MATTIA CAPELLETTI FELLOW OF CRIPTA747 RESIDENCY PROGRAMME 2021
We welcome the curator Mattia Capelletti, winner of Cripta747 Residency Programme 2021, who in the coming residency months will bring his research into our new art space in Via Catania 15/F in Turin.
The voice is at the heart of the research that Mattia has been carrying out since 2016, together with the artist Costanza Candeloro through the Idioletta platform, and that he has subsequently developed in the context of his studies in Cultural Analysis at the University of Amsterdam. Specifically, the gravitational centre of Mattia’s attention is the vocal timbre. As a sound quality that allows for the identification of the speaker, timbre draws a politics of listening based on recognition and conditioned by specific cultural norms. The significance of the vocal timbre in the process of identity construction shows it as a self-determination device, both from a personal and a social point of view. Timbre defines the voice in its singularity, but at the same time it is able to welcome the Other through its infinite possibilities, disregarding the expectations and specificities of the body that conveys it, thus disrupting normative binarisms. An elusive element – timbre resists a purely analytical approach, but invites interdisciplinary methods, activates political experiments and performative practices.
The project will take shape through the contributions of artists, performers, scholars and friends who will accompany Mattia and delivera choral research able to decentralize the narrator’s voice.
Mattia’s residency will last until December. A calendar of appointments and public events, through which you can broaden your research, will soon be published. If you wish to meet the curator or learn more about the project, you can send an email to info@cripta747.it or book a visit through this link.

WORKSHOP
AUDIO-LOG
Due giornate di workshop per esplorare le possibilità del suono inteso come mezzo espressivo e vettore di narrazioni.
Guidati dal collettivo ALMARE insieme al team curatoriale di Cripta747, i partecipanti si confronteranno con la realizzazione di un audio-log utilizzando diversi mezzi di registrazione a loro disposizione come smartphone, registratori stereofonici e microfoni a contatto.
Nel mondo dei videogames gli audio-log sono espedienti narrativi, frammenti sonori che hanno lo scopo di fornire indizi e aiutare il giocatore nel suo percorso. Come in un laboratorio di scrittura creativa, a partire da uno spunto immaginifico nel quale saranno evocati il contesto e i personaggi, i ragazzi produrranno brevi tracce sonore per raccontare micro-frammenti di storie. Per la durata del workshop Villa Torre Acceglio e il suo parco si trasformeranno nell’ambientazione di un mondo fantastico e soprannaturale di cui i ragazzi e il pubblico saranno i role players.
AUDIO-LOG. Scrittura creativa tramite il suono.
a cura di ALMARE e Cripta747

CRIPTA747 RESIDENCY PROGRAMME
FELLOWSHIP 2021
OPEN CALL
Siamo felici di annunciare ufficialmente la ripresa delle attività con il lancio dell’open call for proposal per la quinta edizione di Cripta747 Residency Programme.
Quello appena trascorso è stato un anno difficile per tutti coloro che lavorano nei settori dell’arte e della cultura in Italia, per questo motivo abbiamo voluto dedicare l’edizione 2021 ad artisti, curatori e ricercatori italiani o residenti sul territorio nazionale, per garantire attraverso una borsa di studio il nostro supporto alla ricerca e alle nuove produzioni.
Questa ripartenza coincide con importanti novità che riguardano anche il nostro spazio: Cripta747 infatti, dopo cinque anni, cambia sede! Una nuova architettura, un nuovo quartiere e nuove energie per confrontarsi con le sfide e le collaborazioni che verranno, mantenendo sempre quello spirito di apertura che contraddistingue il nostro lavoro.
A breve nuovi aggiornamenti e di seguito il link per partecipare all'edizione 2021 di Cripta747 Residency Programme: a presto!
We are happy to officially open a new season by launching the open call for proposals for the fifth edition of the Cripta747 Residency Programme.
The past year has been hard for all those who work in Italy's fields of art and culture. For this reason, we have decided to address the 2021 edition to Italian artists, curators and researchers or foreign citizens currently living in Italy to ensure our support to the artistic research and the new productions through a fellowship.
This new beginning coincides with exciting news about Cripta747's headquarters. In fact, after nearly 5 years, we are moving into a new venue! That means new architecture, new neighbourhood and new energies to face upcoming challenges and collaborations while keeping the spirit of openness that has always distinguished our work.
Soon more info about the Residency!

