Paolo Woods

Paolo Woods is well-known as press photographer, artist and co-author of many documentary books. His course, taking place at Alte Saline Hallein from 22 July to 10 August, will deal with the language of photography. The aim is to learn how to recognise and narrate stories and how to translate them into that language. In 2010, Woods completed the project Walk on my Eyes, an intimate portrait of Iranian society. The accompanying show premièred at the Festival of Arles (FR) and is currently touring worldwide. His work is also included in the forthcoming exhibition The eye is a lonely hunter – images of humankind at Fotogalleriet in Oslo, that shows a new selection of works from the 4th Fotofestival Mannheim Ludwigshafen Heidelberg.
