MAXXI Piazza – admittance free subject to availability of places
myMAXXI cardholders may reserve places by writing to mymaxxi@fondazionemaxxi.it by the day before the event (10 places available)
Three events alternating poems and essays, critical interventions and reflections, based on the works on show in the MAXXI piazza.
Philosophers and writers, academics and poets analyse the creative idioms of the XX century and contemporaneity
In the first event the ways in which the tradition of thought and experimentation in poetry reach a fertile meeting point, while originating from what are considered to be discrete areas.
The discussion takes its cue from the grandiose installation by Elisabetta Benassi, Mareo Merz – the fishing boat that has caught a car – which “leads us to discover that which time has sedimented in things, not just visible traces of the processes of transformation of matter, but the spirit of things given to them by those who have possessed them or simply experienced them for brief periods”.
