the first European festival on creativity

Previous editions

2015

«È meglio assumere un sottosegretario che una responsabilità», diceva con il consueto humour un grande editore come Leo Longanesi. Frase più che mai attuale, se è vero che sottrarsi alle proprie responsabilità e dare la colpa a qualcun altro sembra essere uno dei vizi più diffusi, perlomeno in Italia. Ma è anche vero che in quest’epoca di grandi innovazioni scientifiche e tecnologiche, e di complessi mutamenti sociali, è il concetto stesso di “responsabilità” ad avere la necessità di essere ridefinito: i valori etici su cui si basava la società del Novecento sono rimasti sempre gli stessi o devono essere riconsiderati e riadattati a questo nuovo mondo globale? A quali nuove responsabilità vengono chiamati quegli scienziati, artisti, intellettuali che con i loro studi e le loro scoperte influenzano profondamente la variegata società di oggi, in continua mutazione? E quale rapporto c’è tra creatività e responsabilità? È per tentare di dare una risposta a questi importanti interrogativi che quest’anno abbiamo scelto la “responsabilità” come filo conduttore del Festival della Mente, dedicato all'indagine delle idee e dei processi creativi.
