Lazy patriots is a lecture performance that engages with the works presented in the exhibition of the same name, held in 2023 at the SUPPAMoC’ Foundation in Terni. In the introductory text curated by the founders, Chiara Moccetti and Edoardo Suppa, we read: “Here there is no guide other than experience; yet, since no experience can fully encompass reality, it is unwise to rely on it entirely.” Taking up the Foundation’s invitation, since 2025 committed to a traveling conference program aimed at disseminating the exhibition across the country, the performance offers an expanded exploration of the works. During the event, screenings, commentaries, and archival materials alternate, integrating the presentation with previously unpublished contributions. The format, conceived in collaboration with the participating artists, allows each speaker to reinterpret Lazy patriots from an autonomous perspective, giving rise to an ever-evolving cycle of lectures.
