The conception of the Month of Photography 2014 has been informed by the Bratislava organizers and adjusted to the suggestion of the EMOP: examining the problematical questions of the remembrance of history. Therefore the events were organized around archives scaning the alternatives of the usage and re-interpretation of the historical documents (written, objective, musical) reflected in the creations of contemporary photography. In the programme, organized by the Month of Photography 2014, was a number of monumental collective exhibitions – in connection with the intended themes - , smaller scaled exhibitions – fitting to the topic and also conversations, and accompanying programs in purpose to help the intensification of the interpretation.
