DEALING WITH THE PAST

Presentation & Critical Debate with Raycho Stanev

Starting point for discussion is the interactive installations about the memories of Socialism time:
• Stories for 1968 – the tipping point for East Europe
• Visual Propaganda and how it use to work

• The Great Excursion – project about bulgarian Turks hundreds of thousands of who were expelled from Bulgaria in 1989. A hidden chapter of European history, almost unknown in West Europe, it is a reminder of what happens when DNA, rather than our shared humanity, is the focus of attention.
