Giorgio Agamben is one of the most important philosophers of our time and his significant contribution to philosophical contemporary debate is internationally recognised.
On this special occasion, prestigious guest of the hall of Astragali, he will present his last book entitled Nudità (Edizioni Nottetempo).
The meeting will be intoduced by Fabio Tolledi and will be followed by an open dialogue with the author.
Giorgio Agamben, has started his philosophical production in the sixties, starting an extraordinary route that brought him to Germany, France, United States and many other countries where he has met many intellectuals and philosophers who definitively marked the twentieth century's thought, such as Heidegger, Deleuze, Lyotard, Derrida, Nancy, Klossowski.
The essays he has been publishing, in more than forty years of his career, are many, it is enough to quote works which today are milestones of contemporary philosophy like: Stanze. La parola e il fantasma nella cultura occidentale (Einaudi, 1977); La comunità che viene (Einaudi,1990); Bartleby, la formula della creazione, written together with Gilles Deleuze (Quodlibet,1993); Quel che resta di Auschwitz. L'archivio e il testimone (Bollati Boringhieri,1998), Profanazioni (2005), L'aperto. L'uomo e l'animale (Bollati Boringhieri, 2002), Ninfe (Bollati Boringhieri, 2007), Nudità (Nottetempo, 2009).
It will be a precious occasion to approach the though of this eminent author, to hear from his voice something about his path and the constant recalling to a philosophy able to re-activate «an essential relation with the creation».

In the meeting of Friday, Fabio Acca, through some videos contributions, will make an excursus on contemporary theatre and the Artaudian influences, in fact, many artists have chosen “to do” Artaud but we don’t know who among them have crossed the Artaudian experience with utopias and rifts. So, what’s the meaning of “ doing” Artaud? Fabio Acca will try to open a possible space of thought, starting from the masters who, in a certain way, have practiced the model of the Artaud lesson.
At 8:00 pm in the spaces of Teatro Elio in Calimera Astràgali Teatro will host the director and actor Gary Brackett of Living Theatre Europe.

