SUMMARY:Exhibition: Kenro Izu "Requiem for Pompei". From 6 December 2019 to 13 April 2020 Modena
DESCRIPTION:MODENA \nFMAV MATA – EX MANIFATTURA TABACCHI \nFROM 6 DECEMBER 2019 TO 13 APRIL 2020 \nTHE EXHIBITION OF \nKENRO IZU \nREQUIEM FOR POMPEI \nCurated by Chiara Dall’Olio and Daniele De Luigi \n \nThe exhibition presents 55 previously unseen photographs donated by the Japanese artist to the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Modena\, in a lyrical vision of what was left behind in Pompeii the day after the eruption in 79 AD. \nModena is continuing to forge a special relationship with photography. Now one of the top locations in Italy for this particular form of expression\, it is capable of influencing the city’s whole cultural scene thanks to the contribution of institutions such as the Galleria Civica and Fondazione Fotografia Modena\, which merged in 2017 to become Fondazione Modena Arti Visive. \nFrom 6 December 2019 to 13 April 2020\, Fondazione Modena Arti Visive is hosting a captivating exhibition dedicated to Pompeii\, curated by Chiara Dall’Olio and Daniele De Luigi\, at one of its venues: FMAV MATA – Ex Manifattura Tabacchi. The exhibition is co-promoted by Pompeii Archaeological Park which is lending some reproductions of the famous plaster casts of the victims of the eruption for the occasion and will then host the exhibition on site in Pompeii. \nHeadlining the exhibition is Japanese photographer Kenro Izu (Osaka\, 1949)\, whose lasting fascination with the remnants of ancient civilizations has led to the creation of a series of images captured at the most important and best-known archaeological sites in the world\, from Egypt to Cambodia\, Indonesia to India\, Tibet to Syria.

SUMMARY:Conference: Human Remains. Ethics\, Conservation\, Display
DESCRIPTION:On 30 September and 1 October 2019 the Museo Egizio will organize the conference “Human Remains. Ethics\, Conservation\, Display”. \nThis event is a follow-up of like-themed conference organised in Pompeii and Naples in May 2019\, at which many questions were raised regarding the study\, conservation and display of human remains (http://www.humanremains.org). \nLike the previous event\, the Turin conference intends to address these issues\, but with a particular focus on mummies\, given the nature of the Egyptian Museum’s collection. \n \nIn full awareness of the fact that there is no single answer to the question about the acceptability or otherwise of the display of human remains\, and that a variety of exhibition strategies have been adopted by different institutions on the international scene\, these study days are intended to give voice to the broad range of approaches to such a delicate issue. \nAn openness to disciplines outside Egyptology is an indispensable prerequisite for the debate about the display of human remains. Hence the desire to involve physical and cultural anthropologists\, biologists\, restorers\, sociologists\, museum curators and operators\, forensic doctors and paleopathologists. \nThe conference will be divided into three sections: \n– The living and the dead.\n– Preserving the body\, preserving the mummy.\n– Museums and exhibitions: case studies. \nEthical issues and points for discussion. At the end of the conference\, the most pressing issues and the main points for reflection that will have emerged during the past two days will be reviewed and discussed among all participants. \nTo view the full program\, please click here. \nThe scientific and organizational committee consists of:\nMassimo Osanna\, Università Federico II\, Naples\nChristian Greco\, Museo Egizio\, Turin\nValeria Amoretti\, Parco Archeologico di Pompei\, Pompeii\nCaterina Ciccopiedi Museo Egizio\, Turin\nPaolo Del Vesco\, Museo Egizio\, Turin\nFederica Facchetti.

