NEWSLETTER- NOVEMBER 2013

The 2013 International Survey

After its 2012 edition "Culture: Reasons to Hope," the Forum d’Avignon think tank - which focuses on the links between culture and the economy, and organizes the International Meetings on culture, economy and media - seeks to explore the theme, "Powers of Culture" in all their individual and collective dimensions, international and territorial, symbolic and commercial, technological and creative.

In this perspective, 100 international personalities, artists, philosophers, economists, company directors, public decision-makers are asked to answer these four questions.

1.       What is your definition of culture?
2.       Do you believe in the power(s) of culture? What is the most striking example you can think of to illustrate this power?
3.       Does this power influence your daily life, your work habits, or creative process?
4.       What initiative do you propose to give power to culture?
