A screening of Bussotti’s film Rara (New York premiere), followed by a selection of the artist’s musical miniatures. After an introduction by Luciano Chessa, Bussotti’s silent film Rara (1967-69) will be screened in a restored version.

Experimental and without deliberate narrative, the work gathers ‘filmed portraits’ of the 1960s Italian avant-garde, including the circle around Pier Paolo Pasolini, famed comedian Franca Valeri, actress Daria Nicolodi (best known for her work in Dario Argento’s thrillers), writers Dario Bellezza and Dacia Maraini, singer Cathy Berberian, and actors from New York’s The Living Theater.
