CALL SUMMARY:
Then, Now and Always is a research project proposal developed by the Czech Technical University. It explores the dynamic processes and changing roles of small museums for societies, communities and local interest groups. Recently, museums and places of memory have increasingly become centers of interaction and communication. Through documenting them, this project seeks to map current models of holistic placemaking and better understand local processes of preserving, telling, and sharing local history and cultural stories.
In this project, museums are understood as places where a common identity is created and local customs are given value, purpose, inspiration, and historical dimensions. It uses the notion of communities of practice and defines them as groups of people who “share an interest, fear or a passion for something. They learn from each other, communicate regularly, share experiences, exchange information, skills and create common goals.” These community activities are a key to creating long-term heritage revitalization processes.
Reflecting this project, the “Then, Now and Always” call seeks contributions from artists, art historians, cultural theorists, anthropologists and more. It will result in publications with Intellect Books and UCL Press. The call forms part of the overall conference initiative:
