UNIDEE

At Biella in Piemonte, the artist Michelangelo Pistoletto has created his own foundation under the name of Città dell’Arte (City of Art). Within this “city” Pistoletto has also founded his own university – the University of Ideas. The courses, along with the structure itself of the “professors”, have little to do with those in traditional universities. Applications for 2001 are now being received, with places limited to only 20 students who have demonstrated design ability either in the artistic field or other disciplines. Lectures will take place in July and from September to October will take the form of symposiums, open lectures and seminars lead by experts and individuals from the world of art and culture at both a national and international level, with the aim of guiding the student to finding ideas to develop their own art projects. Students will also have the opportunity to participate in planned events as exhibitions, conferences and workshops held by the lecturers, as well as putting together an exhibition of work carried out during the academic year.