Cripta747 Residency Programme
FELLOWSHIP 2020
We are happy to present the fourth edition of Cripta747 Residency Programme, a process-based residency open to international artists, curators and researchers that provides two fellowships and the opportunity to live and work in Turin for two months from September to November.
The winners of the 2020 edition, appointed among a shortlist of amazing candidates from all over the world, are the Italian artist Caterina De Nicola (1991) and the Dominican musician and filmmaker Kelman Duran (1984).
The selection jury, composed by Caterina Avataneo and Anne Langlois, appreciated the political engagement and the critical approach through which both the artists deal with burning issues of our times without any speculative intention, by means of different practices, expressive languages and intriguing aesthetics. Their projects have the potential to expand beyond the residency period, opening up an interesting series of discussions around timely topics in the current debate.
We can't wait to welcome Caterina and Kelman and start working together and we would like to thanks the artists that applied in the Residency and everyone who made this project possible.

ANNOUNCEMENT
STUDIO PROGRAMME 2020
Dear Friends,
we want to update you on our activities and give you official communication of the temporary interruption of the Studio Programme that, every year at this time, has been taking place in CRIPTA747's spaces in Turin.
At the core of our work and of the support we want to give to artist's research are openness, close relationships with artists and an intense contact with our territory and its people, through the cultural and productive realities that have always represented it.
As we currently lack these conditions we will not be able to offer artists the necessary support to best develop their projects and, following in-depth evaluations, we have decided to postpone the Studio Programme to a date that is yet to be decided.
We want to thank all who have participated to the open call and, in particular, those who were selected for this edition: Pietro Bonfanti (IT), Hugo de Almeida Pinho& Sara Castelo Branco (PT), Will Handley (NZ), Kornel Janczy (PL), Donglai Meng (CN), MRZB (IT), Federico Pozuelo (ES), Ian Skirvin (NL) and Alan Stefanato (IT).
With them, we will be using these days of protracted waiting to start working together and build the foundations of our collaboration.
We hope everything will soon go back to normal and we cannot wait to see you again.
All our very best,
Alexandro Tripodi, Elisa Troiano, Marianna Orlotti, Renato Leotta
Cari Amici,
vi scriviamo per aggiornarvi rispetto alle nostre attività e per comunicare la sospensione temporanea del programma di studi, previsto come ogni anno in questo periodo negli spazi di CRIPTA747 a Torino.
Lo spirito di apertura, il rapporto di vicinanza con gli artisti, lo stretto contatto con il territorio, le persone e le realtà culturali e produttive che lo rappresentano sono alla base del nostro lavoro e del sostegno che dedichiamo alla ricerca artistica. Venendo meno questi presupposti non possiamo offrire agli artisti il supporto necessario per poter sviluppare al meglio i loro progetti e, sulla base di queste valutazioni, abbiamo deciso di posticipare lo Studio Programme a data ancora da definire.
Vogliamo ringraziare tutti coloro che hanno partecipato all'open call e in particolare quelli che sono stati selezionati per questa edizione: Pietro Bonfanti (IT), Hugo de Almeida Pinho & Sara Castelo Branco (PT), Will Handley (NZ), Kornel Janczy (PL), Donglai Meng (CN), MRZB (IT), Federico Pozuelo (ES), Ian Skirvin (NL) e Alan Stefanato (IT).
Con loro stiamo approfittando di questi giorni di attesa per iniziare a lavorare insieme e porre le basi della nostra collaborazione.
Ci auguriamo che la situazione torni presto alla normalità e non vediamo l'ora di incontrarvi di nuovo.
Un caro saluto,
Alexandro Tripodi, Elisa Troiano, Marianna Orlotti, Renato Leotta
30 JAN - h. 6PM
GROUP SHOW
In the spirit of being with
Cripta747 is delighted to host In the spirit of being with, a group show curated by Lisa Andreani and Sonia D'Alto.
In the spirit of being with is a soft deviation from the present time, a decoy where the future acts backwards and the past can’t keep still in its grave. Linear narration melts into the material production process, something weird, almost carnival-like confirms the idea of progress as a mirage.
23 JAN - h. 9PM
Cripta747 Live

The event will host a conversation between Ferruccio Belmonte and Roberto Spallacci, moderated by Riccardo Ramello - Club Futuro; together with an exhibition of the original flyers from Ferruccio Belmonte archive.
"Di notte la musica e le stelle sono l'energia vitale di una civiltà che venera un prezioso diamante, di una città costruita sotto una piramide di cristallo, luogo di meraviglia e di paradisiache sensazioni. Fuori dal tempo come in un sogno.”

