ONLINE SEMINAR 20 September 2025: THE DANCE OF THE ORIGINS
Our first online seminar of the 2025-2026 season tries to answer fundamental questions: What do we know about prehistoric dances? How do we know this? Is the sacred dimension of these dances really predominant?
Gaudenzio Ragazzi, CID member, is an expert in prehistoric art, specializing in dance and gesture scenes from the iconographic repertoire of European and world prehistory. This is a topic on which he defended his philosophy thesis many years ago at the Catholic University of Milan. He is the author of several publications, including the book that bears the same title as the seminar.
Come along to learn and ask questions.
