future IETM publications: have your say!
Submitted by Elena DI FEDERICO on 09.09.2016.
We're planning a new set of publications for the years to come. What are the most urgent topics you want to read about? It's time to have your say!
The topics we're planning to tackle are the following:
- Environmental crisis
- Global migration flows
- Freedom of expression / censorship (by governments, the crowd, the Internet...; ethics of sponsorship)
- Hyperlocalism, work in rural areas and smaller cities
- Inclusion / equality (ethnic and cultural diversity, gender balance, disability...)
- Shrinking public funding for the arts (and not only); neoliberalist doctrine
- Working conditions for the performing arts (health and safety, wages, social protection, work-life balance...)
- Neocolonialism in the arts - and how to resist to it
- Sustainable models: co-creation, co-productions, capitalising on internal assets...
- Ethics and the arts (ethics of sponsorship, relation with politics, fair working conditions...)
Feel free to comment on any of these and add your proposals, as well as suggest interesting possible authors (also from other fields than the arts).
Also, are you satisfied with the current pdf formats or would you like to have publications available for e-readers too?
Other themes:
- evaluation of artistic institutions (theatres, cultural centres, fetivals, etc)
- How the artistic institutons comunicate? Critical vision of cultural marketing marketing
- programmers and artists
- the future of programmers. Who decides internationaly what is on?
- The ionvasion of "culture" by the economic discurse
Thank you Miguel - re- evaluation, we're designing a toolkit for self-evaluation of organisations and companies (of different size & nature) that will be discussed with the author in Valencia. You can join the session 'Assess yourself!' there if this topic is of your interest!
Hi IETM:ers i like to add on the sustainable models: co-creation, co-productions. The lived co-archive and how we can reactivate dialogue out of the lived to the present and future again.
Hi Elena, as already mentioned to Nan and you, i would very much like to cooperate on a publication about Arts made in the Region. I just return from Australia where i attended Artlands: a meeting of 600 artists, policymakers, cultural workers, a festival and a conference in one, and all about art for the regions / rural areas. The ENRD is interested in a publication about art to connect the rural and the urban too. I will investigate what the ENCC thinks. best wishes, Henk Keizer
Thanks, Henk! Keep us posted and we'll speak soon
