Since founding Бартcелона концепт in 2014, I have conceived every project as inherently collaborative, open to international dialogue while deeply rooted in local cultural ecosystems.
The platforms I have created; Belgrade Photo Month (2016), BPM Book Week (2022), and the Catalan Film Festival in Belgrade and Sarajevo (2021), were built from the outset as bridges between territories, institutions, and artistic communities.
Collaboration, for me, is not an accessory element of programming, it is the structural core.
Over the years, I have developed partnerships with international cultural institutes, foundations, embassies, and festivals across Europe and beyond. These collaborations have enabled:
- Co-produced exhibitions and events
- Artist exchanges and mobility programs
- International visibility for local artists
- Sustainable financial and institutional support
- Long-term strategic alliances between festivals
Institutional Collaborations
Among the institutions and cultural bodies I have worked with are:
Österreichisches Kulturforum
Institut Ramon Llull
Finnish Cultural Foundation
Institut Français
Goethe-Institut
Hungaricum College
Istituto Italiano di Cultura

As well as numerous embassies including Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Greece, Israel, Mexico, the Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Switzerland, and Ukraine.
Festival & Platform Partnerships
I have also collaborated with international festivals and platforms such as:
Photonic Moments – Month of Photography
Istanbul Photo Book Festival

Panoramic Festival
Image Amman Festival
Demofest
Budapest Photo Festival

Helsinki Photo Festival
Cracow Fashion Week

These collaborations are not extraordinary in themselves, but building and sustaining them requires trust, consistency, negotiation skills, and long-term cultural vision.
