22. SEPTEMBAR /16:00 Festivalski centar (Andricev venae br. 2) DESK KREATIVNA EVROPA I FAKULTET DRAMSKIH UMETNOSTI KULTURNA DIPLOMATIJA: UMETNOST, FESTIVALI I GEOPOLITIKA UREDNICA: MILENA DRAGIĆEVIĆ ŠEŠIĆ (U SARADNJI SA LJILJANOM ROGAČ MIJATOVIĆ I NINOM MIHALJINAC) Knjiga je zajednički projekat Deska Kreativna Evropa Srbija i Fakulteta dramskih umetnosti u Beogradu. Desk je prošlog oktobra, zajedno sa Bitefom, organizovao medunarodnu konferenciju: Bitef i kulturna diplomatija: pozorište i geopolitika. Konferencija je osvetlila značaj Bitefa kao festivala na razmedi istoka i zapada, platforme za susret različitih kultura, ispitujuči delovanje Mire Trailovič i Jovana Cirilova, koje je Beograd upisalo na svetsku pozorišnu i političku mapu. Knjiga donosi tekstove u kojima je reč o ključnim pitanjima kulturne diplomatije (meka moč) u svetlu novih geopolitičkih odnosa: kulture straha, poniženja i nade (Mojsi), preispitujuči značaj ideologije i političkog delovanja koje instrumentalizuje kulturu. Autori, od Velike Britanije do Južne Afrike, Argentine i Turske, pišu o izazovima savremene multi/unipolarne situacije, produbljene ekonomskem krizom i migracijama s jedne, a političkim populizmom s druge Strane. Veči broj radova bavi se ulogom festivala, a posebno Bitefa u tim procesima, mogučnostima interkulturalnog dijaloga, vodenja tzv. kulturne diplomatije odozdo. Drugi deo knjige predstavlja rezultate ekspertskih „radnih stolova“ održanih posebno za različite oblasti kulture (muzika, izvodačke umetnosti, književnost itd.) aprila 2016. na inicijativu Deska Kreativna Evropa
22 nd SEPTEMBER /16:00 Festival Centre (Andricev venae 2) THE CREATIVE EUROPE DESK SERBIA AND THE FACULTY OF DRAMATIC ARTS CULTURAL DIPLOMACY: ARTS, FESTIVALS AND GEOPOLITICS EDITOR: MILENA DRAGIĆEVIĆ ŠEŠIĆ (WITH LJILJANA ROGAČ MIJATOVIĆ AND NINA MIHALJINAC) The book is a joint project of the Creative Europe Desk Serbia and the Faculty of Dramatic Arts in Belgrade that organized, together with Bitef, an international conference Bitef and Cultural Diplomacy: Theatre and Geopolitics last October. The conference highlighted the importance of Bitef as a festival at the crossroads of East and West, a platform for meeting different cultures, and it examined the work of Mira Trailović and Jovan Cirilov, who positioned Belgrade on the world theatre and political map. The texts in the first three chapters deal with key issues of cultural diplomacy (soft power) in the light of new geopolitical relations: the culture of fear, humiliation and hope (Mo'isi), re-examining the importance of ideology and political action that are instrumentalizing culture. Authors coming from the UK and South Africa, all the way to Argentina or Turkey, write about the challenges and risks of the modern multi/unipolar situation, deepened by the economic crisis and migrations on one side, and political populism on the other. Most of the papers deal with the role of festivals in these processes (half of them are about Bitef), and with the possibilities of developing intercultural dialogue through arts, through the so-called bottom-up cultural diplomacy.
