At the Galleria San Fedele in Milan, the body-talk performance "Something is Dreaming Us" by Manuela Gandini is making a comeback after a successful Italian tour and a stop in Sarajevo. This renewed version promises to be even more impactful as it will continue in a former German concentration camp, enhancing the ethical and symbolic density of the piece. The performance acts as a medium for traversing European memory, connecting historical trauma with contemporary expression.

The core of Gandini's monologue features two significant figures: Eva Braun and Lee Miller. As a multifaceted artist—journalist, art critic, educator at NABA, and performer—Gandini constructs a hybrid and original format that blends critical reflection, stage presence, and ritual tension. The 90-minute performance combines spoken word, images, and sound, featuring music and sound design by Brando Barbieri, creating an immersive experience that guides the audience through the "dark zone" of the 20th century, exploring the aesthetic of the Third Reich and its implications.

This project not only showcases Gandini's artistic versatility but also emphasizes the importance of remembering and engaging with the past. By situating the performance in a concentration camp, Gandini elevates the critical discourse surrounding the Holocaust and its ongoing relevance. Such an endeavor invites viewers to reflect on historical atrocities and their implications in today's world, making art a powerful vehicle for memory and advocacy against forgetting.
