In autmn 2009l, the OMNIBUS embarked on a ten-week journey spanning twelve countries in south-eastern Europe, at the invitation of the Goethe Institute in Athens as well as the Goethe Institutes and local partners in Ljubljana, Zagreb, Sarajevo, Skopje, Sofia, Thessaloniki, Athens, Istanbul, Bucharest, Belgrade, Budapest, Bratislava, Vienna and Munich.
The OMNIBUS travelled through areas rich in history and cultural diversity. Stopping at each capital, OMNIBUS established forums for unbiased discussions exploring the issue of the relationship between politics and art. Together, we looked for answers on how to envision Europe, and what tools we will need to shape it.
As a key inspirational component of this journey, OMNIBUS hosted two conferences, one in Athens and the other one in Istanbul, accommodating participants from all over the world.
In Zagreb for example, the OMNIBUS met with a student movement, in Sarajevo it visited a multi-ethnic school, was part of the German Cultural Week in Skopje and the Biennales in Thessaloniki, Athens and Istanbul.