SUMMARY:NATIONAL LANDSCAPE DAY 2019 – 14TH MARCH 2019
DESCRIPTION:For National Landscape Day 2019\, set for the 14th March 2019\, the Archaeological Park of Pompeii will participate in the event\, promoted by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities\, with numerous initiatives: \nExcavations of Pompeii\nSeveral wall paintings which depict landscapes will be focused on\, with the distribution of an illustrated booklet. These include the frescoes of the garden in the House of the Ceii (I 6\, 15)\, which was recently reopened to the public\, where a vast landscape is depicted\, showing beasts hunting animals in a natural environment\, but in particular two frescoes on the side walls of the garden which depict Egyptian landscapes. In the garden of the nearby House of the Ephebe (I 7\, 10. 19)\, the masonry bed of the outdoor dining room features a long scene decorated with another Egyptian landscape.\nThe House of the Pygmies (IX 5\, 9) will\, exceptionally\, also be open to the public on this day\, where another fresco with an Egyptian landscape is preserved\, populated by certain characters (dwarfs or pygmies) who are depicted at a sacred place on the banks of the River Nile.\nThe examples considered demonstrate the spread to Pompeii of the fashion of depicting exotic places on walls\, populated by foreign characters taking part in unusual activities and superstitious rites\, with unusual or unknown animals. \nExcavations of Oplontis\nTaking centre stage will be the large wall fresco of Triclinium 15\, where a sweeping sacred landscape – the courtyard of a sanctuary dedicated to the god Apollo\, as demonstrated by the large tripod which rises in the centre of the wall – is depicted. The two small panel paintings that appear on the right and left of the wall\, which are referred to with the Greek term pinakes\, and which depict two foreshortened sea views\, are veritable landscapes within a landscape.\nAt 10 o’clock and at 12\, there will be a talk given by a specialist from the Park\, who will speak about the Villa of Poppaea and the indicated fresco. \nExcavations of Stabiae\nHere the frescoes of Villa San Marco which depict landscapes\, and which appear both in the sections with trees which line the walls of the villa and in the small paintings which adorn it\, will be focused on.\nAt 10 o’clock and at 12\, there will be a talk given by specialists from the Park\, who will speak about Villa San Marco with particular reference to the indicated frescoes. \nAntiquarium of Boscoreale\nTwo frescoes which are normally kept in storage will be presented to the public at the Antiquarium. The first\, which comes from an illegal excavation which took place in the Vesuvian area\, presents two landscapes depicted using an unusual painting technique – monochromy – which in this case was created using various shades of green.\nOn the other hand\, the second fresco depicts a landscape connected to a scene from a famous Greek myth\, which is frequently represented in Pompeian painting: the young hunter Narcissus\, seated on a rock in a forest\, is reflected in a pond\, and falls in love with his own reflection.\nAt 10 o’clock and at 12\, there will be a talk given by a specialist from the Park\, who will talk about the museum\, with particular reference to the indicated frescoes.  Download the brochure.  \nNB. Participation in the events relating to Landscape Day is included in the price of the entrance ticket.

