Symposiums

Did you know that the word «symposium» has come down to us from ancient Greek and literally means «joint libation» from «συμ» -meaning complicity and «πόσις» — to drink, a drink? The symposium was a feast dedicated to art and philosophical discussions between fellow guests.
Did you know that one of Plato’s most famous dialogues is called «The Feast»? The conversations of the great philosophers of antiquity were held in a friendly atmosphere over a glass of good wine.
So why not come up with something new this year and at the same time revive the well-forgotten old and arrange a real feast — of flesh and spirit, with your closest friends and colleagues? Why not recreate a genuine symposium, accompanied by a captivating discussion about philosophy, classical and contemporary art?
D.A. Project will be happy to organize an unforgettable and original event for you that will impress your guests. Themes and presentations were developed by the former Consul General of Italy in Moscow (2017-2021) Francesco Forte, author of the book «Dante’s Hidden Worlds» (Eksmo Publishing House, 2021), and are presented in Russian with simultaneous translation by professor Gennady Kiselev.
