Walk with Lucilla Barchetta: Esercizi di memoria condivisa tra noi, l'ambiente e lo smartphone
This walk will focus on the bodily, mnemonic, and emotional aspects of our relationship with the urban environment and its socio-ecological change. Through a shared and nomadic memory exercise, we will try to reconstruct the traces we have composed and scattered among bodies, the environment, and smartphones, to recognize and bring out the subjectivity of the environment and the bodies themselves that traverse it.
This walk is free and open to a maximum of 20 people. Comfortable clothing and suitable shoes are recommended. Participants can stop at any time.

Banchetto della rinascita: curated by Debora Incorvaia and Paolo Bosca
Banchetto della rinascita is a moment to share the feeling of the Earth and its rhythm, which emerges in the succession of seasons, marked by solstices and equinoxes. An opportunity to celebrate the cycle of life through a simple experience: gathering, cooking and eating together. As we eat, we intervene in things to make them assimilable, and in doing so, the barriers between inside and outside fall away; we directly experience decay and rebirth. Eating, listening, smelling, palpating, tasting: these are all ways of knowing both the world and ourselves in the reciprocity that binds us to vibrant nature.
The guiding idea of the Banchetto is the elements: earth, air, water and fire, which have been the common basis of all that exists for millennia. We share these roots with everything in the world, from the largest to the smallest, and we are as diverse as we are simple and akin to nature. Raw materials will be linked to the season and physiological cycles, cooking methods will trace ancestral traditions of transformation.
The meal will include flavors and recipes collected from the community of Orti Generali, to make the Banchetto a moment of sincere exchange between those who live it and those who visit it, and activate the collective memory of a place through the tastes that each person keeps in the archive of their affections. Food is a vehicle for sharing, a means of creating horizontal relationships. It involves man's being-body, his being vibrant matter and agglomerate in continuous evolution.
Banchetto della rinascita is free but booking is required.
at h. 15
Poetry Reading by ESP
As the final event of the day, the Ethereal Society of Poetry will read a selection of poems discussed in the reading groups of the past weeks. The theme of rebirth, central to the program and the texts, will be an occasion to celebrate the spring equinox. The event is open to all. Those who wish can contribute to the reading by bringing texts.
Ethereal Society of Poetry (ESP) is a project conceived by Davide La Montagna and Deborah Martino, born from the desire to raise awareness, promote, and make poetry accessible through collective and participative readings.
Biographies
The project is realized by Almanac Inn, Castello di Rivoli Museo d'Arte Contemporanea, and Orti Generali.
Vibrant Natures is realized with the support of Fondazione Compagnia di San Paolo, Fondazione CRT and Regione Piemonte.
