I’m a photographer born in Florence, Italy, were I still live. I started casually, to press a camera button of Kodak Istant around 18/20 years old. Only around 24th I really understood the meaning of “photography” and this is due to Loris, a good photographer and a very good job colleague. He used to do mostly black/white and printed by himself in the dark-room and taught me everything about it. From 1980 to 1984 I organize 5 National Photographic Contests and in the meantime, in co-operation with the City GovernmentI adjourne the public Archive with fresh photos of the Territory and make a search of "War Memorials" in our Town Territory with photo-exhibitions.I also executed a reportage on the Irpinia earthquake. Going back to my own photos, I’ve been very lucky in those days as in only 4 years of FIAF contests (81-84) I had 191 entries (176 for black/white photos) that consented me to have a “FIAF STAR”. I won many National and International prizes and had photos shown in Hong-Kong, Singapore, Durban, France and England; some photos published on FIAF year book in the 1982, 83, 84 and 85, on the World SICOF year book in 1982 and on the magazines “Fotografare” and “Reflex” in more than an occasion. At the end of 1984 I had to give up; for personal reasons I didn’t have the time for photos or contest organizations, but those years remained in my heart as an important occasion of knowledge of different people and Countries. In December 2004 I really passed through a very difficult moment of my life but, luckily, I discovered my old analogic camera and with a new digital one I started again the adventure! September 2005 saw my photos in National Contests again! The 2006/2007/2008 Photographic Contests gave me the opportunity to be classified in the first positions of “FIAF contests” in Italy and to win some International ’ones: The Al-Thani Award 2006 in Qatar, The Trierenberg Super Circuit 2007 in Austria, the 12th International Exibition in Lishui-China and the Photovernissage 2007 in Rivne-Ukraine. In 2008 confirmations about my works came with International prizes in contests like: Aqueducte and Reus in Spain, Algarve in Portugal, again Photovernissage in Ukraine, Pistoia, Tour delle Colline and Garbagnate in Italy, making me the most prize-winner Italian photographer in International Contests with 12 different prizes. Many photos are published by national and international catalogues and photo-magazines in Italy and abroad; some works are into the International Museum of Photography in Cerdanyola del Valles (Barcelona Spain). In March 2008, I received honour AFIAP “ARTISTE de la FEDERATION INTERNATIONALE de l’ ART PHOTOGRAPHIQUE. In May of the same year, I took part with the Italian Team , at the "29th Biennial Black & White World Cup" in Slovakia and in that occasion I won the Bronze Medal as individual prize. In August 2009 I'm part of the Italian representative who winn the Gold Medal at the "25th Biennial projected images World Cup" in Indonesia. In January 2010 I receive honour EFIAP “ EXCELLENCE de la FEDERATION INTERNATIONALE de l ’ART PHOTOGRAPHIQUE " - For complete biography  look here - www.perinivalerio.it
