Framed within the Creative Europe-funded project Art Nouveau as a New EUtopia, the Summer School embraces the project’s central ambition: to explore how Art Nouveau, as a key European heritage style, can inspire new reflections on sustainability, the relationship between humans and nature, and the evolving role of cultural heritage in today’s society. Drawing on the rich legacy of Art Nouveau and building upon the achievements of past European and international initiatives, the Summer School invites participants to engage in a dynamic and interdisciplinary programme that reimagines this heritage movement in light of contemporary challenges.
