      54th International Festival of Contemporary Music: yes we can (together)

      Finally together four of the best cultural institutions in Venice: Conservatory Benedetto Marcello, Accademia di Belle Arti, Theater La Fenice , Venice Biennale. If good ideas will save us (and Venice), this is one of them. In times where money is too tight (to mention), join together must be one of the answers. Bis! Again please!

      txt: Don Giovanni in Venice 23 > 25 September Palazzo Pisani, Conservatorio B. Marcello of Venice Labyrinth Opera

      The Don Giovanni by Mozart becomes Don Giovanni a Venezia, a totally new opera installation that inaugurates the 54th Festival and presents itself as a synthesis of the themes running through it. A concentration of many simultaneous events – musical, scenic, theatrical, visual – dispersed throughout the spaces of the Conservatorio Benedetto Marcello in Venice and cyclically “switched on”, Don Giovanni a Venezia disrupts our perceptive habits and creates interference between different eras. Conceived by director Luca Francesconi, Don Giovanni a Venezia is a singular experiment in production with young artists from the Conservatorio Benedetto Marcello and the Accademia di Belle Arti who will measure themselves on the professional stage against the singers and musicians of one of the major opera theatres, the Teatro La Fenice, against the composers, soloists and actors involved in this operation. A complex stage organization, engaging over 130 artistic and technical professionals, made possible by the joint commitment of four Venetian institutions: the participants in this project by the Music Biennale are the Conservatorio Benedetto Marcello, which not only put its young musicians and composers to work, but also offered its historic headquarters at Palazzo Pisani in Campo Santo Stefano, one of the most fascinating Venetian palaces, as the venue for the performance; the Teatro La Fenice, which involved its entire choir and orchestra ensemble, and opened its storerooms to lend the costumes and props; and the Accademia di Belle Arti, which will create the sets for Palazzo Pisani.

      txt: 54th International Festival of Contemporary Music - Don Giovanni and the man of stone 23rd September > 2nd October 2010
      Titled Don Giovanni and the man of stone, the Festival refers not only to the famous opera by Mozart, but to one of the central myths of western culture, the myth of Don Giovanni: within the conflict between human finiteness and its aspiration to eternity, between the body and the spirit, reverberates the relationship between the immortality of the work of art and the inexorable breath of time, between the written and the oral, between tradition and modernity. These themes weave through the 54th International Festival of Contemporary Music and find their synthesis in the opening event, the opera-installation Don Giovanni a Venezia.

      txt: PROVINCIA ITALIANA
      Provincia italiana is one of the Collateral Events to be held during the 12th Venice International Biennale of Architecture. The project consists of meetings, workshops, talks, and conferences in some of the most fascinating venues in the provinces of Vicenza, Venice, Padua, and Treviso. It is a programme of events and activities taking place during the period of the Biennale in Palladian villas, a Second World War bunker, industrial areas, and abandoned factories. Provincia italiana is a laboratory for rethinking the territory, with architecture as its starting point, and for two months it will activate spaces and, above all, people. The projects aims are: - to create a concerted territorial network for the exchange ideas about contemporary themes - to capitalize on the territory’s historical/architectural heritage by using it as the scenario for events and activities - to create an international context for animating the economic and social system - to construct operative programmes for cultural situations, and to plan and activate experimental projects that will permit local situations to compete in global contexts - to redefine the character of the territory by sparking off new approaches to social and cultural relationships Provincia italiana is a project promoted by C4 - Centro Cultura Contemporaneo Caldogno, organized by Fuoribiennale and Centro Studi Usine, curated by CulturAli, made in Innov(e)tion Valley

      Comoda_mente 2010: La leggerezza Vittorio Veneto (Treviso) 2/5 settembre 2010 txt: www.comodamente.it - Il festival
      Il festival Comoda_mente nasce per fondere in un unico messaggio i temi della riqualificazione urbana e della cultura contemporanea e offrire quel nutrimento culturale vivo che ormai è diventato un bisogno socialmente percepito. [...] Tre giorni, quindi, per scomodare il conosciuto e prendersi una rivincita su tutto quello che facilmente definisce il Reale scartando il Possibile, comodamente seduti in un avvolgente salotto urbano.

      Earth Overshoot Day: what are we doing about?

      • Autopost

      The 12th Venice International Architecture Exhibition is opening (preview on August 26, 27 and 28, 2010) and Earth Overshoot Day is past (August 21st). It would be interesting to ask every architect we'll meet among the pavilions: "What is the footprint of your buildings?". And to us: "What are we doing about our personal footprint?". Take the quiz..  

       

      txt: August 21 is Earth Overshoot Day - www.footprintnetwork.org

       

      August 21st marks an unfortunate milestone: the day in which we exhaust our ecological budget for the year. Once we pass this day, humanity will have demanded all the ecological services – from filtering CO2 to producing the raw materials for food – that nature can provide this year. From that point until the end of the year, we meet our ecological demand by liquidating resource stocks and accumulating carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. What is Earth Overshoot Day? Every year, Global Footprint Network calculates nature's supply in the form of biocapacity, the amount of resources the planet generates, and compares that to human demand: the amount it takes to produce all the living resources we consume and absorb our carbon dioxide emissions. Earth Overshoot Day, a concept devised by U.K.-based new economics foundation, marks the day when demand on ecological services begins to exceed the renewable supply.
