irruption of the Global Beach national press conference at the Venice Biennale.
this morning national press conference in Rome of 66. Venice International Film Festival there was an outside program. Before the Biennale President Paolo Baratta, and the Director of the Cinema section, Marco Müller managed to get the word went up on stage the activists of Global Beach, the beach is busy (the first edition was in 2004) by activists of the social centers in Venice Lido , a few steps from the Venice Film Festival. Despite several attempts to drive them, take the word Gaia: "In times of crisis and attack government to culture, entertainment, research and training, including the planned cut in heavy FUS is just the latest example, we decided to make available space Global Beach, all components of the show who are mobilizing in recent weeks, the precarious culture and training students to build together a new subjectivity that can create mobilization and planning and who can take possession of the great stage of the Film Festival.
In a general climate, characterized by ongoing disinvestment in public culture, Venice is a very good model, but no less problematic because, first of all, the city is not immune from cuts in government: the budget of the Biennial will suffer in 2009, a deduction of three million euro in transfers from the state and the same season and symphonic Teatro La Fenice is seriously contested. "Gaia continues:" We also divest real college courses and research. Singular because the culture (visual arts, cinema, theater, architecture, design and higher education related to these disciplines) is rightly understood, not as an accessory, but as a device for the production of wealth. These cuts go to the aggravation of a system that, in spite of the millions and millions of euro launched, there was already based on a wild precariousness of living labor culture. I conclude by again calling on all Global Beach to 1-13 in September. " For contributions, subscriptions and so on:
