Punta Arenas: Author Tour, Photography and Urban Heritage

About this activity

Author tour and photography workshop in Punta Arenas with visual artist Gio Foschino.

Explore the city through my eyes on a walking tour designed for those who seek to deepen their photographic practice and share a critical view of the landscape and historical context of Punta Arenas. In a small group of a maximum of 6 people, I will guide you through the essential urban landmarks—from the neoclassical architecture of the Municipal Cemetery and the heritage of the Croatian Neighborhood to the Estrecho Waterfront, the historic center, and the view of Cerro de la Cruz—while sharing with you my personal approach to composition, framing, and the historical-pictorial reading of Patagonian light.

Open to all types of equipment (from professional cameras to mobile phones)
