pae.saggio
The Italy that remains.
A meeting with the most important Italian landscape scholar on the art of encountering, telling, and observing towns and places.
A poetic investigation outside traditional dynamics in search of the forms of beauty of the territory.
Through intense words, Franco Arminio takes us on an emotional journey through the villages, houses, countryside, and silences of inner Italy – the one that resists depopulation, that preserves memory and a sense of community.

betumi.era
Dialogue between the economy and society of the territory from the post-war period to today.
From hay under the Barch to precision mechanics under the warehouses. A dialogue about what remains of our rural history, what has changed over time, and what our future will be.
With his sharp and ironic gaze, Gian Antonio Stella helps us read the transformation of the territory through the lenses of culture, economy, and collective memory.
An opportunity to reflect, smile, and better understand where we are headed.

(im)barch.azioni
A journey through art, landscape, and material memory.
An immersive walk guided by diverse and passionate perspectives, with surprising incursions along the way that intertwine stories, practices, ancient knowledge, and new visions.
Stations along the route:
Serena Turrin will lead us to discover the walnut, a symbol of resilience and memory.
The Cantiere della Provvidenza will tell us about the mulberry and silkworms, among invisible threads and traditions to be rewoven.
Selva Green will guide us among dry stone walls, small architectures of patience.
Coltivare Condividendo will talk about ancient seeds and wine, as a liquid narrative of the landscape.
Immersion in the world of hay, among scents and gestures of a past that returns.
