FORUM THEME

What kind of processes can be opened up and what actions can be proposed from the present sculptural practice towards an ecologically, socially and economically sustainable artistic ecosystem?

Sculpture Network’s International forum in its 15th edition will explore the transformative power of art and sustainable practices. Artists and curators, public and private organisations, we will address and discuss the possibilities of inspiring and disseminating fruitful thoughts and scenarios, imagining other possible futures. We want to identify and inspire alternative earth friendly and fair practices reengaging with nature and the environment.
