FESTIVAL/ARTISTS

Festival

How to combine embroidery with belly dance? What connections are there between the  world's reggae legend and an orchestra of punk mandolinists? Is it possible to put together an American pioneer of the ambient and a producer of impressive visuals with Serbian avant-garde artists who make their art from “discarded scrapes”? What does cabaret country-punk have in common with fairytale-like combinations of jazz and electronic music?

Or maybe there's no point in searching for fake tracks and traces? Maybe there's no use explaining and theorizing?

Clashes. Surprises. Amazements.

The festival of world cultures is a great celebration of diversity – both cultural and artistic, a celebration of merging influences and forms, a joy of encounters of music, visual arts and performers from all around the world with social activists from Poland. Boundless and unlimited flow of multicolourfulness and variety.

We don't want to show intercultural dialogue as a concept with its beginning and end – but as a multiform of expressions in its fluctuation and boundlessness. We want to to prove that each of these forms is in fact a part of the same story, in which we all live.

The artists of the 4. Window onto the World Festival are: Baba Zula, DJ Spooky, Ijahman Levi, IQ 48, Škart, Municipale Balcanica, Hypnotix, Mitch&Mitch, Kammerflimmer Kollektief and more...
