The exhibition was one of the largest attended in a long time, in a place which is still suffering from its recent bloody wars. many people were unaware of INDYMEDIA, where there is still no IMC node in Bosnia, Croatia, Serbia, Srpski Republic. some interest was shown in trying to set one up.

EKO GRAD BANJA LUKA- shows map and model of city, red dots are main nodes in EKO PARADE ( last image) which was a coulourful fun wander throught the city giving out flyers (small enough to fit in your hand, mostly in serbian).

as part of EKO PARADE, a dead 12 foot branch of a tree was used to hang a giant EKO flag, which was the main visual prop, along with some orange stuff- this flag was used as banner for exhibition and was hung on main door to gallery
