Description:
Organic foods have become a familiar site on both restaurant menus and supermarket shelves. But what does organic agriculture actually imply? Well, many things: respect for a farms unique environment and the absence of pesticides; coordination of farming elements and the rejuvenation of fields compromised by intensive agriculture; and new techniques that permit productivity, quality, and profitability, while respecting stringent legislative regulations. We explore organic agriculture from the perspective of business management, agronomy, as well as history, culture and ethics. Students also experience the process firsthand through participation in seasonal activities at local farms and facilities, including horticultural work in the spring and olive harvesting and pressing in fall. Course meets for 45 hours in fall, 60 hours in summer, and 90 hours in spring.

What does it mean to act in front of a camera? Why do dramatic gestures that work on stage appear far too pronounced for the screen? Acting for the camera requires a specific approach to performance that must be aligned with the understanding of the technical process of creating moving images. This course aims to foster students' creative potential by promoting experiential learning through the awareness of the cinematic language as well as their active role as entertainers in scripted scenarios for film media. Through workshops and the presentation of various acting methods and the comprehension of technical perspectives such as camera work, scene planning, and post-production editing, the course will collaborate directly with Filmmaking courses at LdM.

Description:
How does an actor communicate in front of a camera that is different than acting on stage? An actor needs to know where to go within themselves to bring forth the truth of their intentions. Energy dictates their vocal volume, physicalization, and subtleties in performance. Combining the technical aspects of filming with personal action-driven choices ultimately leads to cinematic magic that affects an audience. This course provides a way of working personally and creatively in front of a lens. Understanding how to act and react through improvisation exercises thus establishes the focus and concentration necessary to reduce self-consciousness. This course incorporates text from on-camera scenes and scripts, learning how to slate, audition, self-tape, and perform a role. Script analysis and breaking down individual scenes to score ones part. Experiential participation with the use of a (cell) camera setup, lighting, angles, and basic on-set language. The class uses the exercises created and developed by Sanford Meisner that led many actors who trained with him to perform Academy Award-winning roles.

Description:
Opera and film have had a close relationship since the beginning of cinema. This course explores the collision and cross-pollination of two dramatic art forms, uncovering the cinematic in opera and the operatic in cinema. The birth of opera in Florence over five hundred years ago and its rapid rise to popularity in the country and the rest of Europe cemented Italys reputation as the home of the art of extravagant spectacle. It is only natural that the birthplace of one of the early-modern periods most important cultural innovations should have embraced cinema, the 20th centurys signature dramatic art form with such panache and enthusiasm, rising to become a leading nation in filmmaking. Students embark on an audiovisual exploration of the most emblematic operas and their adaptations for the screen by famous directors. The course includes live musical demonstrations, an opera film at the cinema, a live opera at the theater, and a visit to the Zeffirelli Museum.

Topics include theories of screenwriting, structure and development (scenes, sequences, acts), style, format, writing with images, plot analysis, and character construction. Students then develop a subject of their choice into a roughly 20-page screenplay, inspired by their experiences in Italy, a story, or another source. Their original concept is articulated first into a coherent outline (a detailed summary of the scenes and main events), then transformed into a solid, formal screenplay based on a three-act structure.

Therefore I pray you, gentle father dear, to teach me what love is. Dantes plea to Vergil in the Divine Comedy engaged some of the brightest minds in late medieval Europe: natural philosophers, theologians, poets. And the Florentine poets spiritual and sentimental journey has never ceased to inspire his fellow artists. We begin by examining the Comedys classical sources (particularly Ovids Metamorphoses, Art of Love, and Remedies of Love) and Andreas Capellanuss bestselling twelfth-century love manual. Then we dive into Dantes magnum opus itself, familiarizing ourselves with the most significant characters and passages throughout the text. Finally, we explore how this medieval masterpiece has inspired a whole series of works in the figurative arts, music, TV, and film.

Description:
Expand your artistic portfolio by combining traditional and digital media. In drawing sessions in the historic center of Florence, we explore fundamental drawing concepts and techniques: creating three-dimensional space through the use of linear perspective and construction of complex forms using simple volumes, drawing the sculpted and live human figure, and creating balanced and interesting compositions. Then we discuss how to create drawings suitable for digitalization. In the lab sessions, students learn to scan selected drawings and paint them with Photoshop, accumulating know-how crucial for both traditional and digital painting.

How is color used to construct space in a painting, and why is it such an important element in design? How do space and color contribute to expressing the painted subject? Why and how did early Christian artists use mosaic? How can an understanding of space, color, form and material be used to communicate spiritual themes effectively? We explore the answers to these and other questions through the experience of painting against the backdrop of the beautiful town of Tuscania and the surrounding countryside. Students are guided and stimulated to engage in visual research that contributes new insights to their own pictorial language. Includes a series of visits (once every two weeks) to medieval churches and other historic sites in and around Tuscania for painting, which students then complete in the studio under the instructors guidance.

Description:
Art installation and assemblage are among the most original and fertile forms of contemporary art. They involve designing works for spaces, not necessarily strictly artistic, in which the activation of the place of the artistic intervention is strongly linked to the rules of visual perception and the impact these have on the way human beings experience a place. The art of installation and assemblage extend the practice area from the studio to the outdoor space. This course enables students to study the basics of three-dimensional work, assemblage, installation and environmental art. It introduces the skills, processes, concepts, and visual language that will support them in future creative work. Students will work on a series of projects designed to raise critical awareness, interpretative skills and research methods to improve their practice. The coursework will investigate the objective and subjective qualities of space, material and form and the meanings created through their juxtaposition. Students will design and create indoor and outdoor installations and assemblage pieces that can incorporate sculptural elements, everyday objects, light, sound or other devices.

Through a series of projects, students develop the skills and methodology required for portrait painting: observational analysis, proportion, capturing a likeness, composition, and color mixing. Studio practice is explored, including lighting, designing an effective pose, setting up the model, and perspective. Both historical and modern approaches are addressed with an emphasis on exploring the psychological and expressive capacity of the human face. Drawing and painting exercises include the study of expressions and facial anatomy. In addition to painting models from life, students also create a self-portrait.

Acting for the camera requires a specific approach to performance that must be aligned with the understanding of the technical process of creating moving images. This course aims to foster students' creative potential by promoting experiential learning through the awareness of the cinematic language as well as their active role as entertainers in scripted scenarios for film media. Through workshops and the presentation of various acting methods and the comprehension of technical perspectives such as camera work, scene planning, and post-production editing, the course will collaborate directly with Filmmaking courses at LdM.

Description:
How does an actor communicate in front of a camera that is different than acting on stage? An actor needs to know where to go within themselves to bring forth the truth of their intentions. Energy dictates their vocal volume, physicalization, and subtleties in performance. Combining the technical aspects of filming with personal action-driven choices ultimately leads to cinematic magic that affects an audience. This course provides a way of working personally and creatively in front of a lens. Understanding how to act and react through improvisation exercises thus establishes the focus and concentration necessary to reduce self-consciousness. This course incorporates text from on-camera scenes and scripts, learning how to slate, audition, self-tape, and perform a role. Script analysis and breaking down individual scenes to score ones part. Experiential participation with the use of a (cell) camera setup, lighting, angles, and basic on-set language. The class uses the exercises created and developed by Sanford Meisner that led many actors who trained with him to perform Academy Award-winning roles.

The birth of opera in Florence over five hundred years ago and its rapid rise to popularity in the country and the rest of Europe cemented Italys reputation as the home of the art of extravagant spectacle. It is only natural that the birthplace of one of the early-modern periods most important cultural innovations should have embraced cinema, the 20th centurys signature dramatic art form with such panache and enthusiasm, rising to become a leading nation in filmmaking. Students embark on an audiovisual exploration of the most emblematic operas and their adaptations for the screen by famous directors. The course includes live musical demonstrations, an opera film at the cinema, a live opera at the theater, and a visit to the Zeffirelli Museum.

Dance has been understood as the expression of the primordial language of the universe in many spiritual traditions, a means of reaching trance states and communing with the divine. Anthropologists have noted that dance has been used as a spiritual practice in many cultures. The course introduces students to the aesthetics of the body in the performing arts and the idea of dance as a spiritual practice in Western classical ballet and bharatan yama form of Indian classical dance from Tamil Nadu. In this course, these forms are the mediums by which students explore dance as a spiritual and aesthetic practice by exercising both their minds and their bodies. A wide range of visual materials, including photographs, documentaries, and live performances, are used to compare and contrast the aesthetics of these two classical dance traditions as students discover the deep artistic and spiritual intentions that they share.

Description:
By studying the medium of photography, both from a theoretical and from a practical/technical point of view, this course traces the history of Italy and the iconic images that have been created to represent significant national events, cultural movements, and political eras, enabling the students to observe the country's present as a witness as well. Coursework involves the research and study of particular photographs both from an aesthetic point of view as well as its relation to a specific historical period. Through guided field trips, students will visit important venues and exhibitions of interest, in addition to important cultural sites in the city of Florence. By learning to deconstruct images and relating the information in a larger context, students will develop their ability to analyze imagery and apply photographic language to further understand the evolution of Italian society. In addition to the theoretical phase, the course will have an important practical part, during which students will learn how the camera works (exposure, depth of field, composition, editing basics). The technical side will be particularly instrumental in the realization of a series of projects. Through a series of assignments (weekly visual journals, Midterm, and Final project), linked to the topics, the students will in fact learn to read and document traces of the past in the present and understand causal links often taken for granted.

