The need for transversality, not to remain closed in one’s own narrow circle. The desire to share knowledge, to pool: knowledge, experience and ability.

The need for a strong sign in trying to manage the present, working for the future, in the belief in the immortality of the human race, in the certainty that the sacrifices of yesterday and today are the necessary corollary for tomorrow. The overcoming of the selfish term man with the broader concept of humanity… of the I with the we. Where the we is a representation of the past but also of the future. A policy for tomorrow that boldly and courageously opposes the possible catastrophe that looms on the horizon. When the river swells, the banks must be strengthened, before the flood destroys everything, or paradoxically, flattened completely so that the water can spread without causing too much damage. It happens that knowing how to surrender, one wins or at least does not lose completely. Recognize the danger in order to avoid it. Sometimes it is more fruitful to cast off the moorings and risk drifting rather than the stupid virile opposition to the hurricane. Apply intelligence, to recognize and then deal with constantly changing situations. For this we need a policy that converts to the ancient knowledge of the farmer. Of the seed planted, not only for the immediate but in the certainty that, even if you have to leave the land earlier than expected, there will always be someone who can enjoy the fruit. Then, even the hardest work becomes less tiring and everything takes its right form and even the “doing” stretches out in the time and space of the intimacy of the soul, opening up to unimaginable panoramas. This is the premise for a project: “Festival di Teatro”, now in its eighth year that stretches out, in the time and space that works in the intimacy of the soul and opens up to the panoramas of its environments. Jerzu, Ulassai, Osini, Perdasdefogu are not only four villages along a road, but also the sign of a stubborn resistance to homologation. The courageous search for its own specificity. The Ogliastra of the “heels” as a laboratory of art and culture, in dialectic between avant-garde and tradition, environment and community. A large artistic construction site where you can create taking inspiration from everything that dances around you. The “local” that confronts the “global” preserving its strong particular characteristic. Not the simple undergoing: speeches, laws, centrifuged methods of others in other contexts but the strength and the need to be a voice listened to in the global artistic concert.
