Fotografia ed educazione estetica: l’attenzione dello sguardo

In the incessant movement of lives that intertwine in search of rays of light toward which to lean in order to grow, beauty stands out, as a horizon and as a direction of meaning, the bearer of immaterial values that revolve around the typically human capacity to experience beauty as another, spiritual, silent dimension of existence. The different and urgent expressions of fragility and distress invite the redefinition of an aesthetic way of measuring oneself with life and the helping relationship, making beauty the unifying root of our Dasein in relationship. To this end, it is intended to promote a form of aesthetic education that, starting from the urban flânerie, can foster the recovery of beauty in its natural and contemplative aura, acquiring an artistic gaze by means of photography, a tool with great introspective and aesthetic potential, which allows us to learn that unique form of art that is drawn with light.
