As a part of the activities dedicated to Intercultural Communication, a special session will also be organised dedicated to the theme “Gaudí, Art and Intercultural Communication”.

This session will be conducted in the form of a round table, and its aim will be to discuss the role of art in an era dominated by the concept of communication and the role art plays or can play in the complex processes of communication between the different cultures.

This activity will be carried out in the framework of the extraordinary programme being organised in the city of Barcelona for the “Gaudí Year” (the celebration of the 150th anniversary of the architect’s birth): http://www.gaudi2002.bcn.es

The plenary sessions on intercultural communication will be open to everyone registered for the Conference. The places are limited, and therefore it will be necessary to make the corresponding reservation by means of the registration form.
