Marco Tagliafierro's 'Alchemy of the Everyday' in Le Dictateur Podcast

Critic and curator Marco Tagliafierro appears in the seventh episode of the video podcast 'Password' by Le Dictateur. His password for the future is 'Alchemy of the Everyday', voiced by Simone D'Andrea. In the interview, Tagliafierro reflects on lockdown as a meditative period that allowed him to explore alchemy across geographically distant cultures. He redefines fear not as suffering or death but as the anguish of being manipulated by external forces, even well-intentioned ones. Regarding the impact of the health emergency on publishing and curating, he cites notable initiatives: Federico Pepe's 'Password', Riccardo Previdi's 'Bubble Boy', Massimo De Carlo's 'VSpace', Flash Art's 'Ordet' column (especially 'Shorelines #7'), Davide Stucchi's 'Absent bodies', and Nicoletta Rusconi's 'ARTbite'. He envisions a balance between digital and analog in the near future. The interview was conducted by Marco Enrico Giacomelli.
