2020 has globally redefined our common lives as we have been forced to reconceive them both in terms of time and space, leading us to a profound reflection on the social changes which will follow. Windows have become our real and metaphorical vantage points from which we observe our world and the new scenarios awaiting our local and global communities.<\/em><\/p>\n

As crisis exacerbates inequalities, new perspectives on dialogue and cooperation are emerging just when they seem more necessary than ever. We have learnt to observe the world from a distance, while we also got closer to ourselves by practicing a mindful introspection.\u00a0 Living-without-others allows us to reflect on the sense of our community and challenges us to keep building and finding new identities and meanings. <\/em><\/p>\n

Which idea of community are you picturing out of your window?<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>In order to answer and meditate upon such question 207 artworks<\/strong> have been submitted to the second edition of Art and Act (Marie Marzloff Award<\/a>), an art contest organised by CESIE.<\/p>\n

These ideas of community<\/em> came from 27 different countries sharing diverse perspectives on the reality we are living in and confirming \u00a0– once again – \u00a0the role of art as a universal means of communication and intercultural dialogue.<\/p>\n
