Beauty Festival

The traditional cultural review of Verona, created and organized every spring by the Cultural Association IDEM - Paths of Relationship, returns for its twelfth edition.

This edition, titled "Wonder", features a curated selection of personalities from the worlds of art, cinema, music, philosophy, and literature presenting lectures and unpublished theatrical monologues, national premieres, and concerts on the stages of various exceptional locations (the Roman Theater in Verona, as well as many off-city dates hosted in highly evocative settings that express the uniqueness of our history, art, and culture).

The first Verona date of the review is September 14 with Aldo Cazzullo, followed by Arianna Porcelli Safonov, Alessandro Bergonzoni, Massimo Recalcati, Umberto Galimberti, Paolo Rossi, Edoardo Bennato, and Noemi in the following days.

Alcide Marchioro, the artistic director, comments on the common thread of the review with these words: “The Festival will focus on the original emotion of Beauty, wonder, the highest meeting point between the sensory and the spiritual. Enchantment and amazement as projections towards the beyond, in depth and upwards. We will reflect on and experience wonder as a crossing of a boundary, a pleasure that fascinates and unsettles; an aesthetic contact with the mystery that is self-discovery and investigation of the world”
