The BSBSA (Belgrade Sofia Bucharest Street Art) project presents modern public art practices from Bulgaria, Serbia, and Romania with a clear mission: to boost the creation and circulation of European art around Balkan Peninsula. To achieve this, the BSBSA project brings artists from diverse backgrounds together. Collaborating on transformative art installations, they redefine public spaces in Bulgaria, Romania, and Serbia.
The project, co-funded by the Creative Europe programme of the European Union, aims to strengthen the capacity of European cultural and creative sectors, fostering international engagement. This will be accomplished through cultural exchange and mobility of artists’ works showcased in multidisciplinary public exhibitions spanning the three countries.
In essence, the BSBSA project leverages art to humanise public spaces in Bulgaria, Romania, and Serbia. Through artistic interventions, workshops, talks, guided tours, an urban art book, a street art map, and multidisciplinary exhibitions, the project collaborates with local communities, artists, and stakeholders to regenerate and promote public spaces.

- Carry out six artistic interventions to transform public spaces.
