Abgesagt – Fotogrüsse aus Tschiertschen – Fotografie-Workshop

Course Announcement
Unfortunately, the workshop will not take place. A postponement is ev. possible.

The workshop is suitable for photography beginners as well as advanced photographers.

In the sunny mountain village of Tschiertschen, you will not only find a far-reaching view of the surrounding mountain panorama. The focus of the photography workshop is on the unagitated but lively village itself. Participants explore the village through the photo camera. No matter which camera; whether digital or analogue, compact, SLR or smartphone camera - the photographer takes the picture.
What they all have in common is mindful, consciously creative photography.

In a decelerating mountain backdrop, the workshop makes it possible to sharpen the photographic eye. The experience of a room-filling camera obscura and the opportunity to photograph with a self-made pinhole camera create a deeper understanding of how photography works and make the magic of early photography tangible.
The workshop includes assistance with image composition and photographic technology and offers the opportunity to take into account the individual needs of the participants.

Tschiertschen, a wonderful mountain village, surprises with tanned wooden houses. They line the alleys of the village center. The landscape surrounding the village is characterized by agriculture and gentle tourism.

As part of the open-air art exhibition "BEAUX LOSANGES BÜEL", works of art are mixed with the local village scenery and enter into a dialogue with the place. Unique interstices are created that invite photographic exploration in order to tell new stories.

If possible and willing of the participants, the workshop will result in a series of postcards showing Tschiertschen in a new light and with unusual views.
