more information

Can language be a political act? An encounter in which body and word become instruments of a shared research.

The feminist irony and expressive freedom of Mirella Bentivoglio and Elena Bellantoni connect with the poetry of Laura Cingolani, shedding light on different ways of using language and the word as critical and political tools for reading the present.

Sorte dell’ironia (The Fate of Irony), curated by Andrea Cortellessa, brings together poets and writers with visual artists of old and new generations, in a dialogue that weaves different languages together, creating a web in which artistic expressions influence and complete one another.
