Nadia Lauro
9 April 2025, from 18h00 to 20h00
In this talk as part of the PACAP 8 / MyS cycle, we welcome artist and set designer Nadia Lauro, whose work has been developed in scenic spaces, landscape architecture, museums and other contexts dedicated to the performing and visual arts.
Over the last few decades, Lauro has designed scenographies, environments and installations with strong dramaturgical power, collaborating with creators and performers from different countries and artistic areas. Her practice proposes ways of seeing and being together, generating experiences that call for sensitive attention to presence, space and the collective imagination.
Nadia Lauro’s participation in this cycle is in line with the thinking behind PACAP 8 / MyS, where choreographic practices, critical thinking, visual landscapes and research into the body and the scene intersect.
This lecture will be conducted in English.
