08 - 11 September 2011, Wroclaw, Poland Four days of non-stop culture. Exhibitions, concerts, films, theatre performances, and panels. Over 300 artists and renowned intellectuals from all over the world gather in one city. The European Culture Congress will be introduced with the book by Zygmunt Bauman, written on the initiative of the Minister of Culture and National Heritage. Prof. Bauman explores there the genesis of the notion of ‘culture’, analyses processes that culture was subject to both in the past and nowadays, showing developmental threats and chances. Another theme is how the pace of changes – particularly such factors as new technologies, free market, economy, globalization and first of all “compulsive and obsessive ‘modernization’” – determines the shape of the contemporary culture.
