ARTS Institute
ARTS (Arts, Research, Territories, Knowledge) was born from the desire of the Jean Monnet University of Saint-Étienne to develop a dynamic of research and training around the arts and the societal, territorial, ethical and political questions they raise, in their own way, illuminated by a historical and epistemological approach.
