Leap into the City Chisinau, Sofia, Pristina, Sarajevo, Warsaw, Zagreb and Ljubljana Cultrual Positions, Poitical Conditions Seven Scenes from Europe

Around 15 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall and six years after the end of the war in Kosovo, Eastern Europeans still have astoundingly little understanding of the everyday life of their neighbors. Leap into the City counters this sad reality with intelligence from artists, theoreticians, journalists and other cultural actors, all of whom start from the conviction that art and culture form the vital center of a society. In essays and reportage, in literary texts and artistic contributions, they take positions on current issues, pose new questions, and so portray a subjective tableau of their cities, the cultural scenes, and the public realms.Babias, Marius is the author of 'Leap into the City Chisinau, Sofia, Pristina, Sarajevo, Warsaw, Zagreb and Ljubljana Cultrual Positions, Poitical Conditions Seven Scenes from Europe', published 2006 under ISBN 9783832177126 and ISBN 3832177124.
