Triennale Milano has announced a new autumn 2026 collaboration with UBI Unione Buddhista Italiana, including a performance titled ‘Dieci icone del bue’ at FE Fabbrica dell'Esperienza Teatro in Milan on 1 December 2026 at 7.30pm. The event is described by the institution as a multimedia work drawn from one of the classics of Buddhism, and as a sensory journey through the ten stages of the Zen path.
The announcement appears within a wider Triennale Milano Teatro and UBI programme that will continue through autumn 2026 with three new appointments. Triennale describes the series as moving across theatre, sound, music, dance and the visual arts, indicating a cross-disciplinary framework rather than a single-format staging. For ‘Dieci icone del bue’, the focus is explicitly spiritual and performative, with the work framed as an exploration of self-knowledge.
According to the event text, the performance uses multimedia elements to bring Buddhist teaching into contact with everyday life. The source material does not provide artist names, production credits or a fuller synopsis, so the work should be understood only through the details Triennale has released: a zen spectacle on the search for self, adapted from a Buddhist classic and structured around the ten stages of the Zen path.
The venue listed in the event data is FE Fabbrica dell'Esperienza Teatro in Milan, and the published start time is 19:30 on 1 December 2026. The notice also states that tickets cost €18 and that admission is included with membership, matching the broader ticketing language used across the collaboration announcements.
The same Triennale mailing also points to two other UBI-linked events in the season: ‘What we do when in silence’, scheduled for 25 September 2026, and a book presentation, ‘Lì dove batte il cuore’, on 16 December 2026. Those entries are presented in the newsletter as related items, but the main announcement for ‘Dieci icone del bue’ remains separate and specifically identifies the Milan date, venue and format.
Triennale’s wording suggests that the autumn programme is intended as an interdisciplinary exchange between performance and Buddhist thought, with ‘Dieci icone del bue’ positioned as one part of that sequence. The event is currently listed for FE Fabbrica dell'Esperienza Teatro, Milan, on 1 December 2026 at 7.30pm.
