All images listed on this page can be used free of charge for reporting on the exhibition A BREATH OF FRESH AIR IN OBERZEIRING quoting the corresponding image credits.
The exhibition shows the results of the four-year collaboration of "Human Cities" for the project "SMOTIES - Small and remote places". Ten small, remote European places affected by a strong rural exodus were selected for the project. The selection criterion was their special significance as guardians of material and immaterial culture, which would run the risk of being undervalued, unconsolidated or passed on if lost - in other words, of being lost forever. The aim is to enhance the remote areas through joint cultural and creative activities with the residents and to develop them into contemporary places worth living in.

The commitment of some so-called "local heroes" and numerous associations that actively endeavour to strengthen the community was also convincing.
