Pisa Book Festival programming and Ukrainian exhibition

Overview

The 24th edition of the Pisa Book Festival, held at the Arsenali Repubblicani and various historic sites, continues its focus on independent publishing and its role as the guest country for Ukraine.

Program highlights include writer Luca Paoli, who is transitioning from poetry to noir fiction, and sessions by Paesi Edizioni on history and geopolitics. Ukrainian representation remains a central theme through presentations by Elena Kostioukovitch and Yaryna Grusha, alongside historical explorations of Ukrainian civilization. Other scheduled topics include the impact of artificial intelligence, US-EU trade tensions, and tributes to Nobel laureate Grazia Deledda.

Expanding the festival’s cultural reach, the ‘Yellow&Blue’ exhibition has opened at Palazzo Blu in collaboration with Fondazione Pisa. Dedicated to Ukrainian illustrators, the exhibition features sixteen works by members of the Pictoric artistic group. The collection utilizes contemporary visual arts to present a mosaic of Ukraine, contrasting its traditional anthropological beauty and landscapes with the current realities of war and destruction. This exhibition is scheduled to remain open to the public until November 1.
