From 2015 to 2016, the artist-in-residence
programme “West Balkan Calling” took place in Belgrade, Cetinje,
Prishtina, Sarajevo, Skopje and Tirana as well as in Graz, Klagenfurt,
Krems, Linz and Vienna. A total of 12 artists visited the cities mentioned
above for a residency. During this time, they realised works of art and/or
were inspired to create new works, which will be presented in the exhibition
“responseABILITY”. In parallel to this, a 12-part poster series
will be published.
The observations and individual experiences made within the guest artists'
residencies form the starting point of the exhibition. They could check
their expectations, compare them with their impressions on site and put
them into relation to their own living environments. Moreover, the mutual
exchange opened up the possibility to compare perceptions of the different
cultural spaces.
