Everytopia in the here and now

with Jerszy Seymour

An artist working in Berlin, journeying through design, performance, and theatrical events, in love with total, non-totalitarian art.

A New Creation by Compagnia Tiziana Arnaboldi

AUTOUR DU CORPS A Bauhaus Tribute

A cosmic trip, in dialogue with the earth, where everything revolves around a body dressed in nine concentric circles, pulsating and breathing: a special skirt, which takes us on a dreamlike and hypnotic trip based on shapes, bodies, balance and imbalance, as well as heaviness and breath, in an allegory of our human condition.

Yoga classes with Lisa Ferretti

Mo: 9am - 10.30am | We: 7pm - 8.30pm

First class (1 July, 7pm - 8.30pm)

Lisa encountered yoga at 19; impressed by the immediacy of the benefits of this practice, both physically and mentally, she knew it would always be a part of her life from then onwards.

In her classes, Lisa invites people to nurture and improve perception of their body, to have a better knowledge of its internal pathways, and discover its fascinating geometries. Let her lead you through a series of exercises aimed at rediscovering your mental and physical centre and relaxing your nervous system. One hour of physical practice followed by breathing and meditation exercises.

Meeting with philosopher Fabio Merlini

Audience of max. 25 people

Living in a world dominated by immediacy leads to an experience of acceleration, which extends to almost all of our activities.

The pandemic emergency, for some people, has meant slowing down their life rhythms, experiencing an unprecedented gift of time compared to normal: within the tragedy, an unexpected opportunity to reconnect with one's own inner life.

The events will take place in full compliance with safety regulations.
