A kaleidoscope of reflections on the origin of the artwork, the result of the encounter between philosophy and the arts

Theater, painting, philosophy, music, poetry, dance, singing and drawing are called to the stage by the authors and analyzed in search of their source. The book is an original and out-of-orbit navigation that circumnavigates \’arts\’ and cognitive practices in search of a common root of human knowledge. A volume that is an initiatory journey, a pilgrimage, a real aesthetic \’factory of experience\’ conceived as a gesture that seeks to grasp and join the end and the origin in every instant.
