Viquimodernisme case study presented in a Art Nouveau International conference
Since 2003, the Art Nouveau European Route magazine coupDefouet has sought to tell the story of Art Nouveau by focusing on the fine detail while contextualising it within a global outlook. To celebrate coupDefouet's tenth anniversary, the Art Nouveau European Route holded the coupDefouet International Congress in Barcelona on 26–29 June 2013.
The main theme strand of the Congress was Art Nouveau European Cities: Between Cosmopolitanism and Local Tradition. Two local Wikipedians, Àlex Hinojo and Esther Solé, presented the results of the Viquimodernisme case study to an international audience.
