Le giornate di studio di Arte e spazio pubblico | Call for abstract

Organised by Direzione Generale Creatività Contemporanea of the Italian Ministry of Culture and Fondazione Scuola dei beni e delle attività culturali, the study days “Art and public space” will take place on 24, 25, 31 January 2022 and 1, 11 February 2022.

Speaking about art and public space means focusing the discussion on critical and interrogative reflections to reformulate concepts, terminologies and settings while at the same time opening towards new scenarios as regards the processes of defining, designing, and developing artistic practices on the territory.

The proposed contributions should address, also through the presentation of case studies, analyses, investigations, models, methodologies and in-depth studies, one or more of the following themes:

• Art and public space, between pre-existing elements and newly-designed spaces
• The permanence/transformation dialectic that characterizes spaces, also in terms of resilience
• Artistic practice and reterritorialization processes
• Duration as the process time of artistic practices and a factor of the projects’ continuity
• The monument: evolution and currency of values and meanings
• Cultural inheritance and heritage education

The abstracts (max 2000 characters, including spaces, in Italian or English), accompanied by a short bio (max 1300 characters, including spaces), are to be sent using the form available online by no later than 15 November 2021.
