13th Monaco and the Mediterranean International Meetings

13th Monaco and the Mediterranean International Meetings is organized by the Monegasque Association for the Appreciation of the Arts (AMCA) from 5 to 6 March 2026.

For this thirteenth edition, the symposium is devoted to the figure of Ulysses, hero of journeying and return, whose myth has spanned the centuries and continues to illuminate Mediterranean culture.

Through the arts, literature, history, cinema, and contemporary thought, the presentations will offer a multidisciplinary reflection on the reinterpretations of Ulysses—as a figure of wandering, intelligence, memory, and exile.

Researchers, academics, writers, art historians, and artists will bring their perspectives together to examine the relevance of this myth in light of the cultural and human challenges of our time. A dialogue between Antiquity and the present, between founding myths and contemporary realities, at the heart of the Mediterranean.

Supported by the Princely Government, the Meetings are organized by the Monégasque Association for the Advancement of Knowledge of the Arts (AMCA), in partnership with the Oceanographic Institute of Monaco, the Audiovisual Institute of Monaco, and the Monaco National Commission for UNESCO.

Free admission, registration required.
