About the Book

English summary: This is a catalog of the exhibition held at the Accademia delle Arti del Disegno in Florence from October 3th to 29th, 2009. "Florence by Cy DeCosse is dedicated to the city of Florence and to the friends, artists and artisans that make this city a beacon of art and culture. For over fifty years Florence has been a muse to me. When I first arrived in Florence as a Fulbright student in 1954, the city was war-damaged, with bullet holes in walls and bridges destroyed, but with an unbroken spirit. Even as the Florentines struggled to provide daily necessities, they applauded Aida in the Boboli Gardens and rebuilt the Trinita Bridge stone by stone. I began my study of photography at the Institute of Art at Porta Romana with Maestro Renzo Maggini. From him I learned principles that still guide my work today. Since my student days, I have returned again and again to this city of art to draw inspiration from the creativity and craftsmanship which is everywhere in Florence." (Cy DeCosse). Italian and English text. Italian description: Catalogo della mostra fotografica allestita a Firenze presso la Sala Esposizioni dell'Accademia delle Arti del Disegno dal 3 al 29 ottobre 2009. Florence by Cy DeCosse e dedicata alla citta di Firenze e agli amici, artisti e artigiani che hanno reso questa citta un faro dell'arte e della cultura. Per piu di cinquant'anni Firenze e stata la mia musa. Quando sono arrivato a Firenze per la prima volta, nel 1954, avendo ricevuto una borsa di studio Fulbright, la citta era stata danneggiata dalla guerra. Le mura erano sforacchiate dai proiettili e i ponti erano stati fatti saltare in aria, ma lo spirito della citta era intatto. I fiorentini lottavano per sfamarsi e coprirsi, ma applaudivano pure l' Aida nel Giardino di Boboli e ricostruirono il Ponte di Santa Trinita pietra su pietra. Iniziai i miei studi di fotografia all'Istituto d'Arte di Porta Romana con il Maestro Renzo Maggini, il quale mi insegno i principii che ancora oggi mi guidano nel mio lavoro di fotografo. Da allora, dai miei giorni di studente, sono ritornato molte volte in questa citta d'arte per trarre ispirazione dalla creativita e dalla qualita della lavorazione artigianale che si trovano ovunque a Firenze, (Cy DeCosse).
