Project title
Arts on Prescriptions Bozar | Brussels
Description of initiative
Considering the burdening of the Covid 19 pandemic, Bozar explored within the Art & Well-being European project how arts and culture can help us to cope in this confusing and threatening world. In this framework they organized a debate and invited a series of interesting speakers, including Dirk De Wachter, Luc Van Gorp, Kristine Timperman, Nils Fietje, Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven and Julie Rodeyns to explore together the concept of arts on prescriptions (i.e. doctors to prescribe a book or a film instead of pills when symptoms of depression or distraught are manifested) and its potential to be implemented at Bozar.
