Thinking Different: Breaking Barriers in Art

Описание: On June 24, we had the pleasure to host the conference Thinking Different in Art, Science, and Entrepreneurship. Innovation, in every industry, requires original thinking, ability to challenge the status-quo, courage, and creativity.

Artists, entrepreneurs, and scientists, are people that are driven by challenging the way we think, behave and perceive the world. The thinking process of defying the norms and the reality is required, whether in art, business or technology, and science.

Supported by the Israeli Embassy in Spain this event’s speakers from the world of art, science, and entrepreneurship presented real study cases based on their experience for thinking different, they shared their ideas and thoughts on the process that allows them to think differently in their work.

In this talk, Blau spoke with Nir Hindi, founder of The Artian, about her ways to challenge the status quo and break the tradition in her field.

Sarah Blau, author, writer, and journalist, won the prize for creation for writers and poets (2015). Blau’s approach to the literary world repeatedly challenges the concept of literary creation. At the basis of her literary works are Jewish myths that she re-examines. Her last book, “The Others,” which deals with the subject of non-parenthood, once again presents Blau’s ability to stimulate thinking about familiar topics. Throughout her artistic career, she chooses to challenge the status quo, introducing a new angle to accepted themes, or as the judges of the creative prize wrote, “Blau is an original artist, imaginative, daring and rich in style. Her connection to the Jewish world is profound, yet, she has a nonconformist expression that creates a rich world that is connected to tradition and the emotional life and yet bursts out of its boundaries. ”