Description:
Presentation, not just preparation, is key to a memorable culinary experience. This course examines how food and beverages can be styled, capturing their essence in photography through accomplished technical and compositional control. Students develop their creativity in a field with concrete, practical applications. In the lab, students process, develop, and print photographs, learning to use Photoshop tools particularly useful in food photography. The course focuses on lighting techniques, how to compose and create appealing settings, and the art of visual storytelling. Students also receive a firm grounding in the key theoretical elements of food design with visual and stylistic analysis. The course includes guest speakers (including a professional food stylist and a chef) and field trips to a selected restaurant and other culinary venues. Note: Each student must have a DSLR camera with a manual setting and at least one lens.

An introduction to the techniques of black-and-white printmaking: etchings (hard and soft ground, aquatint, sugar lift, dry point, pastel, spit bite and mixed media), woodcuts, and linoleum cuts. We explore and implement the art and techniques of designing on and printing from metal plates, wood panels, linoleum and other matrices. What is the history of this unique form of visual communication, both in Italy and in the rest of Europe since the Renaissance? What role did prints play in the social, political and intellectual history of Europe? We analyze works in these media by Mantegna, Pollaiuolo, Parmigianino, Rembrandt, and Goya, as well as more modern artists such as De Chirico, Carrà, Picasso, Munch and Seurat.

Learn the techniques and visual possibilities of black-and-white and color etching: intaglio, aquatints, soft ground, super aquatint, and photo etching. We develop the skills to manage both the preparation of the original matrix and the printing process that allows the engraved image to be reproduced. Students employ their knowledge to create prints in a variety of subject matter: creative interpretations of the human figure, still lifes, landscapes, and abstract and geometric structures. They hone their command of form, value, line and composition and their general ability to express themselves creatively, stimulated by instructor prompts aimed at developing a wide range of artistic skills. Florences extraordinary artistic and architectural heritage provides a unique backdrop and endless material for inspiration and analysis.

How have architectural style and city planning changed, as revealed in Florences buildings, city walls, streets and squares? What was the relationship of the citys physical growth to its exceptional economic, cultural, and artistic ascent in its historical prime, and to developments in the rest of Europe generally? Numerous site visits allow students to compare historical and scholarly sources with the physical evidence, and learn to read the stylistic as well as the material and socio-cultural histories of buildings and spaces.

An introduction to the tools and methods for understanding and recognizing choices and style in architectural design, in both interior and exterior settings. We explore the work of the 19th and early 20th-century masters (up to c. 1960) who expressed their talents and aesthetic vision from the small scale of objects and interiors to the grand ideas of entire buildings, neighborhoods and cities. Given the close relationship between interior design, object design and architecture, we examine the history of these three fields beginning with the Industrial Revolution. How did politics, economics and scientific and technological discoveries impact society, art, and architecture? What drove innovation in materials and aesthetics in the past, and how has this process changed in todays world?

How have politics, economics, and scientific and technological discoveries impacted society, art, and architecture? What forces have driven innovation in materials and aesthetics in the past? How has design changed the world? This course is an introduction to the tools and methods for understanding and recognizing choices and styles in architectural design in both interior and exterior settings. Students explore the work of the 19th and early 20th-century masters (up to c. 1960) who expressed their talents and aesthetic vision from the small scale of objects and interiors to the grand ideas underlying entire buildings, neighborhoods, and cities. Given the close relationship between interior design, object design, and architecture, students examine the history of these three fields, beginning with the Industrial Revolution.

Description:
How the concepts and methods of aesthetic theory (the investigation of what makes something a work of art) apply to the field of design (products, interiors, architecture, graphics). How do new forms of design come about, how is value attributed to them, and what governs the ways we experience them? Is design a form of art? We explore the meanings of formalism and expressionism, the cultural, social and political influences on design, and the unique evolution of design in Italy, from its Renaissance heritage to the decades that made it internationally famous (1960s-80s). How does the Italian design experience compare with its modern and contemporary counterparts abroad? Florences extraordinary visual design tradition forms an ideal backdrop to our intellectual investigation.

Sustainability is also a question of architecture. Designing buildings with locally-sourced materials, and that are energy efficient and use renewable fuel sources, helps combat global warming and pollution and aids regional economies on a daily basis. We explore the sustainable solutions of yesterday, today and tomorrow for making buildings as self-sufficient and cost-effective as possible while rendering highly-polluting fossil fuels obsolete. How do we reduce our energy needs? How can renewable energy sources (such as solar, wind, geothermic, hydroelectric or biomass-based power) be integrated into architectural solutions and made affordable for families and companies? Other topics include traditional strategies for creating a pleasant home or environment in adverse climactic conditions, and alternative sustainable lifestyle solutions such as cohabitation and coworking.

