Experts and artists from nine of Spain’s UNESCO creative cities will host a virtual meeting of the creative field, to be held across all nine cities for the first time. Under the title ‘Preventive Creativity’, the event will include roundtables led by representatives from Granada, Burgos and Llíria to discuss different realities of the cultural sector facing the current crisis, artists’ resilience in this adversity and the role of creativity in the reconstruction of the cities for the future.
Presenters will include author Manuel Vicent, editor Silvia Sesé, chefs Quique Dacosta and Miguel Cobo, musicians Llibert Fortuny and Mario Torrijo, film experts Roberto Lozano, Jesús Lens and Iván Miñambresand, and paleontologist Eudald Carbonell. Other artists from fields as diverse as sculpture, design, drawing and architecture will also participate.
