MOST 2026

MOST is a bridge between historic and new inhabitants, and between generations. It is a bridge between village life and the arts, between what is imaginable and real.

We have our doubts, but we’ve decided not to give up and to take care of something important for the village and for us: MOST has just been launched and is shaping new paths and relationships that we want to continue.

In the realm of the imaginable, we want it all; in the realm of the possible, we have to renounce to collaborations with international artists who were already involved, but we intensify our local networking, community-building, practices of listening, participation, movement, ecology, and magic.

A huge thank you, therefore, goes to all the professionals who will help ensure that these events can continue.

MOST events will still be free, but your support through voluntary donations will be essential.

Domenica / Nedelja / Sunday → 2 August

19h00 VESPRO (studio) restituzione della residenza artistica ← Camilla Isola

Vespro is an interdisciplinary research project by Camilla Isola, inspired by the figure of the genius loci, the spirit that inhabits a place. Through field recordings, vocal explorations, movement practices, and video, the project explores the relationship between presence and landscape during the vesper hours, a liminal time when light and darkness, the visible and the invisible coexist. The residency at MOST will host the project's second research phase, focusing on the development of its choreographic research in dialogue with selected sites in Topolò.

Developed in collaboration with Paolo Danelone (visuals), Giuditta Amendola (costume and set design), and Lucy Railton (sound mentor), with the support of the Centro di Residenza delle Arti Performative FVG.

The Pavel Petričič bilingual school in San Pietro al Natisone celebrates the rich cultural heritage of Benecia: among the various Benecian cultural associations collaborating with the school is the Živanit folk dance group , which offers a folk dance workshop. The children who participate have the opportunity to discover and learn the many traditional Benecian dances (valzer, početauka, potresauka, špicpolka, šklava, šetepaši, kolo), thereby embracing and passing on ancient traditions. At MOST, during the workshop, the children themselves will take center stage in this tradition.

18h30 SUBBURBEN concert ← Subburben: Gal Furlan (drums, percussion) and Andrej Kobal (live electronics, modular synthesizer, GranuRise)

Subburben is a Slovenian duo dedicated to sonic exploration and experimentation. Their music is a constantly evolving interplay of raw acoustic energy and electronic sound manipulation, creating immersive and unpredictable soundscapes.

INSTALLATIONS

QUARTET intermedia sound installation ← cantierezero collective (Stefania Amisano, Tiziana Bertoncini, sound + concept; Giovanni Asquini, sound; Clémence Martel, sound; Riccardo Sellan, devices)

A collaborative work inspired by the symbolism of the number four, QUARTET offers a profound listening experience in which the listener, moving between the four sound stations, perceives each individual voice and, at the same time, the interconnection that links them to the often unnoticed and unheard soundscape of our surroundings. Four chimerical sound elements surround a fifth element – present yet invisible – marking a transition to a different way of being in space, through listening.

In collaboration with Teatri del suono festival and collettivo cantierezero / music. art. knowledge.
