Boris Grebille’s May-June editorial
I will leave my position as director of IESA arts&culture on June 1st to become head of education for the Arts & Creation Division of Galileo Global Education France. Even though I am not going very far and my new duties will give me the chance to see many of you again, it is still with emotion that I say thank you for the more than twenty years spent in this school! Thank you for the exchanges, thank you for the projects, thank you for the trust…
I have always wanted IESA arts&culture to be above all a place of questioning and dialogue, open to the major issues of our societies, rich in different cultures and unique audiences. I do not believe our world needs people who provide answers but rather witnesses who question and question themselves. Artists are in this sense the lungs and the prophets of our societies. At IESA, they are our reference and our reason for being. All the professions we train for depend on their way of seeing, their ability to speak and bring things to life, their incredible talent for helping us grow, that is, for building ourselves by opening up to others.
I hope the articles in this newsletter will reflect the questions and discussions that nourish our students and that they in turn wish to share through the projects they carry out.
