Google features Open Society Archives' exhibit entitled "1956-301-1989, Prehistory to the 1989 Fall of Communism of Hungary" on its Cultural Institute website starting today, as part of a series of exhibits commemorating the 25th anniversary of the Fall of the Iron Curtain. The exhibits were prepared by Czech, Slovak, Polish and Hungarian (OSA) institutions. The OSA exhibit will be featured on Google's home search page on Nov. 19.
The OSA exhibit, curated by Gwen Jones, is a compilation of photos, documents and video footage tracing the progression from Hungary's 1956 revolution to the fall of communism in 1989 with information about the historic events.
The goal of Google's Cultural Institute is to make world cultural treasures, archives, cultural heritage and other cultural materials available on the internet, democratizing access to the events of the past and preserving these valuable items for future generation.
