Attraversamenti Multipli
Attraversamenti Multipli is a festival created by Margine Operativo that questions the relationships between contemporary artistic languages and the present by inserting cross-disciplinary events in public spaces and in places that symbolize urban transformations.
Attraversamenti Multipli is a project that loves to move on the boundary lines between different artistic codes and in the areas of proximity between art and life.
The first edition took place in 2001 in Rome.

➞ is in close connection with the context in which it acts , it enhances, through its artistic actions, redeveloped urban spaces and protagonists of self-recovery processes, relating to the fabric of the community that welcomes it.

➞ It presents shows and performances with particular formats, both temporal and spatial, which question the relationships and boundaries between artistic action, spectators and places , and which seek to dissolve the boundaries between performer and spectator to build a meeting and a “space” to live .

Attraversamenti Multipli for the three-year period 2020 > 2022 is accompanied by the theme / slogan everything is connected. The butterfly effect concerns our fragility and our total interdependence. We are all interconnected through non-linear relationships.
We live on a damaged planet and, as Donna Haraway writes, the only solution is to build relational plots with the other: human individuals and other species. We are not self-sufficient, we are a complex and articulated reality. He chose to “inhabit” with his artistic actions for three consecutive years a densely populated area of Rome where a constant urban redevelopment is underway: the Quadraro district – and Toffia, a village in the province of Rieti. Two places that he has already crossed and where, he decides to “live” for three years to develop and “deposit” the synergistic interaction that has been built up with these spaces and with the realities that animate them.
Attraversamenti Multipli 2021 takes place
from 17 to 26 September in Rome
2 and 3 October in Toffia (Rieti).
In the 2021 programme – always in the perspective of the interconnection between artistic action / living spaces / people – there are performance site specific created for the festival in interaction with the spaces that welcome them, artistic projects with particular temporal and relational formats, performances that hybridize different artistic genres, open works in progress that show themselves to the public in their fragility, shows dedicated to new generations of spectators.
Attraversamenti Multipli 2021 proposes itself as a vital space created by the gazes that cross in the democracy of bodies, to share spaces / thoughts / actions all together.
