This month, culture360.org announces the launch of its e-ublication Serving Artists Serves the Public, a compilation of 13 articles on various facets of managing arts festivals. This publication is a follow-up to the Atelier for Young Festival Managers organised in Singapore in May 2011, by the Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF) in partnership with the European Festival Association (EFA) and LASALLE College of the Arts, Singapore. The launch will take place at EFA’s General Assembly and Conference on 18 April 2013 in Granada, Spain.
April also sees the launch of a call for DEFAULT13, a masterclass for young visual artists, organised within the framework of ASEF's programme Creative Encounters – Cultural Partnerships between Asia and Europe.
In the ‘By People / In Cities' series, Sali Sasaki interviews Fred Frumberg, Founder and Executive Director of Amrita Performing Arts, a non-profit organisation working to preserve and revive Cambodian performing arts.
Finally, Florentina Bratfanof scouted around the Berlinale Film Festival 2013. We asked her to share her experience with our readers and tell us what it is about the Berlinale that makes it so special.
We wish you all an enjoyable read!