SUMMARY:In the Volcano: Cai Guo-Qiang and Pompeii
DESCRIPTION:February 21st at 1pm\nTHE POMPEII AMPHITHEATRE – EXPLOSION STUDIO\, \nA unique explosion event by artist Cai Guo-Qiang leading to\nFebruary 22nd\nOpening of asolo exhibition at the National Archaeological Museum of Naples\nIN THE VOLCANO: Cai Guo-Qiang and Pompeii\nOn view from FEBRUARY 22ndto May 20th2019\nPress preview 4:30pm\nExhibition opening 6:30pm \nFebruary 21st. An explosion of gunpowder and color smoke in Pompeii’s Amphitheatre will reignite the tragic and vital dynamics of the eruption of Mt. Vesuviusin a timeless\, poetic journey that tells the story of the destruction and rebirth of Pompeii. \nArtist Cai Guo-Qiangwill execute Explosion Studio in the arena of the Amphitheatre at 1 PMon February 21s. An artistic explosion whose different phaseswill act as metaphor of not only the tragedy that devastated Pompeii but also its remarkable discovery. Explosion Studio will bring to light exceptional historical moments and archaeological finds. \nThe works created from this explosion event will subsequently be “excavated” and transferred to the National Archaeological Museum of Naples (MANN) for the exhibition opening on February 22ndat 6:30 PM\, until May 20th\, 2019.Spread throughout the museum—from the Farnese Collection to the frescoes section\, from the atrium to the mosaic collection—Cai Guo-Qiang’s works will narrate the enduring link between past and present\, and between Eastern and Western culture. \nThe exhibition is curated by Jérôme Neutres. Theprojectis co-hosted by the Archaeological Park of Pompeii and the National Archaeological Museum of Naples.In the Volcano is made possible with support of Morra Foundation. \nWith this multifaceted artistic engagement\, artist Cai Guo-Qiang continueshis work in Italy after the success of his firework performance in Florence (City of Flowers in the Sky) and the solo show Flora Commedia: Cai Guo-Qiang at the Uffizias part of Cai Guo-Qiang’sbroader project\,An individual’s Journey through Western ArtHistory. \n\nExplosion Studio \nThe explosion at the Amphitheatre of Pompeii will be a one-of-its-kind historical event. At the center of the Amphitheatre\, canvases of different sizes and copies of objects linked to daily life and art in Pompeii will be placed on a32-by-6-meter canvas\, supported by a platform.These objects include reproductions of sculptures from the MANN collections\, such as the Venus Callipigia\, the Farnese Hercules and Atlas\, and the bust of Pseudo-Seneca. \nExplosion Studiowill unfold in three parts. I.Beginning with the evocative chapter “The Fabric of Civilization” – small explosions will disrupt the artefacts arranged on the canvas\, marking it violently and with the same ruthlessness that hasleft its mark on human lives at the time of the volcanic explosion of the Vesuvio.II. After a brief pause\, coloreddaytime fireworks lined up along the canvas point towards the sky as though an unrelenting volcanic eruption. The fireworks will theatrically embody a heavy “Sigh\,” that of the rise and fall of a human civilization. This occasion marks the artist’s first attempt to “paint” on canvas with fireworks. III.Then\,“Excavation” will begin –amid the last fumes\, the artist and his team will bring to light the “archaeological ruins.” The exploded canvas will be filled with imageries and colors inspired by the collection of objects discovered in Pompeii now in the MANN collection. \n“I borrow from Massimo Osanna\, to whom we owe the promotion of this project\, the idea that Pompeii is a place of the contemporary.” – declares the interim Director of the Archaeological Park of Pompeii\, Alfonsina Russo. “Pompeii\, suspended in time\, has always captured the imagination and creative spirit of artists of all ages\, reminding us that the tragic event of 79 AD impressed itself upon collective memory for eternity\, not only for its unique history and testimony of an era\, but also because of the profound sense of fragility and impotence we are constantlyfaced with.”

