UNLISTED is an unconventional performance series organized by a team of young curators (Christina Kruise, Ana Letunic, and Monika Ponjavic) and Eighty Ten, an international arts organization. It will take place in Belgrade, Serbia from September 20-22. Its thesis is simple: A small change in awareness or perception can create a ripple effect, nudging the aesthetic and emotional life of a whole city in a new direction.

At UNLISTED’s center are three performances in three public, non-theatrical spaces, or “hubs”. These site-specific performances will be created collaboratively by separate teams; each team will include both Serbian and international artists. The performances will be both TRANSFORMATIVE and PARTICIPATORY. The artists will transform the spaces and enlist the help of the audience to do it, sparking a new awareness of each hub’s potential in the citizen-participants and, indirectly, in the mind of the entire city.
