GALILEI / 22
On the occasion of the second edition of the National Space Day (Dec. 16), a performance of music and readings by actor Bruno Lovadina and musicians Jacopo Gianninoto and Luca Chiavinato will be held in Bangkok, produced in collaboration with the University of Padua, the University of Venice, Assumption University of Bangkok, the City of Padua and Barco Theater.
The performance will unfold through a mix of Galileo’s writings and letters and lute music composed by Galileo’s father and brother, Vincenzo and Michelangelo Galilei, two of the greatest lutenists of their generation, supplemented by some musical improvisations. The performance will feature original visual artworks produced by young local artists with their interpretation of Galileo’s life and with English subtitles.
The selected artists will prepare the visual work inspired by their interpretation of Galileo’s life. The work will be used as a background during the performance and for a mini-exhibition related to the event. Afterwards, it will be exhibited in Padua for a repeat performance in collaboration with the University of Padua.
The event will also feature images that are part of the “Looking Beyond” exhibition, a photographic exhibition of satellite images from the COSMO-SkyMed constellation, the result of a collaboration with the Italian Space Agency (ASI) and Telespazio S.p.A. / e-Geos.
