5 things art knows about democracy

The arts are necessary for democracy and its survival. Art is an instrument of knowledge in its own right and understands society in ways that journalism or research cannot.

The unbridled beauty is a fire torch for the importance of art for man, society and democracy at a time when it is most needed. Welcome to a conversation based on the book written by Stefan Jonsson.
