* Durante el semestre se presentará una propuesta legislativa para la tramitación del expediente ‘Sello del Patrimonio Europeo’
* El Libro Verde sobre las Industrias Culturales se presentará en el Consejo de Ministros de Cultura del 11 y 12 de mayo
* La Presidencia Europea impulsará el debate sobre EUROPEANA y analizará el impacto de la digitalización en la industria del cine

La ministra de Cultura, Ángeles González-Sinde, ha comparecido ante la Comisión de Cultura del Parlamento Europeo para presentar las principales líneas de actuación de la Presidencia Española de la Unión Europea en el ámbito cultural y que se centran, fundamentalmente, en tres ejes prioritarios: aprovechar el potencial cultural con vistas al desarrollo local y regional; consolidar la cultura como factor de crecimiento economico y de cohesión social; y desarrollar y difundir los contenidos culturales de carácter digital.

“Situar la cultura entre las prioridades de la agenda europea contribuirá no sólo a acelerar la recuperación económica y a la creación de empleo, sino que también fortalecerá a la ciudadanía y hará también más fuerte el proyecto europeo”, ha manifestado la ministra de Cultura en el transcurso de su intervención. Igualmente ha destacado la importancia de velar por la diversidad cultural, de respetar y defender todas las lenguas europeas para que cada ciudadano europeo pueda dirigirse a las instituciones de la Unión en su lengua materna.

1ª prioridad: Aprovechar el potencial cultural con vistas al desarrollo local y regional
La iniciativa comunitaria Sello del Patrimonio Europeo, promovida inicialmente por Francia y España, se plasmará en una propuesta legislativa de la Comisión de Cultura durante la Presidencia Española de la UE. Los principales objetivos de esta iniciativa son fomentar la identidad europea y la participación de los ciudadanos en la construcción de Europa; promover el patrimonio cultural europo; y el desarrollo sostenible a través del turismo cultural.

La Ministra incluso ha anunciado que se tratará durante el próximo Consejo de Ministros de Cultura que se celebrará los días 11 y 12 de mayo y ha manifestado su compromiso para que la tramitación de dicho expediente progrese. La protección y promoción del patrimonio cultural europeo también será el objetivo básico de la conferencia de expertos que tendrá lugar en la ciudad de Cáceres, declarada Patrimonio Europeo, del 19 al 21 de abril.

2ª prioridad: Consolidación de la cultura como factor de crecimiento económico y de cohesión social
Durante su intervención, González-Sinde ha destacado la contribución de las industrias culturales y creativas a la generación de empleo y al crecimiento económico, por lo que ha anunciado la intención de la Presidencia Española de contribuir a su impulso y aprovechar las oportunidades que esta industria ofrece para consolidar la cultura como factor de crecimiento económico y cohesión social.

En este sentido ha recordado la próxima celebración del II Foro Europeo sobre Economía y Cultura y de la reunión informal de Ministros de Cultura donde también se tratará el futuro Libro Verde de la Comisión sobre las Industrias Culturales, cuya presentación formal esta previsto que tenga lugar en el Consejo de Ministros de Cultura del 10 y 11 de mayo.

3ª prioridad: Desarrollo y difusión de los contenidos culturales de carácter digital
El tercer eje prioritario de la Presidencia Española en el ámbito cultural es desarrollar y difundir los contenidos culturales de carácter digital con el fin de, no sólo adaptar la cultura europea al cambio, sino de liderar este cambio. Durante su intervención la Ministra ha detallado como: incentivando la extensión de la digitalización de nuestro patrimonio cultural para su difusión, promoviendo la creación cultural en la red, y aplicando las tecnologías digitales a los servicios culturales europeos.

Esta tercera prioridad se tratará en profundidad en el Consejo de Ministros de Cultura de mayo y a través de un seminario sobre digitalización de contenidos culturales, bibliotecas digitales y derechos de autor que se celebrará los días 12 y 13 en Madrid.

Respecto al futuro de la biblioteca digital europea Europeana, la Presidencia española tratará de que el Consejo adopte unas conclusiones destinadas a consensuar que Europeana evolucione hacia una iniciativa comunitaria. El objetivo es generar mayores esfuerzos de digitalización, conseguir una mayor estabilidad financiera, y dotar a la biblioteca digital de unas estructuras de gestión más capacitadas para hacer accesible el patrimonio europeo digitalizado.

Finalmente, la Presidencia Española de la Unión Europea, en el ámbito del desarrollo y difusión de los contenidos digitales, abordará el debate sobre el desafío que supone la integración de las tecnologías digitales en la difusión y exhibición del cine en Europa. Los días 5 y 6 de marzo tendrá lugar en Barcelona el seminario sobre El impacto de la tecnología digital sobre la exhibición cinematográfica, cuyo objetivo es reflexionar sobre como afectará esta transformación en el futuro de las salas de cine.

Según González-Sinde
Barcelona será la protagonista cultural durante la presidencia española de la UE

BARCELONA, 20 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –

Barcelona será la capital protagonista de la cultura durante la presidencia de España en la Unión Europea (UE), según dijo este miercoles la ministra de Cultura, Ángeles González-Sinde, en alusión al Foro Europeo de Industrias Culturales y al diálogo de ministros de cultura europeos que se celebrarán a finales de marzo en la capital catalana.

Organizado por la Cámara de Comercio de Barcelona, la Comisión Europea y el Ministerio de Cultura español, el Foro se concibe como una continuación del Congreso Internacional de Economía y Cultura que se celebró en Barcelona en mayo de 2009.

A la presentación del foro que se celebró esta mañana asistieron miembros del sector cultural de la ciudad, como el director de L’Auditori de Barcelona, Joan Ollé; el presidente del grupo Focus, Daniel Martinez, y el ex presidente del Consell Nacional de la Cultura i de les Arts (CoNCA), Xavier Bru de Sala.

