Manifesta itself is a recurring event, that changes location every two years. In 2022 the fourteenth edition it takes place in Prishtina, Kosova with the title: “it matters what worlds world worlds: how to tell stories otherwise”.
In general, the European Nomadic Biennial rethinks the relation between culture and civic society. Its artistic programme takes up the challenge of exploring collective storytelling. This year, Manifesta 14 aims to support the citizens of Kosovo in their ambition to reclaim public space and to rewrite the future of their capital – as an open-minded metropolis in the Balkans and in Europe.

The Carpet
As an alternative idea as a meeting place in the art world, Vesselina Sarieva and and Luchezar Boyadjiev (Luçezar Bojadijeviç) bring to light the poetic possibilities of the carpet as a space of equality that invites all. “The Carpet” is a curatorial concept for “meeting place” in opposition to the traditional art institution or art settlement – gallery, museum, exhibition, fair and others. “The Carpet” is an experiment and a poetic proposal for the future of the art world. It is seeing as a universal place to be equal, to meet artists, curators, visitors, collectors, to provide and receive education, to exchange and build relationships, to give future for art and ideas.

Radio Prishtina was there
“Prishtina is Everywhere” begins with an episode about radio. The Lawyer, activist and publicist Diana Malaj based in the Albanian City of Kamza presents the power of the medium to produce meaningful collective experiences even under the conditions of authoritarian regimes.
In conversation with Diana Malaj you will hear Lushi, an anthropologist and artist, living in Kukës, a small city in the northeast of Albania, talking about his childhood memories that were formed through listening. A process in which Radio Prishtina played a genuine part forming almost a kind of counter history, and the memory of a generation and the city of Kukës itself.
