Arriving at Triennale is the initiative—conceived by under-30s—aimed at exploring the theme of trust in individual and collective capacities, helping to overcome the sense of inadequacy in a chaotic present. The goal is to create an intergenerational dialogue around the concept of trust, bringing the perspective and contribution of the younger generation to the topic.

7 pm From Indifference to Restlessness With: Samuele Cornalba, writer, and Teodoro Cohen, philosopher Introduction: Francesca Fimeroni Moderation: Francesca Monti Samuele Cornalba and Teodoro Cohen explore the sense of disorientation felt by younger generations. The "living in an almost", described by Cornalba in his debut novel Bagai, portrays a suspended existence, where indifference becomes a barrier against a world that is difficult to decipher. Cohen, in his book L’epoca dell’intranquillità, proposes a different approach—engaging directly with reality and learning to cultivate an active unease. A dialogue on the importance of listening and proximity, as a way to counteract the paralysis of resignation.

This evening of laughter and reflection will dive into the central theme of Soul with a group of comedians taking turns on stage to explore everyday gestures, popular sayings, and clichés about trust.
