GUIDO
Cozzi
Photographer since 1987. To take the photographs I wanted to take, I travelled millions of miles across five continents, slept in two thousand different places, and experienced two thousand different mornings. The images are visual ideas to spark a flash in the eyes and mind of the viewer, generating new ideas. I have created hundreds of photographic services of geographical, ethnographic and touristic nature for specialized publishers. I founded Atlantide Phototravel, an agency specialized in travel reportage and Tethys Gallery, a small and dynamic Florentine gallery. Today I alternate between photographic campaigns for major international archives and the production of photographic books and services for the corporate sector.
JACOPO
Santini
After humanistic studies, since 1998 I have been working in the field of archaeological photography at the Soprintendenza Archeologica di Firenze. Active since the mid-90s in the field of documentary photography, I began to publish and exhibit my work in galleries, festivals and cultural institutions in Italy, Europe and the United States. Since 2004 I have been teaching, as well as for other U.S. university programs, at SACI, a university-level U.S. Academy of Art based in New York and Florence, as a lecturer in photography, co-director of the two-year Master of Photography program, and director of the program dedicated to the Venice Biennale of Art and Architecture. Since 2018 I have been teaching for the Leica Akademie in Florence.
MAURIZIO
Papucci
Journalist and professional photographer, I have traveled the world as a photo reporter publishing in periodicals and for personal exhibitions.
I am a hiking environmental guide and I have been part of the National Alpine Rescue Corps; mountaineering instructor of the CAI schools I have been able to photograph and get to know the remote corners of the most beautiful mountains in Europe.
For years I have been dedicating a lot of time to photographing the Apuan Alps, walking both the alpine routes as well as the traditional trails and still they surprise me and reveal new faces; in 2017 I published Apuane, a black and white look at these sublime waves of stone.
MICHAEL
Gaddini
For years I have been constantly researching the landscape and the human figure through my work using the digital art of videomaking to express myself and communicate.
I undertook studies on photography and visual perception and how to analyse and understand the aspects behind photographic art.
This led me to photograph outdoors in nature, using natural light, with a personal and spontaneous style.
I discovered a new vocation, that of the Naturalistic Hiking Guide, a perfect combination between Location Shooting and Environmental Disclosure.
