Hello World Global Art Projection on the Facade of the History Museum of Bosnia & Herzegovina, Sarajevo

Hello World – launched this past June as a large-scale international art project produced by the nonprofit TransCultural Exchange - is a demonstration of solidarity during the COVID-19 pandemic. On October 10, the public can view the project’s zoom launch, projected onto the façade of Sarajevo’s History Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina, including greetings from the Hello World artists working in Europe, Africa, Asia, the Americas and Australia, along with their highly diverse visual artworks, music, videos and dance pieces.

Why? Faced with the COVID-19 crisis, the need for social distancing, travel restrictions and reduced contact with others, TransCultural Exchange grew concerned about the isolation, loss and fear resulting from the pandemic’s decrease in our usual sources of solace – connecting with others, the arts and exchanges of all kinds. For more information, please contact the Director of the TransCultural Exchange, Art Professor Mary Sherman, or visit
