communicate only in the present tense and in four weeks I have the tools to communicate in the past, the imperfect, the present progressive, the future, the imperative, the conditional, and the conjunctive (subjunctive). It is now up to me to continue to practice conversation to be able to use all that I learned with confidence.
I found the staff to be knowledgeable and attentive to the students' needs. Once a week they took us on a tour of the city and gave us historical information about the places and/or practical information on how to shop for food and tips on what to order when going to a restaurant.
The office staff was very helpful and responsive to my particular needs: restaurant recommendations, beauty salons, and extra private lessons.
The directors were responsive to my needs, beginning with their help finding appropriate lodging and making sure to place me in the right class for my level. All the above mentioned contributed to an extraordinary experience. I am planning to go back to the center and continue my studies next year.

"Perfect experience for me to learn a new skill in a lovely environment"

William Berner, siswa dari England

I couldn't recommend this more. I had 1-1 tuition in the dark room and out in the city taking photographs. My teacher was so friendly and helpful in all areas. I had a truly terrific experience and feel lucky to have done it. The location was a short walk for me, the classroom was intimate and friendly, the activities were just what I was after.

"I would describe my overall experience as very positive and insightful."

Maximillian Oppermann, siswa dari Jerman

I really enjoyed the mix between pure language classes and cultural aspects of the Italian language. The teachers had different teaching styles which made every week a bit different. Further this also meant that every new teacher had to assess my level again at the start of a new week. I believe that the learning outcome would be even better if there would not be that much change regarding teachers. But this is a very minor point. The classes were very intense which benefited the learning process. Overall, I’m very satisfied with my experience.

"Very intensive, educational"

Carine Van Craen, siswa dari Belgia

The lessons took place in an old palazzo just 20 minutes walking distance from our host family.

Communication with the school went very smoothly.

The teacher was very competent. She took my wishes into account.

The host family was very welcoming. There was plenty of opportunity to practice the language.

I will definitely book a course again in the future.

"My two weeks at Centro Italiano was a very rewarding experience. It far surpassed my expectations."

Frank Pasian, siswa dari Kanada

My experience at Centro Italiano was totally positive. I cannot think of one negative aspect.

First of all, the administration was most helpful in setting up my class schedule and home-stay. They were prompt, efficient and very understanding.

My choice of courses turned out to be a very good one. I opted to take activities that were conducted in Italian rather than language courses per se. I started with one week of painting and drawing at a nearby studio. The instruction and the teachers were excellent. The teachers were very knowledgeable and supportive. I spent the second week learning to cook with Ottavia. I can't complement her enough. She was pleasant, warm and a most capable teacher. We would start our sessions at 10:00 and spent three hours preparing three or four Tuscan dishes from scratch. Around 1:00 we would sit down to a delicious lunch which I had had a great part in preparing. The whole experience was delightful. My sincerest thanks to my excellent teacher Ottavia.

The other aspect of my Centro Italiano experience that i have to mention is the home-stay. The school chose carefully and well when they placed me in a conveniently located home near the Duomo. My host was Anna. A sweet, kind woman who was very thoughtful and most helpful. At the beginning of my stay in Florence i had a slight 'accident' while walking through the local market. Anna was like a close friend helping and guiding me through the 'crisis'. I am sure that she and I will stay in touch in the future.

"A lovely, conversational way to review the Italian I learned as a child and grow more confident in being conversational."

Anthony Panzera, siswa dari Amerika Serikat

Classes
Likes - The rooms were fine.
Dislikes - The foyer to the building where the school is needs lights. I could not see the door once I was buzzed into the building, and after two days, would feel around for the door knob out of muscle memory.

Teachers
Likes -- Maria was fantastic. I took one on one lessons, hoping to have a low pressure experience reviewing Italian and building up my ability to be conversational. Maria absolutely took this to heart and provided the experience I was looking for.
Dislikes -- That my lessons ended! :-(

Location
Likes -- perfect location. It was an easy 20 minutes' walk from the apartment where I was staying. It was also away from the touristy center of Florence, so I got to have a morning walk with my coffee in quiet neighborhoods on my way to class. The class is near a supermarket (Carrefour) which was useful.
Dislikes -- none.

Facilities
Likes -- they were fine
Dislikes -- the light switch to the bathroom is outside the bathroom door.

Activities
Likes -- Maria's activities were helpful. We spent a lot of time in conversation and then did some didactic review of tenses, which also included some activities using flash cards and games. This was the perfect experience I was looking for.

Housing
Not applicable - had my own housing.

"My lessons in Itallian were all that I expected, and more."

Matt Bates, siswa dari Kanada

Maria, my teacher, was excellent. She followed a definite program based on my level and was able to outline that for me at the beginning. She was friendly, energetic and interesting. I particularly liked that she let me finish my sentences, full of mistakes, before correcting me so I could finish my thought.

The school personnel were always friendly, professional and efficient. The learning spaces were quite comfortable, and the various areas of the school were inviting. I didn't feel locked into a sterile classroom.

I feel like my competence in speaking Italian advanced significantly in my two weeks at the school.

It was awkward for me as a vegan when I was invited to try things that were being made in the cooking class that was going on at the same time as my lessons. Especially with my level of Italian not being very high yet. While I could tell that the intentions were nothing but friendly, it was difficult and somewhat embarrassing. On raising the issue with my student advisor it was sorted out.
