Face Off. The theater goes to the museum. The museum goes to the theater.
Interviews, Italy, Lucca, 12 April 2010
Interdisciplinarity, interactivity and re-opening of emotions. These are the watchwords with which the Teatro del Giglio and the Lu.CCA - Lucca Center of Contemporary Art present to the public an innovative joint project. While maintaining their own institutional role and its specific cultural, for the first time a theater and a museum decided to gamble on "Face Off", a format created specifically to bring the public in all their artistic expressions. They do this through a novel mode. People are invited to participate, share and experience from within any artistic discipline.

No coincidence that the official presentation to the press of "Face Off", which was held Thursday, December 2, 2010 at Lu.CCA was a real story which involved performing in a synergistic way and the spectacular world of the theater and the visual arts. A true fusion of painting, music, acting, writing and speech.
The painter Giovanni Maranghi, the musician Stefano "Cocco" Cantini, the boys of the "Theatre Workshop for Admissions aware" of the Teatro del Giglio led by Cataldo Russo, and actor Nicola Cosentino have performed with performances that have emphasized the concept of contemporary art and universal art. For the occasion, the President of the Teatro del Giglio, Aldo Casali, and the President of Lu.CCA, Angelo Parpinelli, together with the directors of the respective structures, have stripped the clothes institutional roles for entering new and unconventional.

With "Face Off" in Lucca, things change. The theater goes to the museum and the museum goes to the theater. The Teatro del Giglio will "move" to Lu.CCA with a series of meetings (from 4 December 2010): in the seven talk show, in addition to the various theater actors, will be involved people from the world of the arts, psychiatry, psychology, journalism, fashion and culture in general. All moderated by the Director of Lu.C.C.A., Maurizio Vanni, which will propose through the current and agile cut, a revisitation of the themes of each work represented.
In turn, the Lu.C.C.A. will go up on stage at the Teatro del Giglio to present the form of an interdisciplinary account of the leading exhibitions in the calendar of next year. In this case, the Director of the Teatro del Giglio, Luigi Angelini, and Maurizio Vanni will work together to make a spectacle and emotionally evocative and enjoyable for all the production of an artistic event.
