New IETM publication on performing arts and globalisation

'Shifting Scales and Sceneries' is the latest publication in the IETM Fresh Perspectives series. Eric Corijn looks at Art, Globalisation and Territories, considering how the performing arts in Europe have responded to global transformation forces and whether they mirror a re-scaled world.
This new publication of IETM’s Fresh Perspectives series deals with performing arts and territories. Global issues like economic stress, environmental challenges and migration flows are influencing and transforming European cities and their populations. National identities no longer correspond to national borders; the physical and the mental spaces we inhabit – our territories – are shifting.
How did the performing arts react to these shifts? Are they playing in national territories, in regions or in urban networks? Are they European, local or global – alternatively or at the same time? Whose stories do they tell? And how are they part of the geopolitical or socio-economic gaming? These are the key questions at the origin of this essay
