What’s the cultural pulse of Europe? From Paris to Milan, we asked five rising stars to tell us how their cities influence their work—and reflect the Continent today.

From April 2009

See our slideshow of Europe’s Hottest New Artists.

Just as the fast-paced life of Manhattan has a staring role in the films of Woody Allen, and the eccentric streets of Baltimore are John Water’s muse, artists everywhere are influenced by the places they live.

And Europe’s hottest tastemakers are no exception. See how a thriving neighborhood in Barcelona has inspired Javier Calvo’s novels, how a London chef has incorporated her diverse neighborhood into her cooking, and how the vibrant people of Milan have played their part in the life of a ballet dancer.
