Svaki kulturni događaj ostavlja trag u prostoru u kojem se odvija. Taj trag može otvoriti prostor za susret, novo znanje i drugačiji pogled, ali može i potisnuti odnose koji su u njemu već postojali. U parkovima se taj trag posebno jasno vidi, jer se u njima prepliću svakodnevni život grada, biljni i životinjski svet, navike, sećanja i različite potrebe njegovih stanovnika. Kultura koja ulazi u javni i zeleni prostor ne ulazi u prazninu. Ona preuzima odgovornost za ono što u tom prostoru menja i za ono što iza sebe ostavlja.
Parks4All je projekat koji je kroz obrazovne module, umetničke rezidencije i festivale u Srbiji i Mađarskoj istraživao kako kultura može da deluje u javnim i zelenim prostorima, poštujući njihove postojeće odnose, ritmove i život. Umetnici, organizatori, stručnjaci i lokalne zajednice ispitivali su parkove kao mesta stvaranja, učenja i susreta.
Završna konferencija, ne svodi ta iskustva na pregled projektnih rezultata, već ih vraća gradu i otvara za razgovor, preispitivanje i nova povezivanja.
Program se razvija kroz tri pitanja: Kome pripada grad? Može li festival promeniti mesto, a da ne naruši ono što ga čini živim? Može li umetnost promeniti način na koji vidimo prirodu?
Odgovori se neće tražiti samo za konferencijskim stolom. Nastajaće kroz susrete umetnika, biologa, arhitekata, organizatora festivala i publike, kroz posmatranje parkova, film, crtež, zvuk i muziku.
Od ekološkog projekta Mitra Subotića Sube i Gorana Vejvode The Dreambird do priča o umetnosti koja nastaje izvan ustaljenih institucija, konferencija ispituje šta kultura može da učini u vremenu ekološke i društvene nesigurnosti. Može li nas naučiti da pažljivije gledamo, da čujemo ono što obično ostaje u pozadini i da zajednički prostor ne doživljavamo kao površinu koju treba zauzeti?
Gradovi ne ostaju bez daha odjednom. Ostaju bez njega svaki put kada nestane drvo, kada javni prostor postane roba, a priroda kulisa za još jedan događaj. Kultura ne može sama rešiti ekološku krizu, ali može odgovornije delovati u prostoru. „Grad koji diše“ zato okuplja umetnike, organizatore, stručnjake i publiku da zajedno istražuju kulturne prakse koje poštuju prostor, prirodu i podržavaju život koji se u njemu već odvija.

A CITY THAT BREATHES
Culture, Nature and Shared Space
22–24 October 2026
Prometej, Novi Sad
Conference: A City That Breathes
You can find the full schedule HERE.
Every cultural event leaves a mark on the space in which it takes place. That mark can create room for encounters, new knowledge and different perspectives, but it can also disrupt relationships that already exist there. In parks, this impact is particularly visible, as they bring together the everyday life of the city, plant and animal life, habits, memories and the different needs of its residents. When culture enters public and green spaces, it does not enter a void. It takes responsibility for what it changes and for what it leaves behind.
Parks4All is a project that, through educational modules, artist residencies and festivals in Serbia and Hungary, has explored how culture can engage with public and green spaces while respecting the relationships, rhythms and life already present within them. Artists, organisers, experts and local communities have explored parks as places of creation, learning and encounter.
The final conference does not simply present these experiences as a review of project results. Instead, it brings them back to the city, opening them up to conversation, reflection and new connections.
The programme develops around three questions: Who does the city belong to? Can a festival change a place without disrupting what makes it alive? Can art change the way we see nature?
The answers will not be sought only around the conference table. They will emerge through encounters between artists, biologists, architects, festival organisers and audiences, and through observing parks, film, drawing, sound and music.
From the reconstruction of Mitar Subotić and Goran Vejvoda's ecological project, to stories of art created outside established institutions, the conference explores what culture can do in a time of ecological and social uncertainty. Can it teach us to look more carefully, to hear what usually remains in the background, and to see shared space as something other than a surface to be occupied?
Cities do not lose their breath all at once. They lose it each time a tree disappears, each time public space becomes a commodity, and each time nature becomes the backdrop for yet another event. Culture cannot solve the ecological crisis on its own, but it can act more responsibly within the spaces it inhabits. A City That Breathes therefore brings together artists, organisers, experts and audiences to explore cultural practices that respect space and nature, and support the life already unfolding within them.
