“Shelters of Babylon” is the central theme of this year's exhibition and KIBLIX festival 2017. We will be focusing our attention beyond the mere technological, commercial and economic horizon, to scrutinize artistic, cultural, psychological and philosophical aspects of modern migration, borders, communication, tolerance and other concerns related to the progress and development of modern-day society, which are becoming increasingly integrated in the core issue of internationalizing global movement on the level of all humankind.

Starting on 9 November 2017, ACE KIBLA host, in collaboration with international and local partners, an exciting and comprehensive confrontation between art and reality through the prism of contemporary (and historic) “shelters of Babylon”.  A consideration about the essence of future world migration issues created by human migration movements is the starting point for a process of reflection about ourselves, about our weaknesses, but also about our strengths – in short, about all those things that “make us human”.
