4th ELIA Leadership Symposium
01-04 December 2009
The theme of the 4th ELIA Leadership Symposium is “Value is Vulnerable”, inspired by a poem by the Dutch poet Lucebert. The relevance of this theme is underpinned by the current world crisis, which above all is a crisis of trust.
In Zurich, key decision-makers from leading and influential art schools worldwide will enter into discussion with representatives of prominent opera-houses, theatres, art galleries and private collections about the validity of traditional and innovative values as generated by artists and art institutions, in relation to the future of our societies.
The next Leadership Symposium, in 2011, will be held in Vancouver, hosted by Emily Carr University of Art and Design.
