Photographic and video exhibition to illustrate pope Francis’ encyclical. Thirty unpublished pictures, flanking as many documental excerpts, proposed by three young artists, Laura Filippucci, Francesca Marinangeli and Eleonora Dottorini. The exhibition ends on Sunday 16 July.
“Everything is connected”: pope Francis submits a thoughtful consideration on the urgency of funneling human development on sustainable tracks, criticising technocracy and proposing to pledge to new living styles. Everything starts from St. Francis’ words “Praise Be To Ye, Lord”, excellent example of the care of what is helpless and of an undisputable sense for ecology.

ABECEDARIO AMERICANO
Auditorium della Stella
August 25, h 21.00
August 26, h. 18.00 and h. 21.00
August 27, h. 18.00
Abecedario Americano, a play by Director Giancarlo Sepe, will be staged at Spoleto’s Auditorium della Stella on August 25, 26 and 27. The show will portray US society at the end of World War II, its economic and cultural growth after the great depression of the 1930s.
Through American major literary authors, such as Steinbeck, Caldwell, O’Henry, O’Hara, Twain, Fitzgerald, Mansfield and many others, and the fundamental contribution of music and songs by Romberg, Lerner and Loewe, Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, the show will outline a likely story of the American family of that time, dealing with war events, defeats and victories, economic boom and cultural growth; the tragedies of a nation whose youngsters were always on the alert for a new conflict, or had to handle with the difficulties of reintegrating into a society who ran fast and did not pay them proper attention; the stories of ordinary people who lived passions and betrayals, births and deaths with the same vital emphasis, fearing the next war that would separate husbands, children and brothers from their families, creating pain, jealousy and revenge, as well as family dissipation. The American dream, which is still so alive today, clashes in fact with the instability of a world that is always on the verge of self-solving, where values have no meaning. The show is also inspired by some dialogues written for the best American cinema, musical theatre and American painting.
