Conceived as a diary, this book recounts a period of waiting for an appointment that never took place. The story takes place during the three months Luca Vitone spent at the American Academy in Rome during the autumn of 2008 as an Italian visual arts Fellow. Page after page record Vitone's vain attempts to reach the object of desire on the phone, the person with whom Vitone had planned to collaborate on a publication. The invisible and unreachable character is Emilio Prini.

The book will be presented by Luca Vitone, Giuseppe Garrera (art historian and collaborator with Quodlibet), Andrea Cortellessa (writer), and Stefano Chiodi (curator).

The presentation will be held in Italian. You can watch this event live at https://livestream.com/aarome

On this occasion, the exhibition A View of One's Own in the AAR Gallery will be open from 5pm to 8pm.

This event is part of La Quadriennale in città (16° Quadriennale d’Arte).
