Sustainability is the model of development indicated as the solution now achievable since it is able to balance the growth of the current generation with that of future generations. There is a close proximity with a concept that runs through entire eras of human culture, namely harmony, as an agreement between equal and different elements from which a positive result derives. Art certainly has a central role in the construction of a sustainable and harmonious present: the artworks propose visions, meanings, realizations, behaviours, and responsibilities - from economy to environment, from work to social relations - fundamental for our, still new, twenty-first century."<h3>Categories:</h3>The "Academy" category is reserved for students regularly enrolled in the Academy of Fine Arts. In the event of a win, the certification of regular registration to the Academy declared during the application phase will be required. The "Open" category is reserved for all the other artists.
