Winds from the East - Venti di Levante is a cultural showcase that intertwines visual arts, music, and workshops to give voice to the contemporary Iranian artistic landscape. Through perspective and material, the project aims to serve as a space for shared reflection on themes of memory, body, identity, and social transformations.
The pathway opens at the Library of Trichiana with the solo exhibition of Samereh Sagheb, an exhibition titled Iran | Beyond the Gaze of Women, enriched by an in-depth meeting designed to overcome stereotypes and penetrate the complexity of the female experience.
At the Palace of the Countesses, the conceptual and multidisciplinary research of Nasser Teymourpour comes to life, whose work transforms matter into a space of tension between official narratives and individual experience.
Alongside the exhibition, the same palace hosts the artistic workshop led by the RIWAR collective (Body | Memory | Narrative), an open workshop of dialogue and experimentation where participants explore their own stories, transforming them into visual expression.
Finally, the Auditorium of San Pietro a Mel welcomes the evocative music of Alireza Mortazavi in the concert The Lost Persia, a sonic journey entrusted to the vibrations of the santur capable of stitching together ancient traditions and contemporary sensibilities.
