Days wednesday

A conversation on identity, desire, and queer masculinity as forms of journey and transformation.

An encounter exploring travel as a space for discovery, transformation, and the redefinition of the self, starting from Isaac Julien’s The Long Road to Mazatlán (1999, 18’). The screening of the work will open a conversation led by Sara Luraschi, educator at the Immaginare Orlando Association, exploring identity, masculinity, desire, and belonging, while engaging with queer imaginaries and identities in motion, and examining desire as a personal, cultural, and political experience.

The event is part of the public program presented by gres art 671 on the occasion of Isaac Julien’s exhibition Museum Dreams, and is also included among the special events of FUORI TUTTə, the film series curated by Associazione Immaginare Orlando in collaboration with Lab 80 film.

  • The event starts at 7:30 pm.
  • PLEASE NOTE: We recommend watching the work before attending the talk. For event participants, The Long Road to Mazatlán will be screened from 6:00 pm onwards, with screenings approximately every 18 minutes.
  • exhibition admission + talk: €9.00 [reduced admission: €6.00 for Immaginare Orlando or Lab80 cardholders]

The ticket can also be used on another day during the exhibition’s opening period.

SMOKING ROOMS

di mk / Michele Di Stefano

The performance evokes the suspended atmosphere of places where bodies are summoned into a forced proximity: a waiting room, an antechamber, the backstage of a theater. What emerges is a complex and fragile environment, the result of layered agreements and symbioses, a kind of coral reef that resolves its own fragility moment by moment.

MANIFESTUS

by Jacopo Jenna

The Latin word MANIFESTUS (clear, evident) indeed contains the word manus (hand). To manifest is a way of saying "I AM HERE," it is the moment when we, together, seize a fleeting trace of reality and present it to the eyes of the public, the piazza, of others.

LA LUCE DEL NERO

by Teatro tascabile di Bergamo

"La luce del nero", a theatrical production by Teatro tascabile di Bergamo, is a collective dance that blends ritual and vision, navigating the pain of the present. Through music, poetry, and movement, figures of shadow and light give shape to a secular prayer that invites us to pause and reflect, through both sight and memory.
