The Photography between Story and Landscape Research

Abstract

The concept of landscape, promoted by the European Landscape Convention (Florence, 2000), brings significant innovations from both a theoretical point of view and operational actions, methods and policies to be taken, in order to implement the Convention itself. These innovations require integration and disclose new intervention areas for different disciplines among which there is also photography. It may represent a useful tool for not only reading and interpreting the landscape but also for thinking and planning it, discussing about places and approaching inhabitants to their day-to-day landscape. We refer to photography as related to the social sciences. However, it maintains its own specificity for helping to interpret both the material and immaterial component of landscape connected to perception
