Quando la ragione va in pensione lo spirito ne muore. Non più freni né riflessioni, non esiste ahimè, ahinoi un vaccino contro la stolida stupidità.

Over the years, the Pieve International School has deeply cherished the relationships with our students. To reinforce that relationship we are offering one-to-one online coaching with Rossella Vasta. It would be a pleasure to meet you online!

Dear students and collaborators,

Despite the pandemic making it difficult for our visitors to benefit from the experience of being at Pieve, we aim to provide continuity to the important relationships we have built over the years.

Therefore, we have created the Pieve online website to offer online pre-recorded programs that are available until the current situation will allow our foreign guests to safely travel again.

The Pieve International School Director, Rossella Vasta, is enthusiastic to offer the school's first online program, virtually taking participants to visit the many Franciscan shrines in central Italy to recreate a similar experience one has coming to Pieve.

Here below is the link for the Pieve e-Classes:

We miss our students! ❤️🏠
Pieve invites our alumni to participate in a collaborative project that would allow for us to reconnect with those who we may perhaps not be able to reach for reasons of the quarantine and travel ban.

The project is titled, "Pieve International School's Cyber Cadavre Exquis"

The cadavre exquis was a collective surrealist game, made for the first time in 1925, in Paris.

It consisted in having a sentence composed by several people (without anyone knowing the other's intervention). The name of the game derives from the first compiled sentence that was obtained: "le cadavre exquis boira le vin nouveau" ("the exquisite co**se will drink the new wine").
The same system was adopted to the drawing initiative, which boasted important collaborations between famous artists of the twentieth century, including Breton, Tanguy, Picasso, and others.

In this quarantine period, the educational privileges granted from study abroad programs have been put on hold. Nonetheless, the Pieve International School, who’s hosted international programs for over twenty years, aims to maintain an open all of those who have shared an experience with us.

My niece Ann Marie Vasta, who's collaborated with me for a couple of years, proposed the opportunity for American university students to participate to this game, through the school’s page.

Send in a 45-second recorded video of yourself, speaking about a thought, a reflection, a memory... anything! It could be a video of you engaging in an activity, like cooking or singing or even drawing. The video entries will then be selected to formulate a brief montage to publish on our page.

The cadavre exquis of the surrealists used words and drawings to communicate in total freedom, and for this project, and what better medium than the cellphone as a means to join together as a larger system and network.

I encourage you of you who came to Pieve to participate in this “game” intended to recreate the totality and universality that the word “University” expresses (deriving from the Latin word “universus”, from which takes origin as “universitas-atis”).

We would greatly appreciate any submissions! Please join us!
