Memory of a City_ Workshop project
September 13, 2011The project explores the memory and the cultural heritage of the City of Belgrade that are necessary for concrete policies and urban regeneration projects, and strives to identify different ways to activate the memory in urban regeneration and city identity formation, ranging from public policies to different practices in the field of art/culture.
The project is based on the premise that collective memory enables citizens to identify with history, as well as with the tangible and intangible heritage of their city, and that collective memory plays a defining role for the identity of a city, enhances cohesion within the community and incites citizens’ participation in the development of the city.
The workshop was a part of the International Symposium Memory of The City - Policies and Practices of the Memory Preservation and Integration in the City’s Development - in cooperation with artists Dušica Dražić and Milorad Mladenović.