SUMMARY:Picasso
DESCRIPTION:‘Parade’ and ‘Pulcinella’ on stage\nAt the Teatro Grande in Pompeii with the Corps de Ballet of the Rome Opera House\nIn 1917 Picasso undertook a journey to Italy with Jean Cocteau to work with the Ballets Russes on ‘Parade’.\nDuring his stay in Italy\, the artist visited Rome\, Naples and Pompeii.\nTo celebrate the centenary of Picasso’s journey\, the Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities and Tourism is hosting some important events and exhibitions\, such as the recently concluded exhibition ‘Picasso and Naples: Parade’ at the Museum and Real Bosco of Capodimonte in Naples\, and in the Antiquarium of Pompeii. \n\nThe Rome Opera House is one of the leading institutions of the celebratory event. A special occasion\, ‘ An Evening of Parade and Pulcinella’\, held in the extraordinary venue of the Teatro Grande\, will be coming soon\, promoted by the Archaeological Park of Pompeii in cooperation with Mondadori Electa.\nFrom Thursday 27 th to Saturday 29 th July 2017\, principal dancers Rebecca Bianchi\, Claudio Cocino\, Manuel\nParuccini\, the Soloists and Corps de ballet of the Rome Opera House\, directed by Eleonora Abbagnato\, will make the characters and the magic of the ‘Parade’ and ‘Pulcinella’ ballets come to life.\nThe Ballet ‘Parade’ originated in Rome in 1917 masterfully orchestrated by the founder of the Ballets Russes\, Sergej Djagilev\, through the collaborative work of Pablo Picasso\, Jean Cocteau\, Léonide Massine\, and Erik Satie who remained in France. The famous writer Guillaume Apollinaire described this cooperation as an Esprit Nouveau\, and in the theatre programme he wrote\, “Parade will change the ideas of a great many spectators.’ Since the beginning\, ‘Parade’ was considered a new and revolutionary ballet by its creators where for the first time the costumes were like three-dimensional sculptures dancing on stage and executing an innovative choreography with quick and abrupt movements.\nThe ballet was set in its present day era in a street in Paris where some circus and music-hall artists\, namely a Chinese magician\, a young American girl\, and two acrobats\, were performing in an attempt to attract an audience. ‘Parade’ shows everyday characters carrying out actions of contemporary life which set Massine’s ballet apart since other ballets were mainly based on myths\, fairy tales\, and folklore. It had a strong impact on 20 th century ballet.\n‘Parade’ premiered on 18 th May 1917 at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris\, in the middle of the war\, but the\naudience did not understand its modernity\, which aimed to capture the most insolent\, common and lively aspects of human nature. The ballet was booed and called outrageous. The characters of the ballet performed dances very near to the popular entertainments\, in stark contrast with the serious and sublime image of Russian dancers that dominated at the time. However\, ‘Parade’ is not an example of variety show\, but rather an artistic evolution of theatre. Its four genius creators\, Picasso\, Cocteau\, Massine and Satie who were regulars at the circus\, the cinema and the music halls\, were the ideal choice to work on a project aiming at bringing some of the liveliness and authenticity of popular theatre into the world of ballet.\nFor this ballet\, Picasso explored one of his favourite themes\, the circus. He designed unconventional sets and costumes. Satie’s music included realistic sounds of daily-life. Cocteau played a key role in conceiving the project\, writing the plot\, taking part in every aspect of its artistic evolution\, and enthusiastically involving Picasso and Satie in this adventure.\n‘Parade’ was performed for the first time in Rome in June 1964 at the Teatro Costanzi by Maurice Béjart’s guest company ‘Ballet of the 20 th Century’ and then only on 6th February 2007 by the ‘Corps de Ballet of the Rome Opera House’.\n‘Pulcinella’\, a one-act ballet set in Naples\, premiered on 15 th May 1920 at the Paris Opera\, and Picasso’s “visual provocation” was immediately cheered by the audience. It was a three-man job: music by Igor Stravinskij\, choreography by Léonide Massine\, costumes and sets by Pablo Picasso. The idea stemmed from Diaghilev\, Stravinskij\, Massine and Picasso’s experiences and recollections of their two journeys to Naples and their trip to Pompeii\, in March and April 1917. The ballet took inspiration from the atmosphere of Naples’ alleys and markets\, the charm of ancient Pompeii\, and the great Italian tradition of the Commedia dell’arte. During their second journey\, Picasso and Stravinskij\, were fascinated by the expressive force of a theatre piece in the Neapolitan dialect\, noticing how it was possible to overcome language barriers and captivate an audience using dynamic and popular creativity. The concept for the ballet was taken from a manuscript found in Naples’ National Library featuring the well-known figure of Pulcinella. The concepteurs started to work on the character of Pulcinella\, revolutionising him. Stravinskij’s music took a new direction and became the first neoclassical composition\, based on themes by Giovanni Battista Pergolesi rewritten in a modern tone. Later\, the Russian composer said that ‘Pulcinella’ had been his discovery of the past\, the epiphany through which the whole of his later work had become possible. It had been a look backwards\, the first of many love affairs in that direction\, but also a look in the mirror. In order to compensate the lack of expressiveness of Pulcinella’s masked face\, Massine created highly pantomimic choreography that could\nshape the body of the dancers in an expressive way.\nIn Naples he had watched many puppet shows featuring Pulcinella as the main character\, and he had been\nespecially fascinated by the continuous changes in his gestures.\nPicasso’s sets were a breakdown of rectangles\, squares and trapezoids\, according to the geometric forms of Cubism\, in cool shades to enhance the bright colours of the costumes.\n‘Pulcinella’ was performed for the first time in Rome in the Teatro Costanzi by the Ballets Russes on 30 th January 1921.\nLéonide Massine’s choreography has been revived by his son Lorca Massine\, a world-renowned dancer and choreographer\, who has always upheld his father’s artistic tradition and who has always had a special relationship with Rome Opera House\, where he was director of the Ballet company between 1981 and 1983. Anna Krzyskow and Manuel Paruccini are assistant choreographers. Pablo Picasso’s set designs have been reconstructed by Maurizio Varamo\, and his costumes by Anna Biagiotti. All is ready to be staged at the Rome Opera House with lighting arrangement by Mario De Amicis and pre-recorded music. \n‘Parade’\nOne-act ballet\nMusic by Erik Satie\nChoreography by Léonide Massine\nRevived by Lorca Massine\nAssistant choreographer Anna Krzyskow\nSet design by Pablo Picasso\, reconstructed by Maurizio Varamo\nCostume design by Pablo Picasso\, reconstructed by Anna Biagiotti\nLighting by Mario De Amicis\n‘Pulcinella’\nOne-act ballet\nMusic by Igor Stravinskij\nChoreography by Léonide Massine\nRevived by Lorca Massine\nAssistant choreographer Anna Krzyskow and Manuel Paruccini\nSet design by Pablo Picasso\, reconstructed by Maurizio Varamo\nCostume design by Pablo Picasso\, reconstructed by Anna Biagiotti\nLighting by Mario De Amicis\nPrincipal dancers Rebecca Bianchi\, Claudio Cocino\, Manuel Paruccini\nSoloists and Corps de ballet of the Rome Opera House\nWith the participation of the students of the Lyceum of Mara Fusco\nStaged by the Rome Opera House\nRecorded music\nTeatro Grande in Pompeii\nPremiere on Thursday 27 th July at 9pm.

