Introduction
The Onassis Stegi, in support of the free movement of people, ideas, and culture, invites us to imagine our common future in an open world beyond borders, beyond racial and gender restrictions.
“Movement” explores human mobility in the Mediterranean and beyond, from the interwar period to the present (1920-2020), through a series of lectures, concerts, film screenings, and a digital platform for archival and live material that will be simulcast throughout the festival.
From 1920 on, wars, colonialism, deteriorating economic conditions in pursuit of a better future, the acceleration of technological change, and environmental disasters have played a decisive role in the mass movement of people.
The phenomenon of human mobility, which is as old as humanity itself, leads us to a conclusion: Human life cannot be detached from the freedom of movement, which is an indispensible precondition for the free and necessary exercise of humanity’s creative and productive capacity.
