Exhibition - "Pasolini in Chiaroscuro"
From Friday 29 March to Sunday 29 September 2024, Nouveau Musée National de Monaco - Villa Sauber
The new exhibition at the Villa Sauber honours Pier Paolo Pasolini, perhaps the last European intellectual to have gained worldwide renown. A half-century on from his death, his influence can still be felt across the different fields in which he worked: he is read, commented on, adapted, and inspires contemporary creative artists. While he preferred to describe himself as a writer, it was his films that brought him to the public’s attention. The exhibition looks at his inspirations and his legacy.

DREAM OF A NEW WORLD AND LEAVE A MESSAGE OF HOPE. Imagine a new world and a whole new way of living. A reverie. A revolution.

Family, sexuality, new technologies… In his new show, Pablo Mira muses on how our society has changed over the last thirty years. And while he has abandoned his cartoonish reactionary editorialist persona, he retains all his spirit and biting satire. This is the comedian's second stand-up show, following the hilarious 2017 tour “Pablo Mira says stuff for money” which played to sell-out audiences.
