- 15:57Una riflessione fra informazione e cultura | Roberta Scorranese | TEDxToranoNuovoChe cosa resta della bellezza nell’incessante rumore delle nostre giornate? Chiacchiericcio, narcisismo, marketing, burocrazia digitale: come fare cultura nel mondo dell’informazione cercando di distinguere quello che è importante da quello che è interessante?

Ma (come ripeteva Thomas Mann) «la bellezza trafigge».Giornalista, lavora da vent’anni al Corriere della Sera, dove è caposervizio della redazione Eventi culturali.È direttrice scientifica del Master Arte presso Rcs Academy Business School.Per Bompiani ha scritto il memoir «Portami dove sei nata» (2019) e il saggio «A questo serve il corpo. Viaggio nell’arte attraverso i corpi delle donne» (2023).Sul Corriere cura la rubrica fissa d’arte Capolavoro!, ogni venerdì, e la videorubrica Capolavoro! Video, ogni mese.
