New European Bauhaus
IED is the official partners of the New European Bauhaus Initiative, selected by the European Commission.
The New European Bauhaus is the creative space promoted by the European Commission that establishes a bridge between science, technology, art and culture.
The IED stewardship towards the achievement of tangible scenarios and active shaping of paths for our shared tomorrows revolves around the Euro-Mediterranean perspectives and that of creative intelligencies.
The New European Bauhaus stands as an invitation to tackle complex social challenges, leveraging green and digital transformations through inter-disciplinarity and co-creation. It calls upon individuals, institutions, organizations, businesses, and for society as a whole, to imagine and together build a sustainable future for all.
In Mediterranean Breviary, Predrag Matvejevic states: “Europe was conceived on the Mediterranean: the sea of proximity that made possible the passage of people, knowledge, arts, sciences, goods, tools, and trade".
Today it is increasingly about innovative, creative socio-economic and cultural models built on values such as uniqueness, participation, contamination.
Being conscious of the broader knowledge trajectories, acknowledging their historicity and situation, and fostering indigenous and cross-cultural patrimony are three topics of particular relevance to the IE, given the strong ties between the value chain of global creativity, the dimensions of inter-regional interactions within the IED Network, and the material and immaterial flows of mastery and expertise with the Americas, in particular the latin-american countries where those ties are particularly strong.
The three guiding principles of the New European Bauhaus, Beauty, Togetherness and Sustainability are strongly interconnected: one building and nurturing one another in a constant circular motion. Each representing a starting point but also a fundamental part of the journey, a point of arrival and of a new departure.
