The FV 112/15 Group Collection is a blend of artistic materials representing the time, social movements, and lifestyle of young people in Slovenia in the 1980s. It documents a central part of Ljubljana’s subculture and the alternative youth movement through the work of an amateur theatre group called the FV 112/15 Theatre and through the activities of three alternative clubs. The group cultivated an ironic attitude toward socialism and deconstructed bourgeois stereotypes.
The founder of the Folk Dance House Movement was Béla Halmos. Halmos, as a musician, a folklorist, an instructor, an organizer and the leader of the Hungarian revival movement, supported the Hungarian folk culture and Dance House Movement. The Folk Dance House Archives started to function in 1999. The root of the Archives was the private collection of Béla Halmos, and it continuosly grew thanks to gifts and donations.
Fortepan is an extensive online collection of photos documenting the 20th century until 1990. All the photos fall under creative commons license. Started as a private non-profit initiative, it grew out of a core collection of 5,000 images, and it has been dynamically expanding as both institutions and private individuals have donated photos. Images are largely about scenes of life in Hungary, but there is a growing number of photos that were taken in other countries. Fortepan is the largest free-use digital photo collection covering, among other things, cultural opposition under communism in Eastern Europe. Underground music scenes, alternative theatre and film, grey zone cultural activities, and the democratic and populist opposition are all topics covered in the collection.
The ‘Fuck 89’ collection is an archive of Warsaw anarchistic movement from the last years of state socialism and the beginning of capitalism. It documents activities of groups such as A-Cykliści (A-Cyclists), Alternative Society Movement, Wolność i Pokój (Freedom and Peace), Intercity Anarchist Federation, and others.
From 1938 until 1978 (i.e. under different political regimes, namely those of Horthy, Rákosi, and Kádár), a unique summer festival of sorts (“nyaraltatás”) was held not far from Budapest on the shores of Lake Bánk (over the course of 40 years, more than 800 children took part in the festivals). It was organized by Eszter Leveleki in the spirit of the reform pedagogy movements of the1920s and 1930s. The festivals were a separate and liberal universe which was shaped by certain cultural (roleplaying) and collective practices. Accordingly, they ignored and implicitly challenged the dominant cultural-social norms. The tangible heritage of the festivals (e.g. various objects and items) has been preserved by the participants, especially by private collectors Ferenc Fábri and Ferenc Háber.
