the first European festival on creativity

2012 Programme

Event #28

Mauro Agnoletti, Ilaria Borletti Buitoni

Culture, environment, landscape. For a possible, sustainable future

The Italian landscape does not only reflect the country’s recent history: it is our very identity. Be it urban, natural or agricultural, in the past thirty years Italy’s landscape has undergone constant changes but little or no attention had been paid to the artistic heritage that makes it unique or to the damage done by construction work to the soil. Starting over from culture means not only to recover the pride of being Italian but also to develop the country’s talent. For the modern notion of landscape, understood as an economic, environmental and social resource rather than an elitist phenomenon, requires a change in the models proposed by politics, as well as in the culture. This dialogue between two great experts who are personally committed to safeguarding the Italian landscape will take place 10 months after the floods that destroyed the area of La Spezia and the Lunigiana.
