"Conversations on Love’ is the topic of the multidisciplinary teaching week at IED. Students and guests question themselves on sex, relationships, love and contemporaneity. On site at the theatre in Via Pompeo Leoni and online.

A generational snapshot of today on delicate and never taken for granted topics - love, relationships, sex - analyzed through the lens of contemporary culture.

IED Square Fest returns on the 26th and 27th September: two days of non-stop multidisciplinary teaching aimed primarily at the third-year students as an inspirational moment to accompany them towards their thesis, the final project that brings them closer to the world of work - but also open to young people from other universities and the general public.

IED Square, the physical and virtual piazza in which meetings become the sharing of knowledge and perceptions beyond the usual boundaries between disciplines, this year investigates the world of relationships in a broad sense, with 10 talks over two days at the Spazio Teatro (IED headquarters in via Pompeo Leoni), as well as online, with access subject to registration. Among the guests  writers, journalists, film and TV authors and critics, as well as designers and visual artists, radio producers and presenters, and the contribution of an urologist doctor: all people who have much to say about contemporary changes in the field of love, in terms of languages and perceptions. At the end of the two days there will also be a musical moment, with the Khora String Quartet and guitarist Roberto Fabbri.
