| STATEMENT
- CONFERENCE AIMS & OBJECTIVES |
| |
| The
conference offered a creative and positive vision of art to the regeneration
agenda with hard information, documentation and discussion from leading
progressive real-world art projects and urban developments. The event investigated
how art and artist-led approaches, working across disciplines, has influenced
regeneration through the link between creativity, culture and change to
affect the built environment, people, communities and philosophies. The
Great Artistic Metropolis is a title suggested by a reference to the creative,
pragmatic and positive vision of John Maynard Keynes, first chairman
of the Arts Council in 1945 who, "dreamed that cities which were 'half
a ruin' might one day be remade as 'the great artistic metropolis'." |
