After After Party
Screening and live programme curated by Lucrezia Calabrò Visconti and Barbara Casavecchia
A collaboration between Istituto Svizzero and Mousse
Free Entrance
Istituto Svizzero and Mousse invite audiences to share an evening born from the intersection of their respective practices. After After Party presents a programme of video and live performances, co-curated around a fil rouge that brings into dialogue Romane de Watteville’s exhibition at Istituto Svizzero with the editorial line of Mousse Magazine. The project focuses on the moment following collective celebration, exploring the party as a ritual capable of uniting through both loss and joy. The event, that also marks Mousse’s twentieth anniversary, will conclude with It’s ok to cry, a “sad karaoke” commissioned to artist Sara Leghissa.
Screenings by: Pauline Boudry / Renate Lorenz, Kantarama Gahigiri, Gabrielle Goliath, Lucia Martinez Garcia, Valentina Parati, Giulia Piscitelli, Maryam Tafakory, Jonas Ulrich.
Live by: Sara Leghissa
The evening will be preceded by a guided tour of Romane de Watteville’s exhibition I’ll miss you when I scroll away at H18:30.
