Welcome to Innovate Heritage: Conversations between Arts and Heritage, an international and inter/transdisciplinary research platform. Through events, online media, publications and partnerships, Innovate Heritage facilitates discourse and knowledge exchange between arts and heritage, uniting artists, scholars, and heritage and arts professionals.
Innovate Heritage 2016 „Art & The City: New Cultural Maps“
27th-28th of October 2016 at the School of Architecture, Mediterranea University.
The University of Reggio Calabria, Italy, is hosting the first satellite edition of Innovate Heritage!
The two-day workshop „Art & The City: New Cultural Maps“ explores intuitions, approaches, views and actions from different perspectives and cultures, facing questions and dilemmas related to heritage management and governance in multi-cultural urban and metropolitan frameworks.
The discussion will focus upon the radical change affecting society and the economy, and transforming the cultural paradigm from a competitive and dimensional struggle into a participative and synergic challenge, with new needs to cross-fertilise tradition and innovation.
Economists, urbanists, jurists, architects, philosophers and artists will perform an intensive and nonprejudicial exchange aimed at crafting sharp questions and drawing credible trails to our future, in the awareness of the growing importance of art and culture in social dynamics.
