We are happy to announce the 2010 collaborative forum between the Faculty of

Fine and Applied Arts at Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand and URP

 & UCRC of Osaka City University, Japan.  This forum aims to create a space

for graduate students and scholars to share their research in visual art,

creative art, performance studies, dance, cultural studies, ethnomusicology,

and related disciplines connected to the study of academic and vernacular

interpretation of urban culture through arts.

This year's forum seeks to explore the following questions:

1. What are the social challenges in urban communities calling for
innovative solutions across the arts and creative spaces?

2. How do we engage the various players and sectors of the arts world to
unite and coordinate their efforts to play a more integral role in city
development?

3. How do we build creative, sustainable and inclusive communities in urban
and suburban environments?

4. How can new media and alternative media and forms and new forms of
artistic expressions open new spaces for transformation?

5. How can the arts world build partnerships with youth clubs, schools,
civil society, media and city governments to support initiatives for
creative community development?

In short: How do we design the relations of the arts and a new urban future?

Objectives:

1. Identifying and exploring social issues and problems in urban
environments and the space through the arts

2. Exploring new art forms and creative initiatives in city environments
across the spectrum of artistic expressions (music, dance, visual arts,
photography, design etc.)

3. Identifying areas for future work and capacity building in urban culture
studies.
