Congresses and conferences

Festival del Pensare Contemporaneo (Festival of Contemporary Thought)

When: 24–27 September 2026
Where: various venues in the historic centre of Piacenza

The Piacenza event dedicated to art, culture and science returns for its fourth edition under the title “Attraversiamo – lasciare/approdare” (Crossing Over – Leaving/Landing), featuring a variety of formats spread across different locations in the city to explore the central theme of the 2026 edition: the crossings that the human condition faces in a multitude of contexts.

We traverse spaces, relationships, moments and sensations, and for this reason the festival’s events invite reflection on the human condition and on the consequences of an action which, even when carried out by a single individual, always results in an act of collective sharing.

Alessandro Fusacchia, Curator.

Andrea Colamedici and Maura Gancitano, Philosophical Direction.

A detailed programme will be available on the official website closer to the event: pensarecontemporaneo.it
