Panel: Creativity and Participatory Urbanism in China
Supported by research and policy reform, China’s creative and cultural industries have seen explosive growth in recent years and this rapid expansion is anticipated to have an unprecedented and farreaching influence on the future of the country and its economy. Researchers from Cultural Development Institute (CDI) based at The Communication University of China (CUC) and The College of Fine Arts (COFA) at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) present recently generated data and discuss Beijing as a case study to provide an informed overview of the recent proliferation of art parks and creative clusters in the city.
