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).
