prism magazine | let the light in


We are proud to announce that prism Photography Magazine – newly born international magazine entirely dedicated to contemporary fine art photography – will hit the digital shelves on the 1st of July 2011 in tandem with PhotoIreland 2011 Festival.

The idea behind prism is to bring the true meaning of photographic medium back to its prestigious place and to create a platform where art can truly be seen, contemplated and discussed.

prism acts just like its optical prototype, letting all kinds of photographic genres to permeate its surface, get refracted, enter a new medium at a different angle and amuse the viewer with the palette of its constituent spectral colours.

photo workshop #2 @ MadArt

STUDIO PHOTOGRAPHY + PHOTO EDITING 
complex workshops

two-days photography workshop @ MadArt with Karol Liver

the course is a fantastic opportunity for all students, both those who have just started their adventure with photography and those who already have had some experience in this field. participants will learn how to operate in studio space, how to approach a model in order to achieve the very unique portraiture experience. our workshops are not only limited to one genre of models and will give students a chance to work with variety of people who all have one thing in common – they work professionally in front of lens: fashion models, alternative models, theatre actors.

the main task is to give students a chance to explore practical, creative ways of using studio space and model's crucial attributes.

more info here and there! :)
