On Thursday, September 29th, our Director Deborah Carè participated in ArtLab16 Mantua and joined an interesting roundtable in which different public and private institutions representatives discussed on the relation between Culture and Welfare. They talked about their visions and experiences on the issue Culture and Healthcare aiming at triggering new cultural policies, creating strategic and multidisciplinary alliances to fostering welfare through a bio-psycho-social approach that deems the human development as part of prevention and care strategies. During this meeting, the Director spoke about the Fondazione Ermanno Casoli experience and about the benefits of contemporary art on the business sector.

ArtLab is an event organized by Fondazione Fitzcarraldo. It has reached its eleventh edition and become the main platform for cultural practices and policies innovation, through a structured debate with the creativity and culture system stakeholders. This year, ArtLab16 has developed through various events in Milan, Macerata, Mantua, and Lecce. In Mantua, the Italian Capital of Culture 2016, the ArtLab program was included into the FattidiCultura one, which is a similar cultural event for issues and audiences.
