demo station: Cadore33 – Antonio Moresco: Up Close with Giacomo

Cadore33 presents Antonio Moresco: Up Close with Giacomo.

Writer Antonio Moresco takes the viewer on an immersive journey into his lifelong relationship with Giacomo Leopardi, weaving together memory, body, and literary creation. Moresco invites us to engage with the startling contemporaneity of Leopardi's work — unfiltered, unmediated. For Leopardi is not merely a classic: he is a vibrant, urgent voice capable of reopening ancient wounds.

The event takes place on Rirkrit Tiravanija’s installation untitled 2026 (demo station no. 9). The stage-like structure invites people to “demonstrate” something. The combination of the words demo and station in the work’s title refers respectively to the abbreviation of demonstration—understood both as a protest and as a presentation of someone’s talent or hobby —and to station, that is, an accessible place where such “demonstrations” can occur. For the duration of the exhibition, the installation provides a space for daily public activations.