CRIPTA747 residency Programme: Open Studio
Lee Fraser
Hilary Galbreaith
Meet us over for the Open Studio of the third edition of Cripta747 Residency Programme with the works by Lee Fraser and Hilary Galbreaith.
Wednesday 30th of October from 5pm CRIPTA747, Via Quittengo 41/B, Torino.
7pm ---> Performance. Hilary Galbreaith with Pietra Tonale.
Trained as a composer at Dartington College of Arts in UK with Frank Denyer, Lee Fraser went on to study electroacoustic music at MA level with Denis Smalley, at City University London and then at the University of Manchester where he got a Phd in electroacoustic composition. His recent work is characterised by its concern with synthesised sound objects and complex auditory experiences, drawing from his interest in digital synthesis, psychoacoustics and acousmatic theory. In his pieces Fraser explores the idea of liminality, working with physical models of recognisable sounds and stretching characteristic features of those sounds to the limit of recognisability.
Having grown up between Southern California and Virginia, Hilary Galbreaith's childhood and adolescence was marked by the DIY and “health” culture of California, the San Diego punk scene, traditional crafts from the American South, and the trompe-l'œil worlds of Disneyland and Hollywood. She draws inspiration from a wide variety of sources: Youtube tutorials and DIY sites, the “hobby” section of arts and crafts stores, post-punk music, bizarre store window displays, comics, medieval frescos, traditional crafts and costumes, B-movies and horror films, and satirical science fiction. Galbreaith creates playfully dark, comedic fictions that address the 21st century body, the way it lives with the ambivalences and contradictions of everyday technologies such as screens, social networks, and digitalized bureaucracy.

CALL FOR IDEAS
AURIDAS GAJAUSKAS
INVITATION
to make a sculpture
A community of calendars of buds and sparrows needs a post-box. The box or equivalent object will be installed in the smallest possible to buy piece of land in Europe and will function as an official address and home of the community. As a call to relate practical and possible meanings, the call to make a post-box is an invitation to create a sculpture.
I invite you--to make a sculpture
Which will be a measure of a language
Before it is used as an organic and medical
Equivalence of truth
I invite you--to build a house
In the smallest piece of land,
Impossible to buy in Europe
No bigger than a post box would need,
Perhaps up to 0,2 - 0,5 m²?
From the perspective of status quo
And critical legal theory
The sculpture in the smallest piece of land
Will be a home and address
Of a community of calendars of buds
And sparrows
P.S.
You are now invited to make a sculpture.
Take a note as a line,
The one which would vertically support
Climbing of the weak-stemmed poem
In the making of a legal
Sculpture
Send your sketch of the post-box to studio@cripta747.it
A community of calendars of buds and sparrows is a working project, presented by Auridas Gajauskas during his participation at Cripta747 studio program. The project is devoted to transformations of the ethical lows and legal systems from the inside of the language, which produces the planetary (one we live in) vision. Life of the community, also simply called as “A community of calendars”, will be concentrated solely on reflections of changes, consequences and impacts of the non-human nature and its activities.

MATTIA CAPELLETTI FELLOW OF CRIPTA747 RESIDENCY PROGRAMME 2021
We welcome the curator Mattia Capelletti, winner of Cripta747 Residency Programme 2021, who in the coming residency months will bring his research into our new art space in Via Catania 15/F in Turin.
The voice is at the heart of the research that Mattia has been carrying out since 2016, together with the artist Costanza Candeloro through the Idioletta platform, and that he has subsequently developed in the context of his studies in Cultural Analysis at the University of Amsterdam. Specifically, the gravitational centre of Mattia’s attention is the vocal timbre. As a sound quality that allows for the identification of the speaker, timbre draws a politics of listening based on recognition and conditioned by specific cultural norms. The significance of the vocal timbre in the process of identity construction shows it as a self-determination device, both from a personal and a social point of view. Timbre defines the voice in its singularity, but at the same time it is able to welcome the Other through its infinite possibilities, disregarding the expectations and specificities of the body that conveys it, thus disrupting normative binarisms. An elusive element – timbre resists a purely analytical approach, but invites interdisciplinary methods, activates political experiments and performative practices.
The project will take shape through the contributions of artists, performers, scholars and friends who will accompany Mattia and delivera choral research able to decentralize the narrator’s voice.
Mattia’s residency will last until December. A calendar of appointments and public events, through which you can broaden your research, will soon be published.

