From June 24 to 28, 2025, the fourth edition of Volcanic Attitude will explore a new journey between Naples, Vulcano, and Stromboli. It will be a Magnetic⭈Magmatic edition.
Un viaggio attraverso paesaggi vulcanici, dove l’energia della Terra incontra la nostra percezione del tempo e della trasformazione. Un’esperienza che unisce gli elementi primari e il loro continuo mutamento, riflettendo sulle forze invisibili che governano la materia, dal magma che pulsa nel pianeta alla vibrazione cosmica che tutto pervade.

The program
The Festival starts with a video of the artistic collective Shaken Grounds, made at the 2024 edition in Naples. We then embark on board of the ferry Laurana, with the message of Margherita Morgantin's work. It speaks about the inviolability of the body, both human and non-human, because it is precisely the sea that teaches us about fragility, oscillating between generativity and destruction. A mobile poetry is also created in the Super-8 film Stromboli with Roman Signer shooting a red silk ribbon across the crater during his 1992 trip to the island.

Immersion in the knowledge of volcanoes, in the imagery they generate in the perception of artists, in the fascination that captures the minds of scientists and researchers, in the curiosity that brings enthusiasts closer to the exploration of magmatic landscapes. Federica Di Carlo with volcanologist Francesco Sortino accompanies us with her artistic research into the transformative capacity of matter and the physical and chemical agents on the summit of the volcano. Symbolically, the day is an invitation to listen and meditate in an oasis of time suspended over the crater.
