EURO partnered with EUES centers at the University of Pittsburgh, the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison to host the European Film Festival, an annual event open to the public. The 2024 festival took place last February, featuring a total of four screenings on key themes of security, the environment, and decolonization. Films included Easy Living (Italy), Ramona (Spain), Mitra (Netherlands), and Somewhere Over the Chemtrails (Czech Republic). Each year, a filmmaker is hosted for a Q&A session after the screenings and visits relevant IU courses, including those in the IU Media School.
In collaboration with the University of Pittsburgh’s Europe’s Moving Images Film Festival, the festival will continue annually, with future events planned for 2025 and 2026, offering ongoing opportunities for the IU community and the public to engage with European cinema on important social and political issues.
Description of the video:
This trailer does not have any spoken dialogue, only music.The Security in the EU lecture series, offered every semester, will feature guest speakers discussing a wide range of topics related to security, privacy, and liberty in the European Union. Building on past successful series like “European Perspectives on Democracy” and “Islam in Europe,” this lecture series will also connect with upcoming series, such as “International Law and Populism.” The series aims to foster dialogue and deepen understanding of key issues facing the EU today.
Lecture - The Rise and Rise of Far-Right Populism in Europe
March 21, 2024, 5pm, Shreve Auditorium, IUB
The Security in the EU Lecture Series highlights key issues in European security, featuring experts like Professor Jan-Werner Müller of Princeton University. His lecture on the rise of far-right populism in Europe offered valuable insights into the political challenges facing the EU today. The series provides a platform for discussing critical topics in European politics and security.
EURO and the Center for the Study of Global Change are supporting the Moses Man: Finding Home project by Deborah Haber and Casey Filiaci. This art exchange connects Bloomington and Vienna students to explore themes of displacement, discrimination, and genocide through workshops, presentations, and exhibitions. The project raises awareness of the global refugee crisis and humanizes the challenges faced by displaced populations.

At the Eskenazi Museum of Art as of January 26, 2025!
The IU Eskenazi Museum of Art’s Provenance Research Project investigates the histories of artworks that may have been affected by Nazi-era looting during the Second World War. Established in 2004, the project supports international efforts to address the restitution of looted cultural goods, inspired by the European Parliament’s 2019 resolution on restitution claims. A new exhibition dedicated to this research opened on January 26, 2025, providing visitors with insights into the ongoing work and its broader historical and policy implications. A virtual self-guided tour will also be available, highlighting provenance research and IU’s efforts to trace the origins of its European collections.
