Climate Change Theatre Action 2021: Envisioning a Global Green New Deal.
In FVG Giovanni Morassutti proposes a local initiative on the Tagliamento River. Giovanni Morassutti, actor, director, and cultural entrepreneur presents with his art residency in Northern Italy new artistic proposals supporting the environment. Morassutti proposes with Art Aia - Creatives / In / Residence, in collaboration with the Arctic Cycle, the project Climate Change Theatre Action, a series of readings and performances of short plays written by playwrights from around the world on the theme of climate change and the Green New Deal. A project that invites local communities to take action and to raise awareness of the climate emergency. The project, organized by the Center for Sustainable Practices in the Arts with whom Morassutti had already collaborated in 2018 in the Ate residency in sustainable artistic practices. As been said by Morassutti : "At the moment, I am working on an international theater initiative that reflects my commitment to the environment. I intend to raise awareness about climate change and the Green New Deal by organizing an event on the banks of the Tagliamento River, symbolizing its authenticity as a morphologically intact river. I had already collaborated with the Centre for Sustainable Practice in the Arts on the Ate - Residency in Sustainable practices that, thanks to Google Arts & Culture, we have presented to an international audience. I hope that these initiatives will raise awareness of global warming and climate change. I believe that theater, like all the arts, has the task of raising public awareness of such urgent issues." About the project Art Aia - Creatives / In / Residence is an international art residency immersed in the Friulian countryside that combines art, environmental sustainability, and eco-therapy practices and proposes, with the Art Aia - Studios, new possibilities for collaboration in different fields. The cultural center is located in an ancient agricultural center, near the Comune of Sesto al Reghena, and offers higher education courses in some disciplines among the liberal arts such as performing arts, visual arts, and ecology.Art Aia- Creatives / in / Residence also has a subsidiary space in Berlin, Art Aia - La Dolce Berlin, a project space in the Turkish area of Wedding, committed to improving the cultural offer of the neighborhood. As a replica of the Friulian headquarter, the subsidiary space hosts artists in residence who can show their works to a Berlin audience in an intimate and familiar atmosphere establishing a dialogue with the local community. Art Aia is also a film production company that produces documentaries and narratives dealing with topics, including nature, creativity, art, and gender equality. Actor Giovanni Morassutti, as the founder of the project, has been working for a few years now to create a kind of connections between people that lead to collective civic action, political expression, community dialogue, and shared cultural experiences. At the moment, he is consolidating his collaborations with several international partners, the Friuli-Venezia Giulia Region, and other local entities rooted in the local community. Morassutti’s goal is also to enhance cultural tourism in the region through artistic proposals, such as artist in residence programs and training activities addressed to an international Audience.
