RENASCENT CREATIVITY: Towards a European path in Arts and Cultural Education
Saturday, 17 October – h 3.00 pm / 6.30 pm
Fortezza da Basso, Spadolini Pavilion, Theatre Area
Organised by the Salone dell’Arte e del Restauro di Firenze in collaboration with the European League of Institutes of the Arts (ELIA), this event brings to the fore creativity as a main issue while proposing strategies, methodologies, and opportunities for cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural education. All this in a design to incentivise a “renascence” of the arts through an approach inspired by the models and principles of the Renaissance. The event will take place on Saturday, 17 October at 3 pm, during the first day of X Florence Biennale.
The conference precedes the XIV ELIA Biennial Conference to be held in Florence from 30 November to 4 December 2016.
ELIA is the primary independent network organisation for higher arts education. With over 300 members in 47 countries, it represents some 300,000 students in all art disciplines. ELIA advocates for the arts on the European level, creating new opportunities for its members and facilitating the exchange of best practices.
