The Importance of Art and Media for Civil Society: the experience of Love Difference to be presented at Berlin conference, 15-16 August
Interfaces between art/media and civil society under the conditions of a globalized world: this is the core of the discussions programmed at the Heinrich Böll Stiftung, Berlin, on the 15-16 August, for the conference The Importance of Art and Media for Civil Society:a dialogue about experiences from Germany and the Arab world. The conference is part of the project “Living-Globality” of the Heinrich Boell Foundation, aiming at creating a network of journalists, scientists and artists from Europe and Arab countries around the Mediterranean. As a result, new forms of exchanging ideas and cooperation – adjusted to the conditions of a globalized world – will be explored at the interfaces of art, media and civil society.
The conference has been divided into four panel discussions: The Power of Images – the Sociopolitical Potential of Art and Media; Culture and Media in the Arab World; New Formats of Cultural Journalism in Germany. Filippo Fabbrica, Love Difference project manager, will introduce the Artistic Movement for an InterMediterranean politic in the fourth panel: Art focussing on changes in civil society - about the situation in Germany and the Arab Mediterranean.
