“Buongiorno notte”: Writing workshop with Ilaria Vinci and Maria Luce Cacciaguerra

12.11.2026 H18:30-21:30

Maria Luce Cacciaguerra’s practice moves between poetry, voice, and publishing, and is always collaborative. She has exhibited at Museo Madre in Naples, and this year her text Operazioni di niente was selected for Dial a Poem Italia, part of the John Giorno Poetry System’s international Dial a Poem project. The project’s telephone was exhibited at MAMbo in Bologna as part of a solo exhibition dedicated to John Giorno. In publishing, she edits Remedia, Pungitopo Editore’s poetry series, for which she has translated works by Yvonne Rainer and Allison Grimaldi Donahue. She is the founder of Murmur, a collective of poets, performers, and artists working with writing, readings, and workshops.

Ilaria Vinci (1991, Brindisi) lives and works in Zurich. Vinci’s practice spans sculpture, installation, drawing, and collaborative performance, exploring how fantasy shapes, reveals, and distorts reality through the languages of visual entertainment. Drawing on recurring cultural motifs such as Sci-fi tropes and fairytales, she investigates how narratives evolve across time while preserving their core metaphorical functions. By distilling visual themes into essential components of storytelling, Vinci positions viewers as co-authors in the process of meaning-making, framing fiction as a critical tool for interpreting and transforming contemporary realities. Her work has been included in solo and group exhibitions at Kunsthaus Zurich (2024), Kunsthalle Zurich, (2023), Museion, Bolzano (2023), Cabaret Voltaire, Zurich (2023); MACRO Museum, Rome (2022); Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Turin (2021); Kunsthalle Sankt Gallen (2021), among others.
