Art Nouveau & Society – Multimedia Presentation’s teaser
Videos
The core action of the Réseau Art Nouveau Network is a multimedia presentation entitled “Art Nouveau & Society”. Designed to be a permanent tool for our partners, it shows the cultural and social history of Art Nouveau and the times in which it developed. In a departure from the Network’s earlier exhibition (Art Nouveau in Progress), this contextual production emphasizes the wider relevance of the pan-European phenomenon that was Art Nouveau, thereby linking the past with the future.

Undiscovered Portrait of Art Nouveau
Exhibitions
Serge Brison has documented the Art Nouveau heritage of nine of the cities involved in the Network, with help from the partners. The aim of the project was to produce an ‘Undiscovered Portrait of Art Nouveau’, illustrating the Network’s commitment to exploring less well-known facets of the movement. The images have also portrayed the current state of Art Nouveau heritage. Brison’s photographic study of European Art Nouveau has produced a series of images that reflect a unique vision of the subject. The exhibition, shown successively across our partner’s cities, presented a selection of 50 photographs selected from 3000 negatives.
