Metroplex 2022 – 2122 / Architectural Legacies

The presentation of the ‘Metroplex 2022 – 2122’ project will be held as part of the ‘Architectural Legacies’ conference on September 6 in the District, as part of the Kaleidoscope of Culture architecture week.

The project of the Novo kulturno naselje ‘Metroplex’ refers to the artist Dejan Ilić and the Japanese artist Akinori Oishi, who closely collaborate in shaping and spreading cultural and artistic consciousness among the citizens of Novi Sad.

By evolving the futuristic presentation of the future Cultural Centre in Novo Naselje, and the way of living in and around it, virtual templates will open the door of Japanese culture and art to the locals, and the other way round. The exchange of cultural and artistic heritage will take place in both directions and show the vision of development through the eyes of artists.

The artists and their vision agree that Japanese technology will be dominant for the entire course of civilisation in the next hundred years. Through the application of the AR (Augmentative Reality) technology on the construction site of the future building, the citizens of Novi Sad will have the opportunity to experience a different approach to cultural-artistic content, where works of art open the potential for new constructive ideas contributing the decentralisation of culture and art.

Partners of the Kaleidoscope of Culture 2022 are Erste Bank, IDEA, DDOR, A1 Srbija, and Heineken Srbija.
