The main intent of the festival is to show the survivorship and the
effects of the folk art and the tradition on the contemporary art in the
partner countries. Accordingly we will not organize a tradition-keeper or
folklore festival, but such a traveling contemporary art program series,
that based on the cultural traditions of partner countries, but reflects
the world today. First of all we want to include young artists in the
project, because we are interested to know what does the cultural identity

productivity.
