An artistic and museological work in progress exploring Alda Merini's verses with love and passion: on October 24, the "A CASA DI ALDA" exhibition opens. The project is an immersive journey of Casa delle arti Spazio Alda Merini - a place recreating the poet's most intimate atmospheres. The exhibition comes from Donatella Massimilla's (director and playwright - CETEC) and Margherita Palli's (set designer and Bachelor of Arts in Set Design Course Advisor Leader) ideas. BA in Set Design students realised the staging. During the opening, it also will be possible to discover more about "VEGLIE D'AMORE". The theatre, music and visual arts festival will be held in many places loved by Alda Merini from November 1. Information on the event and links to other NABA exhibitions in Milan are below.
