What is the role of artists in society and what do they need to thrive?

You will hear about:

  • the shrinking space for arts and culture.
  • the pandemic’s impact on the cultural scene.
  • how funding processes disadvantage emerging artists.
  • the limits of private money and why it is not the culture sector’s salvation.
  • why we need to change our societal view on arts and culture.
    • Our guests are Anastasia Lemberg-Lvova, artist and founder of De Structura, a multidimensional pan-European initiative that strives to create more opportunities for young people in the art sector, and Gitte Zschoch, Secretary General of ifa, the German “Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen” (engl. Institute for Foreign Relations).
