"Theme and technique of the project dealing with basic issues of our inter-municipal merger," explains Dr. Jürgen Zieger. Because, according to the mayor Esslinger, who is also first is chairman of the Cultural Region Stuttgart, is one of the central tasks of the association is to be invited by the annual cultural projects residents of the Stuttgart region to discuss the question of how open-minded now a critical use of the terms home and identity is possible.
The project, developed by the curator Wiebke trunk together with the Executive Director of Cultural Region Stuttgart, Karin Hanika, and the member cities was, is based on the idea that photography is linked as a popular means of creating an image with the socio-politically sensitive home and identity.

This will be used to facilitate the study of the artistic works of the technique and the recorded aspects. Photographed homes, which does not mean the mere scanning the local familiar environment. Homes can be photographed and also just discovered, for example in specific representations of migration, war, immigration and foreign, of history and architecture, on travel images. Photographed homes show up on images of borders and territories of homesickness, language and spiritual home of landscapes, or should be analyzed in an accompanying book, the question of the visual culture of the homeland concept also on greeting postcards. "
