Memories and the perceived history of spaces are the foundation of EMERGENCE. From shared experience to new creativity. Living Heritage/Reframing Memory, a project coordinated by Prague Quadrenniale with thick collaboration with seven cultural and arts organisations based in several European cities. Like it consists of several different workshops, performances, and events, this project explores local sites’ specifics, histories, and connections to locals. By doing so through the universal language of art and performance design/scenography.

After four years of work, supported by the Creative Europe Programme and in last year influenced by pandemics, we can present a newly published book called EMERGENCE. From shared experience to new creativity. Living Heritage/Reframing Memory, that is in the sense of open-source freely available to download here.
