Methods: the second international workshop on art for social transformation at Bologna Arte Fiera 27-30 January 2006. Grants for travel and lodging available
Cittadellarte/ Fondazione Pistoletto and Artfactories are organising from 27 to 30 January on the occasion of Arte Fiera 2006 at Bologna Exhibition Center a Second International Workshop on issues related to art and social transformation in our society. The workshop is intended for cultural operators, artists, researchers interested in sharing their own experience, difficulties and elements of evaluation on a creative process. The workshop’s intention is to undertake a survey of the methods and processes developed through artistic projects aiming towards social transformation. The workshop makes a comparison between different creative experiences using the theoretical and practical objectives of interaction between people and social contexts. Projects proposed should find their inspiration from specific social problems and, through a network of community, of public and private sector bodies and institutions, realise new sites and platforms for reciprocal exchange and dialogue. The workshop will be a unique possibility of sharing, learning and analysing in depth this type of projects.
Candidates must fill a questionnaire and submit papers by the 5th of December. Papers will be selected by promoters by the 15th of December. Travelling and board and lodgings for the speakers will be at the expense of the organisation. Download here he application form.
