With a very specific notion of art and art intervention influenced by anthropology and ethnography, the EBANCollective will add a new and we hope original element to the national network, promoting and sharing our view of art as a working force in society at large and as a powerful tool to tackle social issues and to improve intercultural dialogue.
As anthropologists we strongly believe in the possibility and necessity of intercultural dialogue, especially at a time of growing conflict. The ALF offers a chance to build a working network between Europe and countries of the South Mediterranean, one of the present day major zone of conflict and of contact. We are eager to contribute with our practical knowledge to this conversation.
