The event “Luigi Nono, Contrappunto dialettico alla mente” will take place at Fondazione Prada’s Venice venue on Thursday, 24 November 2022, at 6.30 pm, as part of the fifth edition of the Festival Luigi Nono alla Giudecca titled “Contemporanei e allievi”. The acousmatic listening experience of Contrappunto dialettico alla mente (Luigi Nono, 1968) will be followed by a conversation between philosopher Massimo Cacciari, neurologist Daniela Perani and sound director Alvise Vidolin and a video screening featuring Nanni Balestrini reading the text of the composition. Contrappunto dialettico alla mente is a composition for radio broadcasting created by Luigi Nono in 1968. The work establishes an ideal dialogue with the exhibition ‘Human Brains: It Begins with an Idea’ – running at Ca’ Corner della Regina until 27 November 2022 – which traces the history of brain studies and neuroscience.
Admission is free upon booking.
