        ART AND SOCIETY.
        A WORKING GROUP FOR VENICE HAS BEEN SET UP
        Project building, around research and shared visions with bodies and institutions 
        operating in the territory for a responsible transformation of civil society 
        
        The workshop, which took place over two and a half weeks between July 
        and September, involved an interdisciplinary group with the purpose of 
        producing a series of projects of public utility. The aim is to support 
        the improvement of human relations and quality of life with an optimal 
        and balanced use of material resources in the Venice area. Socially active 
        people such as artists, curators, philosophers and researchers highlighted 
        alternative viewpoints through a common research process, by presenting 
        projects aimed at ameliorating the cultural, environmental and productive 
        urban context.
