A wide-ranging and detailed survey dedicated to the protagonists of the contemporary art scene in Eastern Europe. As the title suggests, 'History, Memory and Identity' are the principle "open questions" for many countries in Eastern Europe that have over the past 20 years seen their course in history change radically in the wake of the fall of the Berlin wall on 9th November 1989.
Filippo Maggia teaches History of Contemporary Photography and Design at the Istituto Europeo di Design in Turin. He collaborates with art journals both in Italy and abroad.
