31 July - 6 August, 2026



This summer school explores how the video essay can be a dynamic digital 
intervention to suture the fragments of past and present to imagine the 
Venice to come. Combining critical analysis with creative practice, we 
will engage with Venice as both subject and medium, using videographic 
methods to engage intellectually and emotionally with its layered 
histories, cultural resonances, and fragilities. Students will examine 
the city’s cinematic representations, explore video essays as landscapes 
of intellectual, spatial, and emotional experimentation, and reflect on 
the interplay between cultural heritage, social dynamics, and fragile 
ecologies.



Suitable for: participants of all levels - from graduate students to 
tenured faculty - and from any academic background, as the video essay 
is a versatile tool that can be applied across disciplines.
