(AGENPARL) – Fri 14 June 2024 BORDER THEATER 2024
Monday 17 June, at Villa Stonorov-Fondazione Vivarelli in Pistoia, the final event of the 2024 edition of Teatri di Confine, the event dedicated to the contemporary scene, created by Teatri di Pistoia and the Fondazione Toscana Spettacolo onlus.
On Monday 17 June (9.15 pm) at Villa Stonorov-Fondazione Vivarelli in Pistoia, Tindaro Granata brings to the stage his VORREI UNA VOCE, a show co-produced by LAC Lugano Arte e Cultura in collaboration with Proxima Res.
I would like a voice is a monologue constructed with Mina’s songs sung in playback, strongly inspired by the long theatrical journey that Tindaro Granata created at the Piccolo Shakespeare theatre, inside the Messina prison, with high security inmates. The fulcrum of dramaturgy is the dream: losing the ability to dream means letting a part of oneself die. “We staged Mina’s last live concert – recalls Tindaro Granata – with the idea of entering one’s own memories, one’s own space where everything would be possible, recovering an canceled femininity, the freedom of expression of one’s soul and of your own body. […] I found myself, with them, looking for the meaning of everything I had done up to then. […] In I would like a voice on stage there is only me, some of the girls I bring with me their eyes, their gestures, their tears and smiles. Thanks to them I tell stories of people who want an important redemption from life: they want love for life, […]”.
The final event on Monday 17 June will be hosted at Villa Stonorov-Fondazione Vivarelli in PISTOIA.
The Jorio Vivarelli Foundation aims to conserve, protect and enhance the Maestro’s work and promote cultural initiatives and new artistic projects. It organizes and sponsors non-profit exhibitions, art publications and cultural initiatives, including research activities.
The Foundation is based in Villa Stonorov, which was founded at the end of the 1960s from the project of Oskar Stonorov, one of the greatest exponents of rationalist architecture who was part, with Mies van der Rohe, Gropius and Mendelsohn, of the wave of exiles who between the 1920s and 1930s they left Europe for the United States, thus contributing to introducing and spreading the acquisitions and experiences of the Modern Movement in the American reality of the New Deal. Stonorov cultivated an incurable passion for sculpture. The villa he designed, apparently simple, actually turns out to be expertly cared for down to the smallest details, details that make it profoundly Tuscan: from the red terracotta to the ocher colored walls, up to the large arched French windows that open onto a rich park. of olive trees, cypresses, mimosas, acacias, lime trees and poplars. The internal spaces contain sculptures, drawings, engravings, medals, coins and anything else that is part of Jorio’s multifaceted artistic production.
The Foundation has the largest collection of works by the Master, consisting of sculptures, drawings, medal production and a collection of plaster casts and sketches. It holds the archive of Jorio’s entire artistic career and of the exhibitions and research dedicated to him from 1946 to today and since 1999 also of the activities developed by the Foundation. The archive is made up of documents, correspondence, photographs, press reviews that accompany his work and the exhibitions dedicated to him. The Foundation also houses the Maestro’s library with over two thousand volumes, numerous films and documentaries.
In recent years, the Foundation has set itself the objective of promoting the knowledge and development of contemporary art. For this purpose, it has equipped itself with a guesthouse, created in the rooms that were the Maestro’s home, using it as an “Artist’s Residence”.
Many initiatives are dedicated to the younger generations, often in collaboration with local schools, through their own activities and also with the establishment of scholarships for students in the province. The activities aimed at younger people, also organized in collaboration with cultural associations with pedagogical purposes, perform an educational function to introduce them to art and also offer opportunities for socialization for children and families during periods of school closure.
