L’avventura.

  • Patterns, styles, figures: the evolution of styles and patterns, themes and narratives; the rela­tionship between film and other art and communication practices; modes of production and industrial forms.
  • Archive: film and media archives, as much as oral sources.
  • Differences: local, national, gender and generational identities as shaped and moulded in cinema and media discourse.
  • Spectatorship: reception and audience studies within the Italian context, or related to the Ital­ian media products circulating abroad.
  • Camera:  the history and present of Italian photography, as related to visual and media culture.
  • Contemporary tale: a fresh look onto contemporary narrative patterns within Italian me­dia production.
