The results of the Fall 2013 photo and video competition will also be announced.
1 - Venice in Everyday Life: what is really different in Venice, beyond the obvious, compared to other cities in the world? Entries should focus on what living in Venice means and on how inhabitants of Venice cope with the difficult situations that arise everyday (transport, mass tourism, bridges, high tides, etc.). How do you see Venice outside the tourist routes? Is it possible to capture the true soul of Venice in a single frame?
2 - Multicultural Life@VIU: how do the students narrate the experience of studying and living at Venice International University? Entries should focus on the unique multicultural experience of mixing students and professors of different nationalities and cultures and should show the various perspectives of VIU life.
3 - VIU outside VIU: what happens during the co-curricular activities? What about the midterm break in Italy and Europe? Traveling together is a great way to get to know others.
Friends of VIU faculty, students and staff are welcome at the Closing Ceremony. |
