Its goal is to build an international, poetic community of thought on Mount Kerkis overlooking the Aegean Sea, surrounded by the spiritual aura of Pythagoras.

Artists, writers, philosophers, filmmakers, architects and visionaries of all kinds are to enter into dialogue with each other in order to develop interdisciplinary project ideas together with the people of the small mountain town of Marathokampos.

KERKIS ECHO is intended as a lucid experimental laboratory, an aesthetic and intellectual testing ground. It follows in the tradition of legendary mountain collectives such as Monte Verita in Switzerland (1900-1920) and Black Mountain College in the USA (1933-1957). A condensation of intellectual, artistic voices to echo from the Kerkis back into the world.