La complessa figura e l'opera di Paul Valéry, tra i più importanti poeti e scrittori del nostro tempo, sarà al centro dell'evento che avrà inizio alle ore 21, presso il Teatro Elio di Calimera.
I suoi versi e le sue parole faranno da controcanto alla musica e alle immagini curate, per l'occasione, dalla studiosa Benedetta Zaccarello (Equipe del Centre Nationale de la Recherche Scientifique di Parigi), dal poeta Giuseppe Paiano, dal regista Fabio Tolledi e dagli attori di Astràgali.
Lo spettacolo partirà da una voce, un suono, una nota, un'immagine in cui riverbera la scrittura di Valéry, per cui si scrive come si parla ad un albero. E questo parlare è un parlare semi-interiore, semi-articolato, mentre il verso si incaglia in una carnalità che è sempre, eversivamente, innervata nell'altro.
At 7:00 pm the Auditorium of Zollino will host an open dialogue on the themes of the last book by Eugenio Imbriani, La sarta di Proust, Antropologia e confezioni (Edizioni di pagina).
This original title chosen by the author refers to the last pages of the Recherche by Proust, where the French writer affirms that the construction of his book, does not start, ambitiously, like a cathedral, but more like a dress.
The metaphor, in Imbriani's view, helps to read, behind the notions used as common sense in society (such as the continuity in time, the permanence of tradition, identity), the interventions, the conflicts, the choices, the cultural policies, where culture is not only a weft context, but also a fabric, work of assembly, of suiting, darning, cuts, arrangements.
Sound and poetry alchemies on the stage of Teatro Elio of Calimera with this tribute to the work of Octavio Paz. Astragali+ hosts the music of Tobias Gonzàlez Jimènez (guitar) and Gina Lacorazza (voice and percussions) that will make a plunge into the legends, rythms and songs of the populations of Latin America, together with the poems read by Fabio Tolledi.
The suggestions created by the writing with “green ink” of Octavio Paz* will give the rhythm to this evening, in a continuous flow of music, words, images and sounds.
At 7:00 at the Auditorium of Zollino Dj War and Pietro Fumarola will give life to an evening of music and discussion on the complex question of the indipendent music in Italy. The debate-meeting will be opened by Pietro Fumarola, professor of Sociology of religions at the University of Salento, engaged for more than 25 years on the topics of the trance and dissociation. He has shared with the scholar Georges Lapassade a long route of research focusing on the new musical languages. These alternative languages, such as rap, reggae, hip hop, are not only musical phenomena but also important indicators of contemporanenity.
Afterward the last cd of Dj War entitled War Signals vol.2 will be presented, produced by the indipendent publishing houses Segnale Digitale and Warsound. that collects the contributions of more than 20 among young singers and veterans of the reggae Italian scene. Finally a musical aperitif will be offered with a selection by Dj War.
Astràgali Teatro chooses to make a tribute to the anniversary of the Liberation Day, on the stage of Teatro Elio in Calimera, with an event starting at 9:00.
For the occasion it will present a path made of music and words to remember a fundamental moment of Italian history such as the Resistance is. The readings are taken from some letters of prisoners sentenced to death during the Resistance, as well as from novels like Sergente nella neve and Ritorno sul Don by Mario Rigoni Stern, Un anno sull'Altipiano by Emilio Lussu+, and other important texts by Antonio Gramsci and Nuto Revelli*. This words will be mixed with the music of the partisans songs.
At 07:00 pm, at the Auditorium of Zollino, an open dialogue with Carlo Formenti, moving from the suggestions and wonders launched in his two last books Cybersoviet (Raffaello Cortina editore) and Se questa è democrazia (Manni editore).
Professor of Theory and technique of the new medias at the University of Salento, Formenti has been trade union director, editor of the cultural monthly Alfabeta, journalist in several important headings among which l’Europeo and il Corriere della Sera (with which he continues to collaborate), director of the on line magazine Quinto Stato, he has published several essays and fiction books such as: La fine del valore d’uso (Feltrinelli 1980); Prometeo e Hermes (Liguori, 1988); Immagini del vuoto (Liguori, 1989); Piccole apocalissi (Cortina, 1991); Nove angeli neri (Il Saggiatore, 1996); Nell’anno della Signora (Shake, 1999).
Cybersoviet- Utopie postdemocratiche e nuovi media, book that completes a trilogy started with Incantati dalla rete (Cortina 2000) and Mercanti di Futuro (Einaudi 2002), faces an analysis of the so called digital age, observing the effects of the rapid diffusion of the new communication technologies on the evolution of the democratic systems.
At 09:00 pm at Teatro Elio in Calimera, the music of Gianni and Rocco De Santis together with the voice of Fabio Tolledi will be proposed. Musical and poetical wefts moving from the songs of the Sacred Passion and knotted with texts by authors, milestones of the Italian literature, such as Iacopone da Todi and Andrea Zanzotto.
The Passion's songs fall within the repertory of the folk music tradition of Salento, handed down orally. They were allowed to be sung only from ten days before Easter until the next Thursday. In this event they will be mixed to the music written by the two guest musicians, sons of the poet Cesare De Santis, founders of Avleddha, the ethnic music research group that joins the tradition of Greek- Salentinian music to new sounds. Together with them on stage there will be Fabio Tolledi, who will give voice to some poetical texts of different authors. And it is from a work by Zanzotto that Astragali chooses the title of this event linked to the feast of the passage.
At 9 p.m. at Teatro Elio of Calimera Fiamme, Ferro e Fuoco- la Passione, la Tenacia, l’Amore a performance that retraces musics, songs and verses of the first Baroque period written by Spanish Apulian and Greek-Salentinian authors.

Saturday 28 and Saunday 29 March at the Auditorium of Zollino two days dedicated to contemporary music, in particular to the work of the composer Enrico Renna.
Starting on Saturday 29 at 7:00 pm with a guided listening to the music of Renna by Canio Fidanza. While on Sunday 30 at 7:00 pm the master Fidanza will perform the Renna’s composition for piano Romanze senza parole.
It is a composition made of 27 short pieces, inspired by 27 poems of authors such as Eliot, Leopardi, Pierro, Vitale and Neruda. In this work the relationship between word and sound is not descriptive but structural. It refers to a wider musical form conscious of the contemporary development of compositional language.
Enrico Renna is master in composition at the Conservatory San Pietro a Majella of Naples, where he obtained a degree in flute, piano, composition and orchestra direction.
At 9:00 pm, Teatro Elioin Calimera will host as special guest the poet Jolanda Insana, one of the most original and im$portant voices of contemporary writing. In the performance entitled Jolanda Insana reads Jolanda Insana the poet from Messina will open a route of reading dedicated to her powerful poetical production. The selection of readings will start from the texts published on Alias-Manifesto, dedicated to the earthquake of Messina, in addition to some other unpublished texts, and will continue with pieces from La bestia clandestina partially included in the collection Tutte le poesie (19977-2006), published by Garzanti in 2007, that anticipate the new work. During the years her “telluric” poetical writing has raised the attention of great readers and critics, such as Porta, Giudici, Ferroni, and Giovanni Raboni, who has worked for the diffusion and the valorisation of her work. Winner of the Viareggio Prize in 2002, she is also translator of classical and contemporary authors, among whom Sappho, Plautus, Euripides, Callimachus, Lucretius, Andrea Cappellano. She has moreover adapted in verses some works of Ahmad Shawqi and Aleksandr Tvardovskij. Jolanda Insana’s writing, in all her production, from Sciarra amara (1977) to Fendenti fonici (1982), from Il collettame (1985) to La clausura (1987), from Medicina carnale (1994) to L'occhio dormiente (1997), La stortura (2002), La tagliola del disamore (2005), Tutte le poesie 1977-2006 (2007) and Satura di cartuscelle (2009), is oriented to withstand the collision and the weight of life. And in this weight the tongue of the body emerges in its uneasy and violent implications, in its impossible absence, a body that gives itself in a multiple tongue passionately possessed, loved.
The Auditorium of Zollino will host at 07:00 pm an encounter with the artist, photographer Fernando Bevilacqua entitled Omaggio ai padri e ai figli. An excursus through the places and above all the stories and the faces of the people linked to the author by friendship, estimation and artistic passion.

