political and social change by exposing
political and social issues.

writers and artists, the destruction of cultural
heritage
Art and culture create space for imagination,
dialogue and interpretation.

values – a free society needs cultural
innovation – art is also an aim in itself, as a
mirror and interpreter of our existence.
Monuments and art treasures make a shared
past visible and thus strengthen inter-cultural
ties.
Cultural heritage reinforces cultural and
historical self-awareness.
Cultural exchange can enrich our lives by
