Of Death and Dying
SEPTEMBER 2018 - DECEMBER 2019
From September 2018 until December 2019, the Associazione Culturale Dello Scompiglio presented the program Of Death and Dying, focusing on individuality in relation to death and more specifically, to its three dimensions: the socio-political dimension (euthanasia, abortion, suicide, the death penalty, or accidental death as a consequence of conflict or natural disasters), the ideological dimension (atheism, agnosticism, and religious, esoteric and mystic beliefs about the possibility of life after death) and the celebratory dimension (aspects related to different funerary rituals and the mourning process). Besides the winning projects of the open call, aimed at all artists in every branch and hybridization of the arts, who presented in total more than five hundred projects, the program will include creations and productions by the Compagnia Dello Scompiglio, discussions, exhibitions and shows by other artists and companies.
