Club culture takes over the PAC with Le Cannibale and Ri-SCATTI

In Milan, the PAC – Padiglione d’Arte Contemporanea opens its doors to a collaboration with Le Cannibale, giving life to an evening that weaves music and photography into a dialogue between art, community, and inclusion. The occasion is the exhibition RI-SCATTI. Il cielo è sempre più blu (“The sky is ever bluer”), a project initiated by Ri-scatti ODV in collaboration with Dynamo Camp, which uses photography to give voice to those who experience vulnerability as a starting point rather than a limit.

The works on view portray the world through the eyes of nine teenagers living with chronic or serious illnesses, neurodevelopmental disorders, or disabilities. Young people who, behind the lens, have found a language capable of turning vulnerability into a creative act. Their images do not seek perfection, but truth: they speak of restlessness, joy, and the strength of those who reinvent themselves every day.

Building on this ground of freedom and experimentation, the collaboration with Le Cannibale brings to the PAC a format capable of dissolving the barriers between club culture and contemporary art. For one night, electronic music becomes the soundtrack of a museum that moves, breathes, and opens up to new possibilities for encounter.

The centerpiece of the live program is One Eat One, the world’s first electronic band made up of people with and without disabilities. Born as an inclusion workshop, the group has become a fully fledged artistic project—radical and necessary. Their performances are a manifesto for music that doesn’t separate but unites; that turns diversity into rhythm and the stage into a shared space.

Next up, the DJ set by Bunny Dakota, co-founder of the collective Industria Indipendente, brings to the stage her hybrid and political approach to music. With Merende, she has reinvented the dancefloor as a place of exchange and affirmation, where club culture intersects with queer research and performance art. Her collaborations with Silvia Calderoni have expanded this universe, exploring the body as language and identity as a field of possibilities.

What Le Cannibale and the PAC have built is an evening that goes beyond the idea of an event to become a collective experience: a reflection on how art, music, and cultural activism can coexist, contaminate one another, and generate new visions. Among images, sounds, and bodies in motion, the night at the PAC becomes an invitation to imagine a more open, accessible, and shared future.
