In Latvia they have a special museum for those who would like to dive into the now not present world of the Soviet exotics. Every visitor has to wear Soviet Russian prisoners cloths and when enters is being humiliated by the staff dressed as Soviet army soldiers. They yell on and almost beat all the visitors, force them to do things, wear gas masks, run distances and many many more things to do. Hard times he experiences there until this guided tour is ended.

Doesn’t sound like much fun as a vacation outing, but I’m reminded of a comment Jeremy Deller makes in the documentary about his reenacted Battle of Orgreave, that historical wounds can’t be healed by an art project like his but it can create space in which people start talking about what happened to them in the past.