It will be on stage for four days (from 22nd to 25th June) on alternate days in two parts\, ‘Agamemnon’ and ‘The Libation Bearers’/’The Eumenides’. After a two-year tour in Italy and abroad\, the play now arrives at the Teatro Grande in Pompeii\, where it was originally destined to premiere. \n30th June – 6th July\n‘Diptych’ directed by Massimo Luconi\n‘Prometheia’ by Aeschylus (from 30th June to 2nd July)\nThis is the national debut starring the actor Luca Lazzareschi in the role of the great and mysterious mythological character. The play is produced by the Teatro Stabile of Naples and by the Campania dei Festival Foundation – Napoli Teatro Festival Italia.\n‘Antigone. An African story’ by Jean Anouilh (5th and 6th July)\nPerformed in the French and Wolof language with Italian surtitles\, this production originates from a three-year workshop run by the director Massimo Luconi in Senegal with young Senegalese actors.\nA group of six actors from Senegal will be joined by some Senegalese chorists residing in Naples\, Italy.

But the sacred? The mysterious? Have they also disappeared from our lives forever?” The director continues\, “Theatre is still the place where a god can come to life? Where we can listen to their voice and\, above all\, ask them questions?” The play is produced by the Teatro Stabile of Naples and the Teatro Stabile of Turin. \n22Nd – 23rd July\n‘Phaedra’ by Seneca\nThe series will close on 22nd and 23rd July with ‘Phaedra’ by Seneca\, directed by Carlo Cerciello and translated by Maurizio Bettini.

SUMMARY:Pistoletto in Pompeii
DESCRIPTION:  \n14 th MARCH NATIONAL LANDSCAPE DAY AT THE EXCAVATION SITES OF POMPEII-POMPEII’S RE-BIRTH. MICHELANGELO PISTOLETTO’S ‘THIRD PARADISE’ \nAgreat celebration and a flash-mob in the Palestra Grande of Pompeii helps bring a ‘Third Paradise’ to life with Michelangelo Pistoletto\, inspired by the re-birth that Pompeii is experiencing. \n\nPompeii’s re-birth can be seen through Pistoletto’s symbol and his ‘Third Paradise’. The symbol of the ‘Third Paradise’ is the reconfiguration of the mathematical infinity symbol. It is composed of three consecutive circles where the two opposite circles represent nature and artifice while the middle one is the conjunction of the two and represents the womb of re-birth. On 14 th March\, the symbol of the master generated a collective action which narrates the past\, present and future of Pompeii. It is the re-birth of the site which can now be seen by all.. The installation was created for National Landscape Day\, an initiative scheduled for 14 th March 2017 and launched by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities and Tourism to celebrate the landscape\, its history\, as well as its importance for the identity of the country. It will be on display in the Palestra Grande until the end of July. Visitors to the site\, students\, and the staff of the Superintendency got involved for the great event of interactive realisation of this great undertaking that brings together the past\, present and future through the use of diverse symbolic materials. The artist met with the public and the press to speak about the meaning of his work and its continuous re- expression in different places and contexts. Also present were the General Director of the Superintendency of Pompeii Massimo Osanna\, Fortunato D’amico from the Cittadellarte-Pistoletto Foundation\, Paolo Mighetto the curator of the performance for the Superintendency of Pompeii\, and Gianluca De Marchi from URBAN VISION the main sponsor of the event. In 2003 Pistoletto wrote the ‘Third Paradise’ manifesto and designed its symbol\, represented by a reconfiguration of the mathematical infinity symbol. The large circles drawn were inspired by the theorem of Trinamics\, the dynamics of the number three. It was the combination of two units that gave rise to a third distinct\, new unit. Thus\, the 3 was a re-birth which took place as a result of a fortuitous\, or desired\, combination of two elements. In Pompeii the ‘Third Paradise’ is crafted and blended with all of those materials that have contributed to building it in the past and continue to transform it in the present and for the future. Thus in the circle of the past we find lapilli\, pumices\, tuff blocks\, ceramic waste\, residues of plaster casts like fossils of a lost civilisation\, but also construction materials such as the wheel of a water mill\, and archaeologists’ tools that were used to preserve the history of the site and humanity. Wi-Fi antennae\, ‘ConTe’ electronic bracelets\, and a computer symbolise the future and its technology. The central circle is the new life of the Site which keeps regenerating itself between the past and the future. Here nature reclaims its role through the plants\, herbs and flowers that once grew in Pompeii whose seeds have been found among the ashes by the archaeologists. A peace has been created that can only be found through trying to live in harmony with the environment. \nhttp://it.terzoparadiso.org \n http://www.cittadellarte.it/

