Reflections on the creation of the CCNs in Italy

A new cultural institution stimulates reflections on the missions and functions it will need to undertake. As well as on the role it will play in relation to issues such as the cultural complexity of our country, the relationship between artistic and productive areas, and the optimisation of the systems that the modern world would like to see more and more flexible.
Fondazione Nazionale della Danza / Aterballetto takes its cue from the introduction of the National Choreographic Centres to start a workshop series. Aterballetto is available to stimulate further in-depth studies.
