Academic and Critical Meeting (From a letter from the Centro Wifredo Lam, September 2000) |
||||
The Seventh Havana Biennial will open on 17th November 2000, with 170 artists, designers and architects, from more than 40 countries, attending. Various spaces in the Historic Center and the modern part of the City of Havana will be utilized, on the theme of Closer to One Another. As has been the case at the six previous Biennial, we have organized an Academic and Critical Meeting, through debating sessions, focusing on the central theme of the Biennial, which, on this occasion, will be personal relations, communication between human beings, and the issue of the role of the new agents which interpose themselves between men. As there are certain topics which arise from the central discussion theme - among them the significance of architecture and urbanism, as conditioning factors of human spaces - we considered it necessary to briefly describe them below, in order to make our aim of encouraging your active participation in the event, more tangible. These topics will be discussed in work sessions, whether through individual presentations or round table, chaired by a member of the Organizing Committee, and, broadly speaking, are the following:
