l’art au coeur du territoire


As art and culture move away from their role as tools in gentrification processes they become instrumental in the emergence of a new development model. The history of the city of Nantes is symptomatic of the transformations caused by globalization in the past three centuries. Today, the knowledge economy is central in the city's efforts to make art a driving force for the development of its territory.
Five perspectives on the role of the Arts and Higher Art Education could be addressed in the framework of the 11th ELIA Conference and feed the different symposia and discipline sessions:
  1. Arts at the heart of the "way of living", questioning behaviours.
  2. Arts encourage the emergence of contributors in place of consumers.
  3. Arts name and identify territories.
  4. Arts meet science and question environments.
  5. Arts reinvent and "moralize" customs.
