Through the in-depth segments Speak to Me and Reading Room, Vincenzo Valenti guides you through a series of dedicated conversations and readings, bringing you closer to the featured artists and their vision.

READING ROOM/03__Botto&Bruno

A dialogue between Gianfranco Botto, Roberta Bruno, and Vincenzo Valenti, drawing on excerpts from Henry David Thoreau's essay Walking, in which movement becomes a philosophical and spiritual act, a tool of freedom, and an encounter with nature.

READING ROOM/02__Francesca Ferreri

A dialogue between Francesca Ferreri and Vincenzo Valenti, starting from a selection of readings — Febbre by Jonathan Bazzi, Neuro-infiammazione e dis-funzione dei processi mentali by Marcello Giuseppe Tanca, Cercare Mondi by Guido Tonelli, The Inflamed Mind by Edward Bullmore, and Fragments by Friedrich von Hardenberg (Novalis) — which have nourished and guided Ferreri’s research over the past two years.

READING ROOM/01__Gabriele Arruzzo

A dialogue between Gabriele Arruzzo and Vincenzo Valenti, inspired by Roland Barthes’ A Lover’s Discourse: Fragments.
