The images and objects in the exhibition tell stories of sunken worlds.<\/p>\n

The loss of thousands of European settlements is one of the profound traumas and upheavals of the 20th and 21st centuries. The causes of depopulation and the abandonment of entire villages are manifold. They range from social, political, and demographic factors to natural disasters.<\/p>\n

\u201cAtlantis\u201d is a series of exhibitions that traces the traces of past places in Southeast Europe. At the DZM, it commemorates settlements where German or other minorities once lived\u2014culturally diverse villages and communities that no longer exist today. And with the places, their diversity also disappeared.<\/p>\n

\u201cAtlantis \u2013 Sunken Worlds\u201d tells the story of Lindenfeld and Ada Kaleh in Romania, Gakovo\/Gakowa and Kru\u0161evlje\/Kruschiwl in Serbia, Stari Tabor\/Alttabor and Novi Log\/Neulag in Slovenia, Zavr\u0161je\/Piemonte d’Istria in Croatia, and Derenk and Dolina in Hungary. Objects, stories, archive images, sound installations, and photographs by the photo artist Frank Gaudlitz bring them back to life.<\/p>\n

The exhibition was realized in collaboration with the Coordination Office for Central and Southeast Europe at the Museum of European Cultures in Berlin, as well as with scientists, museums, and research institutions in Romania, Serbia, Slovenia, Croatia, and Hungary.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