We are happy to officially open a new season by launching the open call for proposals for the fifth edition of the Cripta747 Residency Programme.
The past year has been hard for all those who work in Italy's fields of art and culture. For this reason, we have decided to address the 2021 edition to Italian artists, curators and researchers or foreign citizens currently living in Italy to ensure our support to the artistic research and the new productions through a fellowship.
This new beginning coincides with exciting news about Cripta747's headquarters. In fact, after nearly 5 years, we are moving into a new venue! That means new architecture, new neighbourhood and new energies to face upcoming challenges and collaborations while keeping the spirit of openness that has always distinguished our work.
Soon more info about the Residency!

Following the new government guidelines for the containment of Covid-19 the studios are open to the public only on November 5th, from 3 pm to 9 pm.

Cripta747 Residency Programme
FELLOWSHIP 2020
We are happy to present the fourth edition of Cripta747 Residency Programme, a process-based residency open to international artists, curators and researchers that provides two fellowships and the opportunity to live and work in Turin for two months from September to November.
The winners of the 2020 edition, appointed among a shortlist of amazing candidates from all over the world, are the Italian artist Caterina De Nicola (1991) and the Dominican musician and filmmaker Kelman Duran (1984).
The selection jury, composed by Caterina Avataneo and Anne Langlois, appreciated the political engagement and the critical approach through which both the artists deal with burning issues of our times without any speculative intention, by means of different practices, expressive languages and intriguing aesthetics. Their projects have the potential to expand beyond the residency period, opening up an interesting series of discussions around timely topics in the current debate.
We can't wait to welcome Caterina and Kelman and start working together and we would like to thanks the artists that applied in the Residency and everyone who made this project possible.

ANNOUNCEMENT
STUDIO PROGRAMME 2020
Dear Friends,
we want to update you on our activities and give you official communication of the temporary interruption of the Studio Programme that, every year at this time, has been taking place in CRIPTA747's spaces in Turin.
At the core of our work and of the support we want to give to artist's research are openness, close relationships with artists and an intense contact with our territory and its people, through the cultural and productive realities that have always represented it.
As we currently lack these conditions we will not be able to offer artists the necessary support to best develop their projects and, following in-depth evaluations, we have decided to postpone the Studio Programme to a date that is yet to be decided.
We want to thank all who have participated to the open call and, in particular, those who were selected for this edition: Pietro Bonfanti (IT), Hugo de Almeida Pinho& Sara Castelo Branco (PT), Will Handley (NZ), Kornel Janczy (PL), Donglai Meng (CN), MRZB (IT), Federico Pozuelo (ES), Ian Skirvin (NL) and Alan Stefanato (IT).
With them, we will be using these days of protracted waiting to start working together and build the foundations of our collaboration.
We hope everything will soon go back to normal and we cannot wait to see you again.
All our very best,
Alexandro Tripodi, Elisa Troiano, Marianna Orlotti, Renato Leotta
Cari Amici,
vi scriviamo per aggiornarvi rispetto alle nostre attività e per comunicare la sospensione temporanea del programma di studi, previsto come ogni anno in questo periodo negli spazi di CRIPTA747 a Torino.
Lo spirito di apertura, il rapporto di vicinanza con gli artisti, lo stretto contatto con il territorio, le persone e le realtà culturali e produttive che lo rappresentano sono alla base del nostro lavoro e del sostegno che dedichiamo alla ricerca artistica. Venendo meno questi presupposti non possiamo offrire agli artisti il supporto necessario per poter sviluppare al meglio i loro progetti e, sulla base di queste valutazioni, abbiamo deciso di posticipare lo Studio Programme a data ancora da definire.
Vogliamo ringraziare tutti coloro che hanno partecipato all'open call e in particolare quelli che sono stati selezionati per questa edizione: Pietro Bonfanti (IT), Hugo de Almeida Pinho & Sara Castelo Branco (PT), Will Handley (NZ), Kornel Janczy (PL), Donglai Meng (CN), MRZB (IT), Federico Pozuelo (ES), Ian Skirvin (NL) e Alan Stefanato (IT).
Con loro stiamo approfittando di questi giorni di attesa per iniziare a lavorare insieme e porre le basi della nostra collaborazione.
Ci auguriamo che la situazione torni presto alla normalità e non vediamo l'ora di incontrarvi di nuovo.
Un caro saluto,
Alexandro Tripodi, Elisa Troiano, Marianna Orlotti, Renato Leotta
30 JAN - h. 6PM
GROUP SHOW
In the spirit of being with
Cripta747 is delighted to host In the spirit of being with, a group show curated by Lisa Andreani and Sonia D'Alto.
In the spirit of being with is a soft deviation from the present time, a decoy where the future acts backwards and the past can’t keep still in its grave. Linear narration melts into the material production process, something weird, almost carnival-like confirms the idea of progress as a mirage.
23 JAN - h. 9PM
Cripta747 Live
Klammklang Exports
On the occasion of the first event of our 2020, we invite you to a listening session made of four performances.

