Futurisme: Image and reality of tourism in the Balearics

To commemorate a century of tourism in the Balearics and to promote a social debate on the repercussions of the tourist phenomenon on our surroundings, the Department for Tourism of the Balearic Government via the Instituto Balear del Turismo (IBATUR), has initiated the project: "Futurisme: Imatge i realitat del turisme a les Illes Balears".

Futurisme will gather together over three years different cycles of conferences, debates, exhibitions and other cultural activities. The project started last Wednesday, September 20, with the ceremony of the public recognition of the Danish architect, Jørn Utzon, the author of the Sydney Opera House and resident in Mallorca for many years. The ceremony was part of the International Cycle of Conferences that will continue until November 15 at the Caixa Foundation in Palma.
