86 heritage works by Guillaume Bottazzi to be discovered throughout France during the 42nd European Heritage Days 2025
2025 is the year of mental health, and visual artist Guillaume Bottazzi is inviting us on a gigantic artistic journey with 86 heritage works of art to be discovered all over France as part of the 42nd European Heritage Days. Under the aegis of the European Union, the Ministry of Labour, Health, Solidarity and the Family has designated mental health as a ‘Major National Cause in 2025’. Guillaume Bottazzi is recognised as a pioneer in neuroaesthetics, which brings neurobiology and art into our environment to help improve our mental health and reduce social tensions. Neuroscience has proved that the works of this artist do us good, and the Health Organisation has confirmed that art can help our mental health. Neuroaesthetics is gaining considerable ground in our environment, and the public is invited to immerse themselves in the poetic world of the artist and measure the effects of this new trend that is now part of our daily lives. The aim is to produce chemical effects on us that help our mental health. Neuroaesthetics is making considerable inroads into our environment, and the public are invited to immerse themselves in the artist’s poetic universe and measure the effects of this new trend that is now part of our daily lives. The aim is to produce chemical effects on us that help our mental health. These heritage works, anchored in our daily lives, reduce our anxiety and feelings of loneliness. In particular, they produce dopamine, serotonin and oxytocin. They make us happier and stronger, more elegant and healthier. They reduce the effects of depression, promote social cohesion and help us take a step back from things. They comfort us, make it easier to make spaces our own and reduce social tensions. They contribute to peace and love in the world !
Fuelled by thousands of publications by neuroscientists, the effects of these sensory experiences were confirmed by the World Health Organisation in 2019.
