NUTRI | MINDS

The world keeps surprising us and we keep learning.
continue to learn.
_j. m. coetzee_


Knots upon knots heaping up, another Germination immediately springs up, And renews each time the first form.
But not always the same, to tell the truth.
_j. w. goethe_

Not just bread!"Nutriments", the new cycle of meetings of Lavori in corso, is in the sign of the great theme of EXPO 2015, and proposes a guide to regenerate spirit and mind. We need sources of inspiration to face the present and meet the future, rather than ready-made solutions. Unexpressed questions, as if they were frozen waiting for the right moment or the right words to say them, require places to listen.
Too caught up in dead-end debates, stuck, stopped waiting, discourses on man and for man are suspended, robbed of the desire to search, to set out.
Constitutive and founding myths are needed, not simulacra behind which meaning and value are lost. The words, the perspectives, the images with which man tries to interpret himself and reality are insufficient if not downright harmful, they often imprison us in the impossible, in the ways already experimented, creating useless repetitions and few ideas to go further. Resignation and resilience are the attitudes that are widespread or suggested in order to access the future. Where has the wonder gone? Where is the pleasure of existing? Where is the philosophical wisdom of man caught up in his own journey?