Feu la cendre questo il titolo originale di una delle opere filosofiche che hanno segnato il nostro
Novecento. Ciò che resta del fuoco, nella traduzione italiana, opera simbolo del grande filosofo francese Jacques Derrida, un piccolo e prezioso manifesto del suo pensiero.
Ciò che resta del fuoco è il titolo che Astràgali Teatro sceglie per il secondo appuntamento della settimana, che si terrà sempre negli spazi di Astràgali, in via G. Candido, 23 a Lecce alle ore 21.
Si tratta di una lettura-concerto in cui a stralci di testo di Ciò che resta del fuoco, scelti da Fabio Tolledi, regista e direttore artistico di Astràgali, si alternerà la musica del trio jazz composto da Marco Bardoscia (al contrabbasso), Mauro Tre (al pianoforte) e Marcello Nisi (alla batteria).
Ciò che resta del fuoco è un omaggio all’opera di Derrida che riprende e sollecita una frase (il y a là cendre) indicibile, dolorosa e straordinaria nel suo essere commemorazione, sigillo. Là, vi è cenere; vi è la cenere. Un polylogue di voci che dipana, intreccia, annoda e disperde

Tutto è possibile in arte è il leit motiv di Fluxus, movimento statunitense fondato nel 1961 da George Maciunas, perché l'arte, se è tale, non può mai essere avulsa dal contesto in cui opera, da ciò che accade.
Virgo-Fluxus, con Fabio Tolledi, Mauro Tre e Antonio De Luca. Un happening-omaggio al movimento per le arti Fluxus che conta, tra i suoi membri, artisti come Cage, Cunningham, Johns, Ono, Friedman.
Da Fluxus partirà il nuovo appuntamento promosso da Astràgali Teatro che sarà anch'esso un happening, in cui le sculture sonore di Antonio De Luca (artista visuale, autore di importanti opere visuali e sonore insieme come Agonia dell'ombra, Imenofonemi, Iside e i desiderosi, e di sculture sonore quali l'Imbutofono) e le sperimentazioni sonore di Mauro Tre, musicista salentino tra i più amati ed apprezzati, si mescoleranno e confonderanno con le parole di Fabio Tolledi, poeta e regista di Astràgali Teatro. La collaborazione artistica più che ventennale tra Fabio Tolledi, Mauro Tre e Antonio De Luca troverà spazio in Virgo-Fluxus, vero e proprio mantra visivo, uditivo ed emozionale.

Le suggestioni tra ricerca musicale e parola poetica saranno il filo rosso della serata pensata da Fabio Tolledi e Mauro Tre per Concerto per Carla Petrachi.
La serata è un omaggio a Carla Petrachi, giornalista, instancabile promotrice di eventi culturali da oltre 25 anni, da quando nel 1981 fonda, assieme a Marcello Primiceri, Astràgali Teatro, uno spazio nuovo, una sfida aperta allora a Lecce.
La creazione di Astragali nasceva dall’idea di creare un luogo per fare teatro, per formare attori, per dare vita ad uno spazio di circolazione dei discorsi e delle pratiche, per tessere trame e relazioni tra il Salento ed il resto del mondo. Da allora Astràgali è stato soprattutto questo. Un luogo della ricerca teatrale, con un versante produttivo originale, un luogo vivo al centro della città.
Concerto per Carla Petrachi, si colloca nella linea della ricerca sonora sviluppata in questi anni da Astràgali, con un contrappunto che nasce dalla sensibilità musicale di Mauro Tre al pianoforte e dalla scrittura poetica di Fabio Tolledi, poeta, scrittore, regista e direttore artistico di Astràgali Teatro, che, per l’occasione, sceglie di leggere alcuni dei versi più significativi della sua produzione poetica.
