Within the public program of Making room for critical thinking, Workspace Ricerca X is presenting a work session open to the public: as an observation window, a space for proximity and sharing, inside the research processes of Aurelio Di Virgilio, Polina Fenko e Miranda Secondari, resident artists for the edition 2023.

With this landscape of practices and materials, more bodies and gazes are welcomed in the work space, with an invitation to explore the research trajectories articulated by the artists during the two residency sessions.
The encounter between artists and visitors, practices and practitioners, discourses, universes and obsessions, generates a space where it is possible to think in conversation with the materials, embodied in a variety of media, activating a collective exercising of critical thinking.

Which kind of space does opening a research process activate?
How much responsibility, sensitivity and fantasy are at stake while we generate critical thinking?
In how many ways can critical thinking circulate?
