Thursday 21 May, at 6PM, a conversation between Łukasz Twarkowski and Graziano Graziani, on the Sagrato of the Teatro Strehler, along with Camilla Lietti and Maddalena Giovannelli, curators of a monograph dedicated to the director.
Łukasz Twarkowski (born 1983) is a creator of multimedia performances combining theatre and the visual arts. He places his projects in the context of extending reality through multimedia. A crucial element of Twarkowski's creative work is investigating the ability as well as limitations of theatre as a medium and tool of communication. By permanent deconstruction of narratives, questioning the fixed habits of the audience and by meaningful usage of new media, Twarkowski creates a new, original language of stage performance based on multimedia and, more widely, digital technologies.
His projects have been programmed at the most important festivals and stages of Europe, including: Holland Festival, Odéon – Théâtre de l’Europe, Ruhrtriennale, Festival de Otoño de Madrid, Wiener Festwochen, and Southbank Center in London. Currently, he is an associate artist of Onassis Stegi in Athens and at the Piccolo Teatro. During the 2024 edition of the Festival Presente Indicativo | Milano Porta Europa, Twarkowski staged Rohtko, his first time presenting a work in Italy. In the third edition of the Festival Presente Indicativo | Milano Crocevia, he brings ORACLE, a show about Alan Turing, the possibility of artificial intelligence, and the dark side of technology.
Free entry upon reservation at piccoloteatro.org, at the box office of Teatro Strehler, or at the box office line. Consult the box office schedule.
In case of bad weather, the event will take place at the Scatola Magica - Teatro Strehler
