The official appointment ceremony will be held on Friday, October 17th at 7:00 PM at the Bishopric of Concordia, a building that will be declared an “Emblematic Art Nouveau Building”. Both distinctions will be granted by the Art Nouveau Association of Buenos Aires (AANBA), which will be attended by its president, “Willy” Pastrana, and a contingent of specialists and representatives of said entity.
The distinction is granted by AANBA and the Argentine Art Nouveau Route (RANN), with the support of the National Secretariat of Tourism, and will allow Concordia to actively participate in initiatives that will strengthen its visibility both within the country and abroad.
It should be remembered that in 2024 Concordia was incorporated as the ninth city of the Argentine Art Nouveau Route, becoming the first in the Mesopotamia region to join this prestigious circuit that brings together cities that preserve and promote the architectural and artistic legacy of the movement.
ACTIVITIES WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE RECOGNITION
On Thursday, October 16th, at 7:00 PM, at the Image Museum, the audiovisual presentation “Concordia, Heritage, Tourism and Splendor” will be held, led by architect Ana Elguero, along with the launch of the photography contest “Concordia on the Argentine Art Nouveau Route”, a proposal that invites to rediscover and portray the details and spaces that make up the Art Nouveau legacy in the city.
Concordia reaffirms its commitment to the preservation, dissemination, and enhancement of its historical and architectural heritage, strengthening its cultural identity within the Art Nouveau movement in America. Therefore, it consolidates its projection as a key destination in the Art Nouveau circuit, generating new opportunities for the tourism and cultural development of the Salto Grande Binational Region.
