„The way we were“ is a long term photographic project focusing upon the collection, archiving and other use of lay photographic, film and video creations of the second half of the 20th Century in Košice and the whole Eastern Slovakia region. This project is not afraid of overlapping with neighbouring countries, taking into account ethnic and national plurality and the suburban post-socialist past. Artistic and documentary use of the theme will be reflected in the scope of the special catalogue, multi-media exhibition and an internet site. ‚The way we were‘ is a symbiosis of the specialist view of historic amateur and professional creations of a nonartistic nature, with an amateur relationship to the past and family photographs. By involving a wide spectrum of the lay public, they want to warn of the value of their private archives which will help to protect part of our cultural heritage and perhaps also discover valuable archives of private citizens or various institutions. The project supports intercultural dialogue, civic participation and cooperation between artists and specialists with regional citizens and it interlinks various cultural circuits of the European Union.