The event will host a conversation between Ferruccio Belmonte and Roberto Spallacci, moderated by Riccardo Ramello - Club Futuro; together with an exhibition of the original flyers from Ferruccio Belmonte archive.
"Di notte la musica e le stelle sono l'energia vitale di una civiltà che venera un prezioso diamante, di una città costruita sotto una piramide di cristallo, luogo di meraviglia e di paradisiache sensazioni. Fuori dal tempo come in un sogno.”

CRIPTA747 residency Programme: Open Studio
Lee Fraser
Hilary Galbreaith
Meet us over for the Open Studio of the third edition of Cripta747 Residency Programme with the works by Lee Fraser and Hilary Galbreaith.
Wednesday 30th of October from 5pm CRIPTA747, Via Quittengo 41/B, Torino.
7pm ---> Performance. Hilary Galbreaith with Pietra Tonale.
Trained as a composer at Dartington College of Arts in UK with Frank Denyer, Lee Fraser went on to study electroacoustic music at MA level with Denis Smalley, at City University London and then at the University of Manchester where he got a Phd in electroacoustic composition. His recent work is characterised by its concern with synthesised sound objects and complex auditory experiences, drawing from his interest in digital synthesis, psychoacoustics and acousmatic theory. In his pieces Fraser explores the idea of liminality, working with physical models of recognisable sounds and stretching characteristic features of those sounds to the limit of recognisability.
Having grown up between Southern California and Virginia, Hilary Galbreaith's childhood and adolescence was marked by the DIY and “health” culture of California, the San Diego punk scene, traditional crafts from the American South, and the trompe-l'œil worlds of Disneyland and Hollywood. She draws inspiration from a wide variety of sources: Youtube tutorials and DIY sites, the “hobby” section of arts and crafts stores, post-punk music, bizarre store window displays, comics, medieval frescos, traditional crafts and costumes, B-movies and horror films, and satirical science fiction. Galbreaith creates playfully dark, comedic fictions that address the 21st century body, the way it lives with the ambivalences and contradictions of everyday technologies such as screens, social networks, and digitalized bureaucracy.

We are glad to announce the release of a new section of the Instudio archive: a series of video documents that follows the artists’ research hosted by CRIPTA747 through our Studio Programme.
Thanks to this project, Instudio had the chance to experiment out of its usual format, in order to investigate the relationship developed between the artists and the studio during a temporary residency.
The first three videos document the first edition of the CRIPTA747 Studio Programme in 2017, hoping to testify the exchanges, the creative instability and discoveries on the field that come out from the necessity of building a personal work space inside a shared studio plunged in a new city.

CALL FOR IDEAS
AURIDAS GAJAUSKAS
INVITATION
to make a sculpture
A community of calendars of buds and sparrows needs a post-box. The box or equivalent object will be installed in the smallest possible to buy piece of land in Europe and will function as an official address and home of the community. As a call to relate practical and possible meanings, the call to make a post-box is an invitation to create a sculpture.
I invite you--to make a sculpture
Which will be a measure of a language
Before it is used as an organic and medical
Equivalence of truth
I invite you--to build a house
In the smallest piece of land,
Impossible to buy in Europe
No bigger than a post box would need,
Perhaps up to 0,2 - 0,5 m²?
From the perspective of status quo
And critical legal theory
The sculpture in the smallest piece of land
Will be a home and address
Of a community of calendars of buds
And sparrows
P.S.
You are now invited to make a sculpture.
Take a note as a line,
The one which would vertically support
Climbing of the weak-stemmed poem
In the making of a legal
Sculpture
Send your sketch of the post-box to studio@cripta747.it
A community of calendars of buds and sparrows is a working project, presented by Auridas Gajauskas during his participation at Cripta747 studio program. The project is devoted to transformations of the ethical lows and legal systems from the inside of the language, which produces the planetary (one we live in) vision. Life of the community, also simply called as “A community of calendars”, will be concentrated solely on reflections of changes, consequences and impacts of the non-human nature and its activities.
