CAFÉ EUROPA - BOSNIA GENERATION / April 30th in The White Synagogue in Sejny/ The idea of a wandering artistic and literary café came in response to the need to create a forum for discussion and cooperation between creative writers and artists, who met for the first time during the war in the former Yugoslavia. The founders of Café Europa believed the tragedy of the bloody disintegration of the multicultural community, symbolized later by Bosnia, announced the beginning of a crisis likely to spread to other borderland cities and regions. They wrote and worked on the topic, participated in public debates and social actions. During their numerous meetings of Café Europa (Amsterdam, Stockholm, Krakow, Sejny, Poznan, Bucharest, Iowa, Warsaw, Barcelona, Zaragoza, New York, Sarajevo), they expanded the scope of the exchange of ideas and creative cooperation and involved local writers and artists, as well as initiated debates in the media. And although, sometimes, the theme of these meetings were various urgent problems of our modern times, an important point of reference for them has always been the generational experience of the tragedy of Bosnia. Therefore, the group started to be referred to as the Bosnia Generation. Our meeting will be attended by: Mileta Prodanović (Belgrade), Magda Cârneci (Bucharest), Peter Jukes (London), Chris Keulemans (Amsterdam), Nino Žalica (Amsterdam), Rolandas Rastauskas (Vilnius), Eugenijus Ališanka (Vilnius), Christopher Merrill (Iowa), and Zbigniew Machej (Cieszyn). Special guests: Erica Johnson Debeljak (Ljubljana) and Lukas Debeljak (Ljubljana). Music: HoTS Jazz Quartet / Harmony of The Spheres Hosted by: Krzysztof Czyżewski.