SUMMARY:Einaudi
DESCRIPTION:The Teatro Grande will reopen on 23 rd July with an exceptional artist\, Ludovico Einaudi\, performing in\nPompeii for the first time. ‘Ludovico Einaudi elements’ is the title of the concert. Together with the Turin\ncomposer on piano\, there will be Federico Mecozzi on violin\, Redi Hasa playing cello\, Alberto Fabris on bass\nguitar and live electronics\, Riccardo Laganà on percussion and Francesco Arcuri on guitar.. \n  \nThe album ‘Elements’ was released on 16 th October 2015.It includes 12 pieces featuring various instruments\, the piano\, strings\, percussion\, guitar and electronics. Like Einaudi’s previous albums\, ‘Elements’ is a suite\, which means that each piece is firmly connected to the others.

The album was recorded over three months\, between March and June\, in the studio of Einaudi’s country house on the Langhe hills; “A unique experience\, accompanied by the pulsating rhythm of spring in its explosion.’ Discussing his latest work\, the composer said\, “If it weren’t music\, it would be a map of thoughts\, sometimes clear\, sometimes one on top of the other\, dots\, lines\, shapes\, fragments of an internal discourse that never stops. \n‘ Tickets can be purchased online at www.ticketone.it or through authorised dealers. \nIn July\, for Pompeii’s summer season\, the Amphitheatre will also host the concerts of Elton John on 12 th July and David Gilmour on 7 th and 8 th July.

Suonare qui nel 1971 è stato davvero unico e non vedo l’ora di tornare e possibilmente vivere nuovi indimenticabili momenti ma questa volta è persino più speciale perché ci sarà un pubblico presente.” \nDario Franceschini\, il Ministro dei Beni Culturali ha detto: “”Quarantacinque anni dopo il leggendario Live At Pompeii\, David Gilmour torna a suonare in uno scenario di fascino e bellezza unico al mondo.

Sarà un concerto imperdibile”. \nIl Professor Massimo Osanna\, sovraintendente di Pompei\, ha detto: “Il ritorno di Gilmoura Pompei è un evento straordinario che la Soprintendenza e il Ministero hanno fortemente voluto. Pompei\, mai come ora nel pieno della sua rinascita\, è pronta ad accogliere questo grande artista che con la sua band ha segnato la storia della musica di questo secolo e allo stesso tempo ha lasciato il suo segno profondo nel sito di Pompei con il memorabile concerto a porte chiuse del 1971. \nAncora una volta l’anfiteatro farà da scena privilegiata a questo concerto e siamo sicuri che come allora si riproporrà la stessa magica atmosfera e la stessa grande emozione che solo la combinazione unica di un luogo sospeso nel tempo come Pompei e di una grande musica possono riuscire a creare.
