What is the role of art in today’s world? Why it should be much more a part of our lives? How art encourages our ability to constantly renew our knowledge? Why art as intersection of knowledge and feelings has becoming more and more important in terms of business, in terms of education, and also in terms of how we deal with the challenging situations we are facing today? What is the interrelation between art and other fields, and why is it so important to bridge the gap between them?
What role the local element plays in a global language/phenomenon of art? Are there borders in art?
