Byron’s work written in 1816 – the “summerless” year that prompted investigation and rethinking of the relationship between humans and nature – originates a multifaceted reflection that is ecological, spiritual, existential. Voices, sounds and images evoke ancient memories of beauty and glimpses of contemporaneity.
madalena reversa is an artistic project created in 2016 by Maria Alterno and Richard Pareschi, blending performing and visual arts. Their works have been presented at the Milan Triennale, the Venice Biennale, Santarcangelo Festival, Festival delle Colline Torinesi, Short Theatre.
