**“*Me interesa lo que sucede cuando no sé qué va a pasar.”*** **Marina Abramović** En este taller hablamos en imágenes. A partir de ejercicios guiados, textos, recortes y composición visual, investigamos la relación entre palabra, imagen y metáfora, en la construcción de una poética personal. A lo largo de cuatro encuentros, el recorrido del taller aborda distintos momentos del proceso creativo: 1. La sincronicidad: el vínculo entre azar y creación. 2. La inspiración: el diálogo con el mundo como motor creativo. 3. El corte: gesto central del collage y acto de decisión. 4. La intuición: como forma de lectura y elección. Valor El taller se desarrolla en cuatro encuentros, con un valor de 25 euros por clase. Incluye todos los materiales necesarios. Quienes lo deseen pueden traer imágenes, recortes o textos propios para incorporarlos a su recorrido personal. **Nos encontramos cada sábado de febrero por la tarde (7, 14, 21 y 28) en la librería Mandolina (Madrid), se requiere inscripción previa a mvmaglioco@gmail.com**

ENGLISH (Spanish below! PS, please let me know if you cannot view the event pricing!) * First, we will meet, greet and go over the route map and objectives for about 15 minutes. There will be a basic talk about things to look for and specific things to shoot for each objective. * We will go over the map and then spend time walking the route stopping and shooting in each area. We will be walking for a total of about 2-2.5 hours. The main focus of the workshop is to learn about and gain more confidence shooting street photography with the bonus of exploring and seeing some interesting spots around Barcelona. * Once we're finished the route we will meet at a cafe (if we want!) to speak about the objectives, answer any questions and close with any comments or remarks. * In total we will spend about 2.5 hours in this street photography workshop. Other things to note * You should know the basics of photography and how your camera works. We'll discuss street photography techniques, not learning how to use cameras. * Bring the min amount of things required for a few hours of shooting. (ie. camera and a few € for food etc, thieves are a real problem everywhere). * PLEASE BRING >> POSITIVE VIBES :) *** ESPAÑOL * En primer lugar, nos reuniremos, saludaremos y repasaremos el mapa de la ruta y los objetivos durante unos 15 minutos. Habrá una charla básica sobre las cosas que hay que buscar y las cosas específicas que hay que fotografiar para cada objetivo. * Repasaremos el mapa y luego pasaremos un tiempo caminando por la ruta parando y disparando en cada zona. Caminaremos durante un total de 2-2,5 horas. El objetivo principal del taller es aprender y ganar más confianza en la fotografía de calle con la ventaja de explorar y ver algunos puntos interesantes alrededor de Barcelona. * Una vez terminada la ruta nos reuniremos en una cafetería (¡si queremos!) para hablar de los objetivos, responder a cualquier pregunta y cerrar con cualquier comentario u observación. * En total dedicaremos unas 2.5 horas a este taller de fotografía de calle. Otras cosas a tener en cuenta * Debes conocer los fundamentos de la fotografía y el funcionamiento de tu cámara. Hablaremos de técnicas de fotografía callejera, no de aprender a usar las cámaras. * Trae la cantidad mínima de cosas necesarias para unas horas de fotografía. (es decir, cámara y algunos euros para comida, etc., los ladrones son un verdadero problema en todas partes). * ¡¡POR FAVOR TRAIGA >> VIBRAS POSITIVAS :) NOTA: ¡Mi español es tan, tan, no increíble pero puedo explicar las cosas en español si es necesario! :) (Note: My Spanish is so so, not amazing but I would be happy to explain things in Spanish if needed!)
