Research on Art Nouveau Architecture in Riga in the Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries: History and New Approaches

Recent research on Riga's Art Nouveau architecture has introduced significant advancements in terminology, contextual understanding, and factual material, challenging the long-established canon shaped by Jānis Krastiņš. The study leverages digitized periodicals from the National Library of Latvia and archival research, enriched by contributions from international scholars including Dalia Klajumienė (Lithuania), Karin Hallas (Estonia), Jeremy Howard (UK), and Eduards Kļaviņš. This interdisciplinary approach has expanded the field's knowledge base and offered new interpretative perspectives on Riga's architectural heritage.
