Projects

photographs organized into original projects

My photographic projects are a collection of images (from a minimum of 20 to a maximum of 40) organized according to aesthetic criteria or following the guideline of a story.

The photographic typologies are four:

- City and Architecture

- Landscape

- Minimalism and Colors

- Figurative Abstractions

These last two categories, giving the aesthetic affinities, are related together.

The first three categories clearly do not need of explanations.
The fourth is instead an interesting oxymoron to describe a subject captured in its everyday life but transformed, or even distorted by a non common lighting, dense shadows with hard edges or a very close framing which at first glance make it unrecognizable.
Almost an abstraction, precisely.

 

Crete Senesi a landscape floating on the mist

The best part of some mornings in the Crete Senesi landscape when the hills become promontories floating on an ocean of mist

Canarian Architecture in Lanzarote

Lanzarote's pueblos blancos are an extraordinary sampling of Canarian architecture, an urban scenery that we can define cubist and metaphysical at the same time.

Corte Comare in Burano

The terraced houses of the courtyard of Comare make this unique square look like a Flemish beguinage with pediments upon and a large lawn in front of them.

Sunset On Lake Trasimeno

a winter afternoon spent on the lakeshore of San Feliciano sul Trasimeno, the village of glorious sunsets. A photo project by ©andrea bonfanti ph.

Florence appears from Fiesole as in a dream

My Favorite Garfagnana

Traveling through the Serchio Valley from Ponte a Moriano to Minucciano; my favorite Garfagnana in 40 images. Landscapes, villages, traditions poised between Apennines and the Apuan Alps in the North of Tuscany. A photo project by Andrea Bonfanti

Crete Senesi Spring Landscapes

Brooms, poppies, rapeseed in the fields...springtime is finallly all around! A collection of 20 springtime photos shot in the landscape of Crete Senesi, mainly in the municipality of Asciano. A photo project by Andrea Bonfanti

Via San Leonardo a Firenze

Via San Leonardo è la più romantica delle strade fiorentine. Uno stretto, lungo corridoio che inizia fuori porta San Giorgio e arriva dopo circa un chilometro a incrociare lo stradone dei Colli... A photo project by Andrea Bonfanti

Crete Senesi Winter Landscapes

Snow, frost, fog. Cold all around but not in the heart...A collection of 20 winter photos shot in the landscape of Crete Senesi, mainly in the municipality of Asciano. A photo project by Andrea Bonfanti

Metaphysical Florence

This series of black and white photos was taken in Florence, some during lockdown and others simply in the very early morning, and is inspired by metaphysical poetics. A photo project by Andrea Bonfanti

The river Arno in Florence

The river Arno. The historical bridges and the Lungarni. Life on the water today and some abstract reflection. Florence most beautiful skylines. A photographic project by Andrea Bonfanti

the wine windows in Florence

discovering the wine windows walled up on the facades of the old buildings, a real treasure hunt in the center of Florence. A photographic project by Andrea Bonfanti

Crete Senesi

The Crete Senesi landscapes shot through the passing of the seasons. The fascinating sense of eternal transiency of a landscape. A photographic project by Andrea Bonfanti.

The Breathing And The Rhythm Of The Earth

The rhythm of the rolling hills and the illusory breathing of the earth in the Crete Senesi, a lunar landscape just two steps away from Siena. A photo project by Andrea Bonfanti.

The Rhythm Of The Sea

The rhythm of the North Sea is the one marked daily by the comings and goings of the tides. When the sea retracts, slowly, inexorably, the beach stretches as far as the eye can see... Most of the pics here were taken in the village of St. Idesbald (Koksijde beach, Belgium).

More Than Chocolate and Beer

For Brussels, the famous maxim of Heraclitus "Panta rei" is valid; here everything flows, with Belgian slowness, like the river of cars that clog rue Belliard at rush hour. Nothing is really definitive here, so you always come back gladly.

In Florence With Dante

A Florentine journey guided by the terzine of the Divine Comedy. Dante Alighieri himself will acccompany you in the Florence of the Middle Ages. The photographs show on this project are a short list taken from my book "In Florence With Dante" that you can purchase on this site or in the best bookstores in Florence.

The Medieval Fountains of Siena

Discovering and re-discovering the beauty of Siena through the monumental magnificence of its medieval fountains

Viewpoints and Embroideries of Colors

The islands of Lanzarote and Santorini, famous for their glorious sunsets, are captured here in their most intimate and essential aspects where lines, shapes and colors of architectures prevail...

Piazza On Stage

I imagined the Tuscan Piazzas as a great theatrical stage in which the palaces, churches, statues, the passing people too and even their shadows were the unwitting actors of a daily play...

Unusual and Unexpected Florence

Some photographs shot here and there showing an unusual and unexpected Florence with colorful details, chiaroscuro on the walls and some strange abstract reflections...
