Fornasetti presenta: A dialogue around women’s silence
Corso Venezia 21/A (corner via Senato)
Milan
In occasione della Giornata internazionale per l’eliminazione della violenza contro le donne, lunedì 25 novembre Fornasetti ospita un dialogo attorno al silenzio femminile presso il suo store milanese di corso Venezia.
Un viaggio in quel “tacere”, imposto e subìto, raccontato attraverso le parole di: Nicoletta Polla-Mattiot, giornalista del Sole 24 Ore e autrice del libro “FEMMINILE SINGOLARE. Perché le donne devono fare silenzio”, edizioni Mimesis, e Stefano Raimondi, poeta e autore di “SOLTANTO VIVE. 59 monologhi”, edizioni Mimesis.
Raffaella Calandra, giornalista di Radio 24, dialogherà con gli autori.
L’iniziativa rientra in “Fornasetti presenta”, rassegna dedicata dall’atelier milanese al dialogo fra le diverse forme d’espressione artistica, dalla letteratura alla performance, dalla poesia all’arte visiva, dalla musica al design.
