Siamo Foresta

Siamo Foresta (We Are Forest) draws its inspiration from an aesthetic and political vision of the forest as an egalitarian multiverse of living beings, human and non-human, offering an allegory of a possible world beyond our anthropocentrism. The exhibition stages an unprecedented encounter between thinkers and defenders of the forest, Indigenous artists – from New Mexico to the Paraguayan Chaco through the Amazon – and non-Indigenous artists (Brazil, China, Colombia, France).

The exhibition Siamo Forestais accompanied by a Public Programme curated by philosopher Emanuele Coccia. To celebrate the opening of the exhibition and its wide variety of expressive languages, inspirations and topics represented by its artists, thirteen of them meet with Emanuele Coccia and anthropologist Bruce Albert, Artistic Director of Siamo Foresta. An open conversation that will continue with a programme of encounters in the autumn.
