One of the duties of a truly evolved society is that of providing young people with training opportunities which foster knowledge and sense of responsibility of the common good as the founding values of their actions. In order to promote awareness of an ecological and sustainable thought, it is necessary to offer tools that may be used in the development of new professional roles, linked to the ability to plan culture through the ethical and knowledgeable use of the Information Technology and the New Media, as well as an awareness of the mechanisms and devices that regulate a highly developed work market. 

Turin can be considered a workshop city with a European vocation for training. This offers the opportunity to create a network of institutions with specific and diversified skills, such as the DAD -  Architecture and Design Department of Politecnico di Torino and the Fondazione Torino Musei. This enhances the interesting material and immaterial cultural heritage of our territory (architecture, design, the visual arts, web, the Internet of Things…), which thus becomes an opportunity for study, research and training. 

 

The Specializing Master programme is built on a careful analysis of the cultural and entrepreneurial features of our territory, and on the need to train multidisciplinary professionals who, together with a solid background in Humanities, also have the necessary skills to use new technologies. They will also be able to develop projects for new models of entrepreneurship and cultural production, such as: 

1.   design for arts
1. the design of products and services for the art system (museums, galleries, fairs …)        
2. the design of innovative spaces for exhibitions and other events in the art and design field with the objective to involve a new public
3. the design of installations with/for the artists         
4. art and digital products
2. cultural innovation
1. products and services for the fruition of material and immaterial cultural heritage (architecture, landscapes, artefacts, archive documents…);
2. the investigation of the economic value - and not only - of works of art and  design (assessment tools);  
3. critical writing in art, architecture and design with a view to the dissemination of cultural contents. 

The Specializing Master programme offers a complete and well-structured training course which enables participants to address the strategic and project-based aspects of creativity, especially in the fields of art and design. This course aims to train cultural "mediators" who work in the fields of architecture, art system (artists, curators, gallerists, journalists, technicians….) and the general public.
