510097 - WORKSHOP OF PLANNING AND CURATING FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS

The program starts from a reflection on the developments of performance in the second half of the twentieth century, with particular reference to the new Italian and international groups and avant-gardes who have developed their theatrical research in the context of collective writing processes, activism and relationships between professionalism and amateurism (Living Theatre, Bread and Puppet, animazione teatrale...). On the basis of these founding premises, the program will subsequently extend its reflection on contemporary examples of conception and curatorship in the field of performing arts, holding seminar meetings with artists and territorial and national entities operating in this field.
