Manuela Gandini's art performance 'Qualcosa ci sta sognando' is returning to Galleria San Fedele in Milan, scheduled for 6 PM. This performance blends body-talk and critical thought, creating an immersive experience for its audience. It follows a successful four-year tour across Italy and a stop in Sarajevo, demonstrating its resonant themes and adaptability to different contexts. A notable aspect of the upcoming performance includes its continuation at an ex-German concentration camp, amplifying its ethical and symbolic weight.

The format of Gandini's work is described as a hybrid and original approach, intertwining different forms of expression such as teaching and performance art. The 90-minute experience combines spoken word, visuals, and sound, with contributions from sound designer Brando Barbieri, guiding the audience through critical reflections on the 20th century’s 'dark zone'. With a focus on the aesthetics of the Third Reich, historical avant-gardes, and contemporary art practices, the performance aims to provoke thought and evoke historical memories, intertwining personal and collective narratives.

As Gandini embarks on this performance journey, she reasserts her multifaceted persona as a journalist, art critic, educator at NABA, and performer. This initiative emphasizes the power of art to facilitate discussions around historical memory and cultural identity while inviting a diverse audience to witness the intersections of narrative and ritual, encouraging them to engage with complex themes that resonate through time.
