Dr Dan Norton
Dear friends, on behalf of the organizing committee it is a true honor to welcome you to the III International Art Week. As coordinator of this third Art Week, my main wish is to publicize our ADEMA University School and our new Fine Arts studies, in a series of teaching and research sessions at the international level that will serve to deepen teaching capabilities to add synergies with professionals from international universities. At Adema we are characterized by our collaborative spirit and by adding new technologies to teaching. Our goal is for these days to be the perfect forum for synergies between teachers, researchers and artists from different disciplines. We want to highlight the value of Fine Arts in education and promote its development from an international and interdisciplinary approach. I thank all the university teachers and researchers who will participate in Art Week, who will contribute with their knowledge to create new forums where Fine Arts will be the key to making a better future for our society. Welcome to Mallorca, I hope you enjoy these days of the incomparable setting that this island offers us. Thank you so much.
Dr. Amparo Sard
Dear friends, on behalf of the organizing committee it is a true honor to welcome you to the III International Art Week. The objective of these teaching and research meetings within the framework of the III Art Week, is to generate favorable spaces to disseminate knowledge of art and creative practice in training environments, especially in the educational field, with a look at the present but with a view to the future. With these international conferences, the aim is to generate a space for reflection without losing the spirit of collaboration so present at the ADEMA University School, as well as the involvement of the people who attend. The participation of relevant university researchers from different countries, institutional leaders, teachers and those people who, both from an educational perspective and from the university, is very interesting to analyze the current situation of research and education in the artistic environment. The initiative is born from the interest of renewing the possibilities that research and teaching of art and technologies bring to educational environments, considering the possibility of generating frameworks and areas conducive to disseminating knowledge of art and creative practice in the training environment, especially in the educational field. Therefore, we are going to try to integrate the concepts of research and education in the field of arts and visual culture, in order to review what has been done so far in this matter; and, above all, manage future proposals. Welcome and I hope that these days are beneficial and that our speakers enjoy Palma and the Island, a beautiful welcoming environment in the Mediterranean. We hope to see you.
