Art and resistance, meeting with Vittore Bocchetta
Curated by Giuliana Adamo (Trinity College Dublin; author of "Vittore Bocchetta. Una vita contro", CUEC).
Meeting with a protagonist of the anti-fascist Italian resistance movement, whom the Nazis imprisoned in concentration camps in Germany since he was a partisan.
Intellectual, scholar and artist, he has led an exemplary life; he has a supple mind, he's cosmopolitan, he has lived between the Americas and Italy, and often meets young people and converses with them.
After the Resistance, he moved first to Argentina and Venezuela, then to the United States, where he taught Italian and Spanish in several schools and universities; at the same time he developed his artistic talent as a painter and sculptor. In Chicago he studied, created, displayed, and wrote several books.
At the end of the Eighties he returned to Italy and settled in Verona. He was appointed Honorary President of FIAP (Italian Federation of Partisan Associations).
The audience is invited to participate in the dialogue with Vittore Bocchetta
