Sadarbībā ar Ziemeļvalstu ministru padomes biroju Latvijā, ISSP aicina fotogrāfus pieteikties 2-dienu meistarklasei ar Islandiešu fotogrāfu un foto-redaktoru Pallu Stefansonu (Iceland Review Magazine):
Landscape and manscape: Rīgas nomale
Meistarklase ar Pallu Stefansonu (Iceland Review Magazine)
2 dienas | 2012. gada 20. – 21. aprīlī | Rīgā
Pieteikumi dalībai tiek pieņemti līdz 10.aprīlim
Dalībnieki strādās kopā ar Islandes fotogrāfu, žurnāla Iceland Review redaktoru un attēlu redaktoru Pallu Stefansonu. Pazīstams ar savām lielformāta Islandes ainavām fotogrāfs ir apceļojis teju visu pasauli strādājot pie ilgtermiņa dokumentāliem projektiem- piemēram, “Futbola nākotne” (The Future of Football) un topošo grāmatu “Desmit pasaules vispiesārņotākās vietas” (World’s Ten Most Polluted Places). 2-dienu meistarklase Rīgā un Bolderājā iekļaus iepazīšanos ar pasniedzēja darbiem, tematisko dalībnieku portfolio apskati un vienas dienas izbraucienu ar praktiskiem fotogrāfijas uzdevumiem, kopīgo rezultātu izvērtējumu, un atsauksmēm no pasniedzēja. Meistarklase aptvers ne tikai tradicionālo ainavas fotogrāfiju, bet arī “manscape” (cilvēka veidota ainava), pētot attiecības starp dabu un cilvēka radītām struktūrām, un to vizuālo reprezentāciju.
