Talk
Homage to Sylvano Bussotti. A conversation
June 26 2025, 11.00am
Free admission upon registration
As part of the week dedicated to celebrating the LGBTQIA+ community, this event pays tribute to Sylvano Bussotti, an artist who boldly challenged the artistic and social conventions of his time. An avant-garde composer active in the 1950s and 1960s, Bussotti left a lasting mark on the history of music with his daring graphic innovations. His musical output is deeply intertwined with other forms of expression—literary, visual, theatrical, and cinematic—giving rise to a unique and multidimensional artistic language.
