PROGRAMME DAY I
FOR A GLIMPSE OF THE FUTURE, LOOK TO THE PRESENT- PART I Contemporary cities are fertile soil for science and technology, for culture and innovation, for individual and collective development. However, cities are also places where problems such as Noise-Air-Light-Odour pollution, poverty, unemployment and exclusion run rife. How do artists cope with these challenges? How do they explore major themes such as( over) consumption, globalization and virtualization, resource scarcity, social and economic inequality, privatization and commercialization? Are these challenges an instrument for imagining the future city, to criticize society and / or present possibilities for improvement?
