Show Notes
In 2025, a new initiative exploring cultural dialogues between Europe and the Middle East was launched, involving organizations from Italy, France, Croatia, the Netherlands and Armenia. Titled Cross-Looking, the project examines how contemporary visual artists can challenge inherited colonial frameworks and reimagine perceptions of the "Other." It brings together 22 young artists for residencies in Yerevan, Cairo, Istanbul, and Rome. In this special English-language podcast episode, we speak with the project’s initiator Andrea Savorani Neri about the initiative’s goals and his work in Armenia.
