Pietro Gaglianò Reads from 'La sintassi della libertà' on Artribune Podcast

publication · 2026-04-27

Pietro Gaglianò presents a reading from his book 'La sintassi della libertà' (Gli Ori, 2020) in the podcast series 'Rubriche d’aria' curated by Juan Pablo Macías and Alessandra Poggianti. The excerpt reinterprets two centuries of history to reconnect art and libertarian pedagogy, using anarchist thought as a dialectical device. Gaglianò compares John Cage's educational activities with 19th-century experiments, referencing Joseph Jacotot (as analyzed by Jacques Rancière in 'The Ignorant Schoolmaster') and Peter Kropotkin's ideas on art's emancipatory function. The podcast is available on Spreaker via Carico Massimo.
