It is a multidisciplinary space, dedicated to contemporary productions and shows: prose, but also dance performances, multimedia shows and concerts. The exhibition offers various artistic genres of a contemporary nature from jazz to avant-garde rock, from electronic to musical theater, from performance to dance, from video to theatrical experimentation, often investigating the relationships with other disciplines and multimedia.
