Corridor X In Belgrade

First of the series of exhibitions about Corridor X was held in Cultural Center Grad in Belgrade. Around 250 people saw exhibition at opening and party lasted till 2 am next day (all credits for party go to Samo Sloga Sound System). Around 20 different medias covered the event and daily paper Politika wrote really nice review of exhibition. But more than anything else, it was so great to see so many friends at one place. Thank you all. You made my heart dance.


This is a documentary photo essay about life connected with Corridor X (10).

The ten Pan-European transport corridors were defined at the second Pan-European transport Conference in Crete, March 1994, as routes in Central and Eastern Europe that required major investment over the next ten to fifteen years. Additions were made at the third conference in Helsinki in 1997. Therefore, these corridors are sometimes referred to as the “Crete corridors” or “Helsinki corridors”, regardless of their geographical locations. The tenth corridor was proposed after the end of hostilities between the states of the former Yugoslavia.

After the wars in ex-Yugoslavia, the economy, transport of people and goods started to flow through this corridor finally bringing together South-East with Central and West Europe. This corridor is today the heart beat for the Balkans and the rest of Europe. It is one of the most important infrastructures in South Europe and one of the most multi-ethnic places in the region, where every day thousands of cars, trucks and buses go from East to West and vice versa.

This is a story about following one line and photographer can find on that road. What he found he photographed.
