Effetto 48 - 2022

From July 15th to 17th, 2022, Effetto48 returns, a multidisciplinary event hosted by the village of Panicale (PG).

The town, with its streets, squares, gardens, and diverse facilities, will host over 30 events within a span of 48 hours.

Concerts, performances, screenings, and exhibitions will bring to life the third edition of the event, subtitled "primomovimento" (first movement), as the opening act of a three-year project inspired by Jack London's novel "The Star Rover."

"Primomovimento" aims to explore the realm of creativity and revolves around the theme of the labyrinth, whose mystery becomes more elusive the more it is investigated.

Stretto tra i denti

Inspired by a true story, "Stretto tra i denti" is a show that tells a borderless, boundless, toothless journey in search of a new smile.

A surreal adventure that attempts to leave behind a wretched reality of missed, postponed, and chewed smiles caused by human and economic misery.

Effetto 48 - 2021

Effetto 48 is a multidisciplinary festival that takes place over 48 hours in 19 locations located between the village of Panicale (PG) and its surroundings. Over 80 artists will be involved in the second edition to form a billboard featuring more than 30 events, including theatre and dance performances, concerts, screenings, exhibitions and workshops.

This year Poetry and Laughter will be the themes proposed to the invited artists, most of whom will present new productions created ad hoc in the Panicale area.

Among the artists there will be: Francesco Di Leva, Roberto Abbiati, Hawad, Orchester Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp, Antonino Siringo, Antonio Raia, Nuovo Balletto di Toscana, Elisa Cuppini, Alberto Masala, Paolo Fiore Angelini.

Piano Day 2021

On the afternoon of Sunday 28 March 2021, the village of Panicale, a few kilometres from Perugia, will welcome artists, students and piano and music lovers to its eighteenth-century Cesare Caporali Theatre for Piano Day 2021.

The concerts will be broadcast live on Facebook and, thanks to the audio diffusion in the streets and clubs of Panicale, they will be available to the whole village.

Effetto 48 - 2020

A multidisciplinary festival that takes place over 48 hours: music, theater, performance, literature, cinema and dance follow one another and intertwine, giving shape to a collective representation, staged from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon.

"Effetto 48" is an opportunity to respond to the need to meet each other, to share, to discuss and listen, to discover, rediscover and to say something. The artists, the public and the inhabitants of Panicale together become protagonists and performers of a short but intense time. The art of meeting in four turns of the clock.

Cadevo

The Il Pavone collective, through a research path undertaken in the Sicilian countryside, aims to generate an act focused on the relationship between the permanence of the gesture and the motion generated by it.

This research is also inspired by the life and works of Joseph Beuys.

Appunti per un film: dialoghi con Fabio Donato

Funky Tomato

Funky Tomato was a Benefit Company produced by Ponte di Archimede Produzioni from 2015 until 2017.

The project combined agricultural practices and creative practices to investigate the social. The resulting cultural movement led to three tours in the ghettos between Puglia and Calabria and events such as the Baba Sissoko concert at MACRO in Rome or the first edition of the Sky Arte Festival in Naples.
