Our history is marked by walls, some of them have fallen down, some others are still standing, even in Europe. Are new walls under construction? The question is strong, but not unfounded. Walls may take different shapes connected to nationalisms, xenophobia, racism. New frontiers can be built despite the big efforts made to the advancement of reconciliation and inclusiveness. Culture, indeed, plays a pivotal role in the comprehension and recognition of the other,as an indispensable factor of dialogue, integration,social cohesion in diversity.The project is related to the necessity of facilitating the encounter of artists and people from different countries, backgrounds, cultures in order to promote reflections, debate, common artistic work about diversity and mutual knowledge. The work focuses on a reflection about old and new walls in the European area, that may endanger mutual recognition and trigger separations and exclusion.The activities aim at the encounter and common work between artists, cultural operators,social scientists, young people, local population with different cultures and languages, coming from involved countries. A combined path of social research, theatre workshops, artistic residencies in mobility is realized in the 6 involved countries, respectively in Şirince (Turkey), Zakynthos (Greece), Berlin (Germany), Paris (France), Lecce (Italy), Nicosia (Cyprus).The artistic residencies foresee: intensive theatre workshops finalised at the creation of joint multilingual performances with the international groups of artists participating to activities, sessions called “International encounters between audience and artists-performativity and dialogues” with performing events and round-tables.
