The Centre of Contemporary Art in Torun is opening today, Friday 18 of May, a news exhibition titled Theatre of Life: One and many Actions curated by Dobrila Denegri, Artistic Director of the Centre of Contemporary Art in Torun. This new exhibitive project is dedicated to the artistic practices that looked for confluence between art, experimental music, new dance and theatre. It aim to highlight these practices that challenges social conventions and that searches for alternative models of art and life.

 

The exhibition is enriched by the loan, from the UniCredit Art Collection, of the Patrick Tuttofuoco's work Chinese Theatre, an auditorium, placed in the main room, in which will been screened a selection of interconnected works by other artists, in a game "the Theatre in the theatre".
