As a consequence of the wars and political upheaval in South-Eastern Europe, cultural borders are becoming increasingly blurred and exchange relationships more diverse.
As a consequence of the wars and political upheaval in South-Eastern Europe, cultural borders are becoming increasingly blurred and exchange relationships more diverse. The lecture series addresses, in particular, voluntary/involuntary border crossers: The cultural and artistic nomads of the Balkans whose work is not based on their origins or cultural topographies. Using examples from social history, economics, politics, literature, art, film and popular culture, we will discuss concepts of a nomadic existence as ‹mobile› models of life and thought which contradict settled lifestyles and static conceptions of culture.
