Full article press conference - Palazzo di Cultura Catania:

 

The Biotopi Urbani congress is the confluence point of a path that originated about thirty years ago and has its foundation in the Animal Signage project in which for the first time, in art, we wanted to study and produce new design, study and development paradigms. research on the relationship between human beings and animals in shared contexts. Theorized more widely as Ecolutive Systems, this was the origin of the Biotopi Urbani congress. In it today, we intend to study in a specific and interdisciplinary way the phenomena involved in the communication process between humans and animals from the point of view of languages in a field that refers to art, urbanism, philosophy, animal biology, technologies, design and various other disciplines that can contribute to the progress and understanding of the topics dealt with.
