Artists of all disciplines — this evening is for you.
Musicians, actors, painters, dancers, singers, photographers, filmmakers, potters, jewelry makers, sculptors and creatives of every kind are invited to join an inspiring presentation and conversation about the world of ART.
What is art, really?
How do we create it, experience it, and form opinions about it?
If art is often called a universal language, how do we ensure what we communicate truly reaches others?
Is art defined by quality?
Self-expression? Storytelling?
Rebellion against logic?
Emotion? Skill? Talent? Social validation — or personal ecstasy?
And at what point do we actually become artists?
This thought-provoking evening explores the wonders, challenges, and contradictions of creating and experiencing art. Through a short keynote presentation followed by an open conversation, we will look at the foundations of art and reflect on our own creative practices.
Whether you create art, collaborate with artists, collect it, study it, or simply love experiencing it, this event invites you to see creativity from new perspectives.
If you consider yourself an artist — or feel called to become one — you won’t want to miss this.
Program
• Short keynote presentation
• Interactive conversation and idea sharing
Led by Jani Lakatos — NIVO Award-winning multidisciplinary artist, educator, and presenter.