How the concepts and methods of aesthetic theory (the investigation of what makes something a work of art) apply to the field of design (products, interiors, architecture, graphics). How do new forms of design come about, how is value attributed to them, and what governs the ways we experience them? Is design a form of art? We explore the meanings of formalism and expressionism, the cultural, social and political influences on design, and the unique evolution of design in Italy, from its Renaissance heritage to the decades that made it internationally famous (1960s-80s). How does the Italian design experience compare with its modern and contemporary counterparts abroad? Florences extraordinary visual design tradition forms an ideal backdrop to our intellectual investigation.

This course covers the basics of three-dimensional drawing and solid modeling following the BIM logic (Building Information Modelling). Students acquire the essential tools for analyzing and presenting design concepts in three-dimensional form while familiarizing themselves with the methods and materials of model construction. BIM allows centralized control of the project drawing, managing in a unified way both the 3-D modelling and the 2-D representation of the project. Topics include solid composition and modeling, 3-D orthographic views, perspectives, shading and rendering, management of lighting and materials, and multiple representations of a single object or space. The objective is to use solid modeling not only as a method of representation but in order to control and verify the creative process, developing students capabilities of visualizing and designing interiors.

Italian cuisine is the sum of the contributions of various regional culinary traditions which, despite standardizing trends, have managed to maintain unique flavors and ingredients. We explore the diversity of Italys culinary microcultures, with a particular focus on the social and historical context in which these dishes and cooking practices have evolved, and the particular local geographical and environmental conditions that make them unique. How does food relate to local customs and lifestyle? How can these local particularities best be preserved and promoted, becoming true resources of the territory?

Description:
Located between Rome, Tuscany, and Umbria, Tuscania has been a geographical and cultural crossroads for millennia, a position that is reflected in its local cuisine. In this hyperlocal market where there is an intimate relationship between agriculture and cuisine, farm to table, local, and simple cooking are more than mere buzzwords: they reveal a unique perspective and the resourcefulness inspired by a territorys resources as well as by its limitations. We explore how local traditions came about and were consolidated, engaging directly with the areas recipes and ingredients. Then we take a step back and examine how local practices, representative of central Italian cuisine, are connected to broader questions of modern Italian cuisine, society, identity, and history.

We explore the distinct traditions and economic, geographic and climatic features of the most prestigious Italian wine producing areas. Students familiarize themselves with grape varieties, winemaking techniques, and the various regional and national classification systems. Includes experience with organoleptic analyses (visual, olfactory and gustative) of a series of representative wines to help develop enological vocabulary and tasting skills, and the foundations of effective wine and food pairings.

You may be what you eat, but why do you eat the way you do? Why do people make different food choices in their daily lives? What makes certain social classes avoid or value certain types of foods? Food is an important factor in how we define ourselves: peoples attitude toward it can reveal not just personal characteristics, but a broader food ideology. We explore the relationships between foods multiple meanings and the physical acts of cooking and eating, and how food influences personal and group identity. The role of food in constructing ethnic identity, displaying religious beliefs and negotiating gender roles, and foods ability to transmit and preserve cultures and values.

Description:
Vegetarianism and veganism as diets and cultural practices. Vegetarianism has been a part of many cultures both ancient and modern, but it underwent a decided jump in popularity in conjunction with the increasing attention to the benefits of a healthy diet in the 19th century. We explore how deciding to become a vegetarian or vegan can arise from health reasons, beliefs about the realities of food production and animal welfare, or the desire to promote a more sustainable world. Students read and discuss professional nutritional studies concerning these two lifestyle choices and debate the pros and cons of each. They also learn to prepare dishes appropriate for both types of diets, honing their cooking skills and expanding their culinary horizons

The aim is to nuance students understanding of nutrition by focusing on Italian home-style cooking as an example of the Mediterranean model of eating. Students discover how Italian cultural attitudes and food habits are at the root of many positive health outcomes and learn about the principles governing the regulation of protected origin ingredients in the EU and Italy. The course may include visits to local producers. Hands-on kitchen experience teaches students how fresh ingredients can be used to make balanced meals.

The aim is to nuance students understanding of nutrition by focusing on Italian home-style cooking as an example of the Mediterranean model of eating. Students discover how Italian cultural attitudes and food habits are at the root of many positive health outcomes and learn about the principles governing the regulation of protected origin ingredients in the EU and Italy. The course may include visits to local producers. Hands-on kitchen experience teaches students how fresh ingredients can be used to make balanced meals.
