IdeasCity explores the future of cities with culture as a driving force. In 2016-2017, IdeasCity will present a program of events designed under the supervision of IdeasCity Director Joseph Grima, and held across two continents in three cities: Athens, New York, Detroit and Arles.

 

IdeasCity is a collaboration with the New Museum, New York. It will consist of a series of five-day workshops, site visits, talks and discussions with specialists and professionals, including artists, researchers, designers, and leading practitioners and members of the cultural scene, who will develop ideas and strategies to overcome the pressing challenges facing urban centres today.

 

Participants will be selected via an open call, and will work together in order to find solutions to issues specific to Athens.
