Volcanic Attitude is a contemporary culture festival that hosts artists and researchers in a programme of happenings, lectures and performances between Naples and Vulcano (Aeolian Islands).
Volcanic Attitude connects the research of artists and experts from various scientific disciplines with volcanic territories and the primary forces of nature, In its peculiar itinerancy and spirit of connection with the territories, the Festival encourages interdisciplinary and interpersonal encounters and exchanges, also involving local communities as well as new and regular visitors. By fostering renewed synergies between the practices of art, scientific thought and the most advanced and current research on nature, the aim is to stimulate new points of view and reflection on acting and thinking in the contemporary world, in relation to the place we are at and the tools we are using.
Volcanic Attitude darà avvio al festival a Napoli con una performance presso la Morra Greco Foundation. Proseguirà poi a bordo della nave Laurana attrversando il Mar Tirreno, e approderà sull’isola di Vulcano continuando il programma di talk, performance e happening.
A declinare il tema, a partire dalla propria ricerca sono stati invitati gli artisti Fabrizio Perghem, con un’installazione sul processo di distillazione dei fumi vulcanici, Fabrizio Vatieri, con una performance sonora in tre atti dedicata all’amore tra il vulcanologo e il vulcano, e il collettivo Zapruder che proporrà una pratica collettiva guidata con degli ‘esercizi di medianicità’.
Gli esperti scientifici invitati sono Chiara Boschi, Prima Ricercatrice, CNR – Istituto di Geoscienze e Georisorse, Andrea Dini, Primo Ricercatore, CNR – Istituto di Geoscienze e Georisorse, Andrea Orlando, Archeoastronomo, IAS – Istituto di Archeoastronomia Siciliana, Salvatore Passaro, Geologo marino, CNR – Istituto di Scienze Marine.

Artist
His works are ‘document-devices’, in the form of audio tracks, Polaroids and sculptures, aimed at triggering the visualisation of situations and materials that are no longer present or invisible. dispositivi-documento, sotto forma di tracce audio, polaroid e sculture, volti a innescare la visualizzazione di situazioni e materiali non più presenti o invisibili.
Artist
An artist and photographer, he trained as an architect. His artistic practice is based on various disciplines including performance, photography and music. His research focuses on the identity of places, the man–space relationship and the dialectic between artistic research and the working dimension of the artist, investigating the meaning of work as human performance and its relationship with the poetic and spiritual dimension of the individual.
Artists’ Collective
Their practice is expressed through film sets, happenings, acoustics, sculpture, videos and performances that incorporate spectatorship into the notion of the living image.