“Hemos apostado de forma decidida por esta ciudad por confianza y convicción”, aseveró la ministra, que calificó la elección de “lo más natural” habida cuenta del motor cultural que es Catalunya con sectores, por ejemplo, como el editorial.

El Foro Europeo de Industrias Culturales congregará a representantes de las industrias culturales en Barcelona el 29 y 30 de marzo para tratar cinco ejes temáticos: la financiación y los profesionales de las industrias culturales, su internacionalización, la propiedad intelectual, y la gestión de derechos y el desarrollo territorial.

Según explicó hoy el director del Programa de Gestión Cultural de la Universitat de Barcelona (UB), Lluís Bonet i Agustí, el foro acabará con una reunión informal de ministros de cultura europeos –la formal se hará en Bruselas en 11 de mayo–, para presentar las principales conclusiones del foro.

Estas dos citas fijan a Barcelona “en todas las agendas políticas europeas”, aseguró la ministra, quien añadió que la agenda cultural será “intensa” durante este semestre en la capital catalana porque el 5 y 6 de marzo se realiza un seminario sobre el impacto tecnológico digital en el cine, “otro de los desafíos” del sector, dijo.

Barcelona será el punto neurálgico de la cultura Europea
La capital catalana acogerá a finales de marzo una cumbre sobre políticas e industria cultural, con la asistencia de los ministros de la UE

ELPAIS.com – Cultura – 20-01-2010
La ministra de Cultura Ángeles González-Sinde ha acudido a Barcelona para presentar el Fórum Europeo de Industrias Culturales que se celebrará los días 29 y 30 de marzo, el principal encuentro previsto por la presidencia española de la Unión Europea en materia de cultura y que precederá a la reunión informal de los ministros de Cultura que tendrá lugar al día siguiente día 31 de marzo.

Para esa cita, precisamente, anunciaron movilizaciones los miembros de la plataforma RedSOStenible, que se oponen la polémica ‘ley antidescargas’ que prepara el Ejecutivo para acabar con las webs que faciliten, sin autorización, contenidos protegidos por derechos de autor.

El Foro Europeo congregará a 500 profesionales y 70 ponentes europeos de las industrias culturales que tratarán cinco ejes temáticos: la financiación, los profesionales de las industrias culturales, su internacionalización, la propiedad intelectual, y la gestión de derechos y el desarrollo territorial. Durante el foro se presentará el Libro Verde de las Industrias Culturales de la Comisión Europea.

La elección de Barcelona como capital de la cultura en el semestre de la presidencia se ha hecho “no por azar, sino por confianza y convicción”, según González-Sinde “es lo más natural por su tradición, especialmente en sectores como el editorial, en el que es uno de los polos internacionales de la edición en castellano”, ha asegurado.

Y subraya la conveniencia de tomar en consideración la naturaleza atípica de los métodos de trabajo del artistaconcluyendo que el reto de una política cultural europea consiste en construir un entorno cultural dinámico, de creación y de innovación en todos los ámbitos artísticos, lo cual no será posible sin ofrecer alos artistas las garantías sociales que se conceden a los demás trabajadores europeos.

GROUPS AND SPACES	GROUPS
GROUP LISTINGS | SUBMIT YOUR GROUP INFORMATION
A List of Artist Groups This is an incomplete list of previously and currently active artist groups. While there are some performance art groups, theater and dance troupes are generally not included, nor are music groups, publishers, or more strictly activist political groups. Some curatorial collectives are included – both collectives of strictly curators and collectives of artists who curate. The seemingly patternless variety of places and names in this list belies the idea that group practice or collaboration are part of a trend defined by time or location. Rather, these groups are part of a larger culture of collectivity and collaboration – a way of making art that is built upon the idea of working together. The creation of this list was itself a group effort. We reached out to our friends and colleagues, to announcement lists and bulletin boards on the Internet, and additional people, groups and organizations. We have tried to confirm information to the best of our abilities, but any list like this is bound to contain errors. Many people sent us information on behalf of inactive groups that we were unable to confirm through other sources. Information on many of these groups – particularly inactive groups – is often very hard to come by. Histories of many groups are scarce, or were never recorded in a focused way or made accessible. Additionally, not all group members agree on the year that their group was founded, the date when it may have ceased operations or what to list for their location. Many groups become inactive but never officially dissolved. Additional Notes: Some groups on this list began as three or more people but are now administered by one or two persons or have changed focus; these groups are still listed in “Groups of 3 or More People” in the event that they may grow again. Some groups were started by two people but quickly grew and remained a larger group; these groups are primarily in “Groups of 3 or More People” as well. “Groups of 1 or 2 People” are groups that are generally administered by one or two people but commonly execute projects with additional people outside of the group and/or use a group name to both complicate the authorship of their work and insist on the fact that all art making is collaborative at some point, even if one chooses to hide this. We have not included studios and ateliers that are named for an individual artist (for example, Atelier Van Lieshout or Acconci Studios). These arrangements typically have a more hierarchical structure than most of the groups included in this list and don’t necessarily celebrate the more egalitarian forms of creation that come from collaboration. This list also excludes individual artists who maintain individual authorship but work as a collective primarily to share resources, information and opportunities (for example, a women’s photography collective). The focus is on people who produce collaborative projects under a group name. Pairs of artists working together under a group name are included. Collaboratives of two people that use the artists’ actual names (for example, Komar and Melamid) are not. These personally named collaborations imply a closed structure rather than a platform for collaboration that could potentially expand to include others, or endure a change of membership. - Temporary Services Many thanks to Greg Sholette, Scott Rigby, Ava Bromberg, and Daniel Tucker for their support and many conversations about gettting this site going again.
