Tuesday 3 July - Sunday 8 July 2007
Summer Workshop. Gattières, France
This summer school is designed to provide participants with a knowledge of international aspects of arts management. Located near Nice in the South of France, Gattières is a commune comprising 4,000 inhabitants, 800 of whom live in the old village. The church of Saint Blaise protects the village and this saint is celebrated annually by a festival held on February 4. There is an opera festival, and the recently opened ECAM contemporary Art Space 'Le Jardin' was inaugurated by Michelangelo Pistoletto in 2004. The village is located near thriving artistic centres such as St Paul de Vence, Nice and the Fondation Maeght. This area is close to important international summer arts exhibition and festival sites such as the Avignon Theatre Festival, Aix en Provence Opera Festival, the Venice Biennale and Documenta in Kassel Germany .
ACADEMIC PROGRAM
The academic program combines formal classes, site specific excursions which use the regional arts centres as fieldwork, and seminar style discussions. Participants will undertake an intensive course of study starting daily at 9am with formal classes with leading professionals and academics in the field. The afternoon sessions are field work and the evening sessions are analytical seminars. The format is intensive and inter-disciplinary and participants will develop lateral skills in the field as they learn to apply the theory developed in the morning classes to analysis of the institutions which they visit in the afternoons and in the evenings lecturers will be invited to join the program participants over dinner for lively seminar style discussions about the day's classes and activities. As Gattières is situated in one of the most densely populated regions for galleries in Europe, classes will be complemented by field excursions to the galleries, museums and performing arts venues which comprise the Fondation Maeght near St Paul de Vence, the Chagall, Dufy, Matisse, Pop Art museums in Nice which is also the home of Arman, Ben, Yves Klein, Nivese, Sosno and Ceasar.
THE FACULTY
The workshop is organized and hosted by Professor Pierre Guillet de Monthoux, Distinguished Affiliated Scholar to the UB Arts Management Program and Dr Ruth Bereson, Director UB Arts Management Program. The preliminary program includes Professor Romain Laufer, Professor of Marketing at HEC, Paris and Professor Alladi Venkatesh Graduate School of Management University of California, Irvine as well as Arts Managers from the region.
OTHER OPPORTUNITIES
Participants may also choose to attend academic conferences in the fields of arts and management and aesthetics which occur in Europe in summer. This year they may wish to attend Documenta in Kassel and participate in the Nomadic University's program which offers postgraduate students, researchers and leaders within culture and economy a platform to develop and reflect on questions concerning the synergies between art and economy from a global and European perspective.
