Il tarantismo degli anni Settanta nei reportage di Giovanni Valentini

On Friday, October 4th, at 7:00 p.m., the "Graziano Zizzi" Multipurpose Center will host the inauguration of the exhibition "The Tarantism of the Seventies in the reportage of Giovanni Valentini", curated by Salvatore Luperto and Anna Panareo. The event is part of the rich calendar of La Fera 2024 and will retrace, through the photographic shots of Giovanni Valentini and music, the two significant reportages that the scholar realized in the field, specifically in the places where the tarantula still had the strongest bite: Galatina and Nardò. The curators of the exhibition will illustrate the two photographic services and the figure of the author, Giovanni Valentini, who in addition to being the author of these precious shots was also an artist and researcher between art and science, a precursor of cyborg art. An unmissable event for lovers of Salento history and art. The special guest of the evening will be Sergio Blasi, former Mayor of Melpignano and creator of the Night of the Tarantula. Following the concert in Piazza Umberto I by CGS Canzoniere Grecanico Salentino, the first group of popular Salento music to be formed in Puglia.
