The Urban creativity coordinators, Peter Bengtsen (Division of Art History and Visual Studies) and Erik Hannerz (Department of Sociology), recently attended the annual Street Art & Urban Creativity conference in Lisbon, Portual. Here they presented their plans for the upcoming Pufendorf research theme on Urban Creativity.

The theme will run 1 October 2018 - 31 May 2019. During this period, an interdisciplinary group of eight researchers will arrange a number of activities (e.g. workshops, talks, seminars, film screenings), both at The Pufendorf Institute for Advanced Studies and elsewhere. The theme will be rounded off with a conference in May 2019.

More information about the theme can be found here.

Updates about activities will be posted to the theme's Instagram.

Anyone interested in visiting or otherwise collaborating with the Urban Creativity research group is welcome to contact the coordinators.
