EUROPE – WHY BOTHER? ARTISTS AND INTELLECTUALS RESPOND TO EUROPE
For the 4th year, EUNIC London, the network of the cultural institutes from the member countries of the European Union working in London, organised its Annual Conference:
EUROPE – WHY BOTHER? ARTISTS AND INTELLECTUALS RESPOND TO EUROPE
Wednesday 20th November, 9.30am – 2.00pm
Romanian Cultural Institute
Some great European names in the arts, academia and public affairs offered their contribution to the essential debate about the future of Europe, giving voice to the expectations, concerns and resolutions of Europe’s creative sectors. Sharing an alternative, complementary vision to the dominant discourse, the speakers enabled us to collectively explore a vision of post-crisis Europe.
