The Creative Tropical City
Charles Darwin Symposium Series
June 2 & 3, 2004 (Mal Nairn Auditorium)
What is a creative city? Is it, as Richard Florida suggests, a city where
creative people want to live? Or, as Charles Landry claims, is it a city where
the ingenuity of all citizens is utilised to come up with creative solutions to
urban management problems? Perhaps it is a combination of the two?
This symposium explores the connection between the creative arts and city life.
It explores the ways in which the creative arts can enhance the city's
liveability and make it both an attractive place to live and a great place to
visit. It will examine issues to do with the built environment, urban planning,
architecture, cultural policy and planning, but also arts festivals and
intellectual property rights.
This symposium will set the agenda for arts policy debate in the NT.
Keynote Speakers: Professor David Birch (Deakin University); Professor Mark
Lyons (UTS); Professor Brendon Gleeson (Griffith University); Professor Leon
Van Schaik (RMIT).
