Edi Rama -- the mayor of Tirana, Albania, for 11 years -- was an artist before a politician.
“I still paint. I love the joy that color can give to our lives and to our communities,” says Rama in today’s talk, filmed at TEDxThessaloniki. “I try to bring something of the artist in me to my politics.”
Tirana, Albania’s capital city, was downtrodden when Rama took office.
Regardless of your opinion about his decisions, he gave a pretty good talk here. Bravo edi rama, keshtu te vazhdojme
