Frontiera II
Frontiera II is a cross-many-borders collaborative arts event between Eastern and Western European Artists. Its main objective is the exchange of differences as a basis for inspiration and enrichment. This will be achieved through the means of celebrating the diversities and embracing the enthusiasm for exchange of ideas and conversation. Our long-term aim is to extend and continue the project over the whole of Europe, seeking to provide an ongoing stage for a cross-cultural exchange. This, we feel is much needed by our generation of emerging artists, who were born with the word pluralistic meaning part of life.
