Inauguration of the exhibition by NexusArt “A punt per començar”

On Wednesday, October 23, at 6 PM in the Cambó auditorium, the Art Nouveau Site will host a dialogue organized by the PRIMA Foundation. The event will explore the relationship between ecosystems and human health focusing on the connections between water, energy, and food systems. The program will feature Octavi Quintana, Director of the PRIMA Foundation’s secretariat; Cecilia Casorati, Director of the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome; and Fernando Nardi, Coordinator of the NEXUS-NESS project.

The origins and purpose of NexusArt will also be discussed. This multidisciplinary project brings together scientific and artistic coordinators, students, and other participants to explore how art and science can connect to raise awareness of research findings.

With an open perspective on the intersection of science and art, participants will consider the following questions

• How should scientific research on environmental and global health challenges be communicated to reach the general public?
• Can art effectively address the complexity of natural systems and inspire actions to restore balances disrupted by human activity?
• How can interdisciplinary collaboration be fostered to tackle interrelated issues of health and sustainability?
• What spaces or platforms serve to communicate these messages?

Immediately afterward, the NexusArt exhibition “A punt de començar” will be inaugurated in the Espai 1902 room. The exhibition will be open to visitors until November 1st. Entry to the exhibition is free.
