ARTools is a project for a better understanding of contemporary changes, through the support of ART. The project defines the milestones of the global changes and detects through the visual arts how changes have been foreseen, perceived and metabolised by society. EDUCATION is the stage where young people and their teachers could learn how to use creativity. For that reason the project works mainly with and for subjects whose activity has a high multiplier effect, i.e. cultural operators, responsible of educational activities. CHANGES are described through the paradigm of sustainability (ecological crisis, digital revolution, the demographic boom, the globalisation of the economy, the dominance of the science) in coherence with European policies.The project is a partnership lead by the GAMeC, Modern and Contemporary Galley (Italy) and shared among CIAP, Centre International d'Art & du Paysage (France), Malmö Konsthall (Sweden), M csarnok Kunsthalle, (Hungary). The project start setting a diversified material for the educators, a sort of polyphonic talk on contemporary challenges where relevant thinkers give their critical interpretation of the contemporary and international scenarios. Hence, it starts the search for those artists that have better incorporated these issues in their art works. Through them and their works starts the experience of the young people and students involved in perceiving how global problems could affect individuals.Many are the activities shared among the partners with the aim to compare experience, learning approaches, cultural attitudes and to build a toolkit devoted to teachers in order to enrich the educational experiences. This is a test to verify the possibility to establish an ARTools stable network on creative education (ARTools Net). Each partner tests the toolkit in local educational activities, creating final exhibitions for displaying the links between challenges, artists' artworks, the children's new visions on the future.
