Chiara Camoni in conversation with Cecilia Canziani
The Public Program devoted to Chiara Camoni’s exhibition Call and gather presents, on Friday 8 March at 7 PM, a conversation inside the exhibition space between the artist Chiara Camoni and Cecilia Canziani, independent curator.
The dialogue between Chiara Camoni and Cecilia Canziani has taken different forms over the years: together, they have worked on numerous exhibitions, editorial projects, performances, traveling seminars, and have spent more than one summer reading next to each other.
The conversation will take place in the central space of the exhibition, which was conceived by the artist as a place for meeting, exchanging and sharing thoughts and practices, and where, starting with the works in the exhibition, they will talk about life in the studio, its immediate surroundings, readings, images and how, through art, small, new worlds are created every day.
The public listened to the conversation through headphones inside the exhibition space.
The conversation was held in Italian.
Free admission to the event.
Pirelli HangarBicocca Members are guaranteed admission.
