Long description:
Mobility in the art world is a great
chance to reflect, exchange, get engaged in a different
socio-cultural context, and to create points of connection. Although
it seems as necessarily accompanying the globalization process, it
bears many challenges and reflects existing inequalities. A strong
focus or the lack of it in countries' policies or mobility funds
opens a discussion about which geo-political regions are better
connected and why, which countries and professions could benefit
most, as well as an awareness of exclusion of the other part of the
world from that picture.
By
relaying on existing independent initiatives and mobility funds, the
aim of this
program is to share experiences and initiate a joint discussion in
Belgrade, trying to map key mobility challenges, difficulties and
opportunities. The mobility we have in mind is predominantly focused
on Balkan, EU, Maghreb countries, and well as overall Mediterranean
region.
The organizers will present a couple
of realized residencies and international mobility programs in the
past years, providing their context of work and experience, such as:
- Residencias de Creación TNS>BCN 2010-2014 (Barcelona, Spain, and Tunis, Tunisia)
- Ars Kozara art in nature laboratory
(Prijedor, Bosnia and Herzegovina) and
- Trans-Cultural Dialogues (Algiers,
Algeria).
