Somnium - A Voyage to the Moon
A free book... that is what artist Bettina Forget is giving out to visitors as they come by to her exhibition. But what is she giving out are abridged copies of the first-ever science-fiction novel, by the astronomer Johannes Kepler. Her exhibition is of a series of incredible prints and collages based on the novel, and on the empty pages of the book you could illustrate drawings on your own or uses stamps made by the artists (the great part is that some stamps are in the presented gallery while the others are in different venues so that you can wander to them to receive more stamps.)

Si par une nuit d’hiver
Photographer Josée Pellerin captures beautiful images relating to the inspiration of author Italo Calvino (he was one of Enzo's reading inspirations when I heard of him.) Pellerin will also read to the audience excerpts from one of Calvino's novels while enjoying a cocktail or two.
