On September 8, 1504, Michelangelo unveiled his David. The 17-foot statue, carved out of neglected marble by a 26-year-old, was placed in the square outside of Florence’s town hall, where it quickly symbolized several things: a political statement on civil liberties against the ruling class; a technical milestone unmatched since antiquity; a spiritual narrative from the Hebrew Bible about a boy moments away from slaying a giant. 500 years later, the founders of this studio met through studying in Florence. Inspired by the Renaissance trade guilds and humanism’s integrated mind, body, and spirit, a studio formed in the spirit of 1504. Italy would go on to host its first storytelling workshop and series commission. Today, the studio is differentiated by its method of blending art, experience design, and commercial practice. But within this alchemy, there is always room left for the mystery of story that no process can contain. 1504 is based but not biased in The South, the front lines of many complex issues facing America, where it draws inspiration from the rural landscape, traditions, and a strong presence of chefs and ghosts.-Contact us at info@1504.co
