LiBri is a young, up-to-date, daring, elegant, multidisciplinary Fair that has chosen BRINDISI as an attractive pole for Book Culture. Among the great authors at the Fair, Juan Colòn (Dominican Republic), Ambassador of Peace in the world, Guest of Honor of the Event, presented during the II Press Conference on 24 April. A rich program of events, scientific conventions, conferences, national and international critics prizes will enliven the three days of the exhibition in the prestigious halls of the Bastione San Giacomo, where around 60 authors with over 1000 titles will be exhibiting, including Books nominated for the Strega Prize and Nobel prizes.
LiBri is art and culture: a winning combination that accompanies this extraordinary edition in Brindisi. Curated by Dores Sacquegna, the conference room will host for three consecutive days the works of Angioletta De Nitto, with FEMINAE VIRTUS and the live performance of Massimiliano Manieri and Madia Biondo with PERCEPTUAL BORDER (premiere on Saturday 29 April at 20:00). The two Apulian artists are different in artistic and executive modalities but united by the ability to narrate and experiment. The event is designed to establish a deep bond between Salento and the world.
The goal of the organizers is to create a cultural and attractive pole, which can be a source of pride for the city of Brindisi, offering a diversified, suggestive and international program, to recreate that bohemian atmosphere that involves a vast audience of insiders from the publishing world and beyond, students, teachers and visitors.
