Experiences
Roman Walks magazine was designed by the creative Ca’ Art Studio founded in 2017 by Gabriel Rifilato in collaboration with the visual artist Floriana Cason. The magazine following the footsteps of the American publication-partner Shots created by Douglas Beasley, expresses itself through a “creative photography” that doesn’t consider “brands and models” of cameras, “application and filters”, “analog and digital”, but that photographic vision that uses machines and technology the way a painter uses a paintbrush: to create meaning and stories behind images, fascination, depth, and magic.
Beyond the Image Factory artists, the editorial team of Roman Walks consists of:
– Art historians
– Cinema critics
– Journalists, experts in the domain of fashion, visual arts and trends.
– Professional photographers
– Translators and Interpreters
– Graphic artists and designers
– Social media strategists
– Tour guides:
