We use arts for transformation in the area of cultural and natural heritage interpretation. We wish to step out from the well-known practices and find new, engaging ways to generate meaningful dialogue with professionals and the wider public about pressing issues such as the protection or revitalization of our cultural heritage in Hungary and Europe wide, or the climate changes and the importance of our environment. Our highlighted initiative of this field was a Creative Europe project called Journey to the beginnings, that introduced prehistory through the eye of an interdisciplinary collaboration of archaeologists, performing artists and IT developers. The Our Shared Heritage – Vucedol Culture project continues to elaborate this subject with a focus on our shared heritage of the Croatian-Hungarian border region. Our ongoing Creative Europe project MUSE.ar aims to create a platform that will help cultural institutions to work with their collections in an innovative and meaningful way to co-create new digital narratives.
Culture and our cultural heritage are a set of unfinished, imperfect, ever-changing, self-affecting processes. This nature of it makes it attractive for me; it is shaping us every day, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, but we also actively contribute to its formation. PP Cult pillar projects and the people who work in them are active participants in these processes.
Journey to the Beginnings is a collaborative project involving prehistoric cultural heritage sites and museums, contemporary arts and new technologies to rediscover and promote the prehistoric cultural heritage of the ancient civilizations that lived along the river Danube.
MUSE.ar is an international project that connects cultural and creative sectors with the aim of bringing artists – and thus arts – closer to museum collections by trial a digital application. This tool will provide an opportunity for artists from different backgrounds to build their own narrative for museums and visitors, using a digital collection.
ECHO II is a European cultural project that aims to invite artists working in the fields of painting, sculpture, graphic design, fashion design, craftwork and mural to create original artworks inspired by the following selected local traditions:
