Partirò prima per le Canarie, molto probabilmente per Las Palmas, e da lì per L’America, il Brasile. Che cosa ci vado a fare? Posso solo rispondere che lo scopo del viaggio è andare a vedere le farfalle. Arthur Cravan
Napoli ￫ Isole Eolie
Vesuvio ￫ Vulcano
Opening/partenza da Fondazione Morra Greco, Napoli
Venerdi 10 giugno 2022, h.16.00 to 18.00 (free entry)
Dal 10 giugno al 13 giugno inaugura la prima edizione di Volcanic Attitude, Festival di cultura contemporanea, che attraverserà, partendo in nave da Napoli, i territori dell’arcipelago delle isole Eolie.
Volcanic Attitude è un festival di cultura contemporanea che ospita artisti e ricercatori in un programma di talk, performance e happening tra Napoli e Vulcano (Isole Eolie).
Volcanic Attitude mette in relazione le ricerche di artisti e esperti provenienti da varie discipline scientifiche con i territori vulcanici e le forze primarie della natura, per indagare le modalità con cui agiamo e pensiamo e come queste si modificano in rapporto al luogo e agli strumenti che usiamo. Con ciclicità annuale e con una forte spinta propulsiva, il Festival si sviluppa in due momenti: il già avvenuto APPROACH / AVVICINAMENTO (28 settembre – 2 ottobre 2021), fase di ricerca e residenza artistica e il prossimo LANDING / ATTERRAGGIO, momento di restituzione al pubblico delle esperienze e risultati emersi durante la residenza.
Volcanic Attitude darà avvio al festival a NAPOLI con l’inaugurazione presso la Fondazione Morra Greco (10 giugno 2022, ore 16.00). Proseguirà a bordo della NAVE LAURANA, Mar Tirreno, e sull’isola di VULCANO, ISOLE EOLIE con un programma di talk, performance e happening. Tra gli eventi volti all’esplorazione e alla scoperta del territorio di Vulcano, un viaggio panoramico in barca fio a Gelso e la passeggiata di esplorazione alle pendici del cratere. A declinare il tema, a partire dalla propria ricerca e pratica personale sono stati invitati gli artisti Fabrizio Perghem, con un’installazione sul processo di distillazione dei fumi vulcanici, Fabrizio Vatieri, con una performance sonora in tre atti, e il collettivo Zapruder che proporrà degli incontri come esercizi di medianicità. Gli esperti scientifici invitati sono Chiara Boschi, Prima Ricercatrice, CNR – Istituto di Geoscienze e Georisorse, Andrea Dini, Primo Ricercatore, CNR – Istituto di Geoscienze e Georisorse, Andrea Orlando, Archeoastronomo – IAS Istituto di Archeoastronomia Siciliana, Salvatore Passaro, Geologo marino, CNR – Istituto per le scienze marine.
Il festival è nato da un’idea del collettivo Cose Cosmiche (Helga Franza e Silvia Hell), direzione artistica del progetto, e sviluppato con la collaborazione di Giulia Restifo e Susanna Ravelli.

I will leave first for the Canary Islands, most likely for Las Palmas, and from there to America, Brazil. What am I going to do there? I can only answer that the purpose of the trip is to go and see butterflies. Arthur Cravan

From 10 to 13 June, the first edition of Volcanic Attitude, Festival of Contemporary Culture will be held, crossing the territories that make up the archipelago of the Aeolian Islands.
The festival is the result of an idea by the collective Cose Cosmiche (Helga Franza and Silvia Hell), the artistic directors of the project, and developed with the collaboration of Giulia Restifo and Susanna Ravelli.
Volcanic Attitude aims to connect the research of artists and scientists with volcanic territories and the primary forces of nature. In its peculiar itinerancy and spirit of connection with the host territories, the Festival encourages interdisciplinary and interpersonal encounters and exchanges, also involving local communities as well as new and regular visitors. By fostering renewed synergies between the practices of art, scientific thought and the most advanced and current research on nature, the aim is to stimulate new points of view and reflection on acting and thinking in the contemporary world, in relation to the place we are at and the tools we are using.
Designed to be staged every year and with a strong driving force to it, the Festival will be developed in two stages: the already completed Volcanic Attitude. Approach / Avvicinamento (28 September – 2 October 2021), a research and artistic residency phase, and the forthcoming Volcanic Attitude. Landing / Atterraggio, providing a moment of restitution to the public of the experiences and results that emerged during the residency.
The artists Fabrizio Perghem, with an installation on the process of distilling volcanic fumes, Fabrizio Vatieri, with a sound performance in three acts, and the Zapruder collective, which will propose mediumistic exercises – have been invited to interpret the theme, on the basis of their own research and practice. The scientific experts invited are Chiara Boschi, First Researcher, Institute of Geosciences and Geo-resources – CNR, Andrea Dini, First Researcher, Institute of Geosciences and Geo-resources – CNR, Andrea Orlando, Archaeoastronomer – IAS Sicilian Institute of Archaeoastronomy, Salvatore Passaro, Marine Geologist, Institute for Marine Sciences – CNR.
Volcanic Attitude will launch Landing / Atterraggio in Naples with an inauguration at the Fondazione Morra Greco (10 June 2022, 4 pm). It will continue on board the ship Laurana on the Tyrrhenian Sea, and on the island of Vulcano, Aeolian Islands, with a programme of workshops, conferences and performances. Events aimed at exploring and discovering the Vulcano area will include a panoramic boat trip to Gelso and a walk on the slopes of the La Fossa crater .
The festival will be presented in two meetings open to the public on 24 May, at 7 pm at Non Riservato, Via Giovanni Paisiello, 5 – Milan and on 25 May, at 6.30 pm at SuperOtium, Via Santa Teresa degli Scalzi, 8 – Naples.
For its first edition, Volcanic Attitude, Festival of Contemporary Culture has received the support of Caronte & Tourist, a private shipping company founded in 2003 covering maritime connections to and from Sicily, and Hotel Les Sables Noir & Spa, a typical Aeolian hotel in the oldest of Sicilian traditions.

Vorrei vedere la primavera in Perù, farmi amica una giraffa e quando, nel Petit Larousse, leggo che il Rio delle Amazzoni, con i suoi 6420 chilometri di lunghezza, è per portata il primo fiume al mondo, mi fa un tale effetto che non potrei nemmeno dirlo in prosa.
