Aimed at those interested in photography, architecture and art, this course explores the practical and creative interplay between photographic practice and theory in the field of visual representations of architecture and urban space. It aims to encourage an innovative approach to architectural and urban photography by adopting a critical approach to the way we perceive, relate and respond to the physical realm of architecture. The course is taught through a series of discussion-based seminars and practical photographic classes. During the course you will produce a professional artistic portfolio based on digital presentation as for example Power Point, PDF or photographic prints. Two practical issues are central to the workshops. The first is practice-based, where you will also gain a better understanding of theoretical approaches to contemporary photography and to challenge concepts and practices of representing space. The second is to develop individual photographic projects of a designated public cultural building. You will depict the building's interior space and exterior form in daylight conditions and at night with the building's own artificial lighting. The final day is devoted to a feedback seminar during which students will present critical discussions of their portfolio and the concepts they have worked with.
