Bilateral exchanges

Every year two countries work together on an annual theme. The young come together and the workshops take place in two countries.
Through their creative gesture, the young reflect on access to culture, the role of cultural institutions and the place of culture.
The medium of expression is mostly video because in their environment the young are immersed in images (cinema, television, video games, multimedia, advertising, etc.). Images are their main source of information, their access to the world, the means by which they imagine, express and share.

In the first year of YEAD, during the bilateral exchange between Italy and France, an intensive training programme was organised by Fondazione Ismu so as to provide museum professionals and film-makers with new skills and know-how to reach cross-cultural audiences, with a particular focus on underrepresented groups and individual.
