Decameron: streaming stories

Drawing inspiration from Giovanni Boccaccio's The Decameron, about a group of young people who stayed outside Florence for ten days to escape the Black Plague in 1348 and took turns in telling stories to pass the time, Triennale Milano has invited artists, designers, architects, intellectuals, musicians, singers, writers, directors and journalists to "inhabit" Triennale Milano’s empty spaces in order to develop a personal story. Every day at 5.00pm the stories will be broadcast live on the Triennale Milano Instagram channel. Today's guest, invited to talk with the curators of Triennale, is the American scholar and writer Peter Frase.
