Antonio López y Guillermo Solana: La cultura como motor del progreso.

The international congress “The World to Come” was held on June 18 and 19 at the Zaragoza Conference Center. The cultural dimension of the future was explored by the painter Antonio López, an undisputed figure in Spanish realism, and Guillermo Solana, artistic director of the Thyssen Museum. Their dialogue championed artistic creation as a profound human need and as the collective memory of a society, reflecting on how art, throughout history, has documented and given meaning to the world around it. The debate centered on the risks of an increasingly individualistic and narcissistic culture versus the potential of an artistic moment unprecedented in its plurality and diversity of expressions. They presented culture not as a complement, but as the true driving force behind progress, defining values ​​and uniting societies, in contrast to a technology that executes but fails to provide meaning.
