2025-01-10

Save the dates!

It will be a hybrid event
, but as always, we warmly welcome everyone who can join us locally in a smaller auditorium and take part in our "low-budget" local program. More information will be shared through this newsletter.

The generic theme for the 2025 Urban Creativity initiative is "Territory".
Ideological, physical, disciplinary territories. Private and public territory. Territory of the arts, territory of the sciences. Borders as conventions, abstractions, personal or collective. Defining boundaries, overcoming boundaries, dilution of boundaries. Political territory, communal, liberal, democratic. Territorial absence, materialism, material nihilism.

Graffiti territory: when ends historical graffiti and it starts "modern" graffiti? Were are the limits of the "urban" territory? What can be defined as "the territory of the user"? Art and Place isn't it in the same territory of Public Art?

As you know, Urban Creativity is represented by several publications.
Submissions are welcome trough the following links:
GSA - Graffiti and Street Art Journal 
UXUC - User Experience and Urban Creativity Journal

Deadline for conference abstracts: April 5

Current Issue

Vol 2 No 1 (2024): Ubiquity: Transformation

Ubiquity: Transformation is one of the most profound and enduring concepts in human thought. It transcends disciplines, eras, and cultures, standing as a central pillar of how we understand both the universe and our place within it. From Heraclitus' ancient assertion that "everything flows" (*panta rhei*), to the modern literary explorations of identity and change by writers such as Franz Kafka or James Baldwin, the idea of transformation weaves through history as a narrative of perpetual motion and renewal. In this issue, "Ubiquity: Transformation", we delve into this rich and multifaceted idea, examining the processes of change that shape not only physical spaces but also the human psyche, social structures, and our ways of seeing the world.
