From 26 April to 29 June 2025
The exhibition "Kabuki, but also Noh" in its traveling path, after the great success achieved at the Antitesi Art Gallery in Turin and at the Ugo Guidi 2 Museum (MUG 2) in the sixteenth-century Episcopal Palace in the historic center of Massa, in Tuscany, lands at the Museum of the House in Mondovì. The important event was born thanks to the collaboration between the Cultural Association Fly Art, the Ai Tre Torchi Gallery in Turin (from which the works come) and the Association "Mondovì Culturale" chaired by Enrico Chebello.
The exhibition, which consists of a collection of over fifty original woodcuts ranging from the second half of the nineteenth century to the early twentieth century, is enriched with thematic books, masks from the ancient Japanese theater, and some videos that tangibly exemplify the differences between the Noh theatrical tradition, characterized by minimalist scenography and essential and evocative acting, and Kabuki, a more modern theater, characterized by greater dynamism and expressive freedom.
It should be emphasized how even today these two theatrical forms represent for Japan and beyond, a historical treasure of great value to the point of having rightfully entered in 2008 into the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.
The event was sponsored by the Consulate General of Japan in Milan
