Now Sala Dante is about doing cultural management in a new and innovative ways. Let’s get the world more clued in about how Sala Dante is doing it — What is Producciones Dante SL? What is the vision and inspiration ,about starting this unique project? This project was born from the need of young artists to show their progress on stage. The theatres of Palma de Mallorca are rarely open for inexperienced artists, or amateur groups, so they have to go to spaces outside the city to obtain this experience. The Dante Room, as a private company, is always open to anyone who wants to show what they know to the public What is your assumption about the cultures? How it is a major catalyst to connect the world as SoCultures strongly believes in it. Today, thanks to globalization and the media, any artist is able to find sources of inspiration in all cultures, leading to unexpected merger of creative ideas, projects, new creations based on traditions and cultures that ultimately help the culture remain alive in the hearts of art and society. What is CULTURAL MANAGEMENT? Cultural management is that professional work of those who put culture and society in alliance, in rhythmic balance and do not do so as critics or as educators, but rather through cultural programming and cultural projects. A cultural manager fulfills the functions that many times an artist does not know how to perform, especially that of showing art to the public. 128
