FRIDAY 28 WORK SESSIONS - Share & contribute

WALKSHOP

WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Two projects are soon to be realised, they both deal with the use of public space, how it informed and influenced citizens in the past, what happens now and what can take place in the future.

Project initiators Institut for (X), Aarhus (DK) and Lunik, Bordeaux (FR) relate in different ways to existing public structures like city development and the educational system, insisting that many different citizens (including public servants, artists,students and more) should be involved in shaping their own moving (hi)stories.

One project is focused very locally, the other spreads its activities all over Europe. Both are interested in developing new formats of interaction and knowledge transmission as well as in challenging prevailing conditions for human and social development.

The session is an active walk in Verona during which the projects are introduced and participants are urged to give input to them.

WHO MIGHT BE INTERESTED?

Anyone who would like to hear about the two projects and give input and feedback as well as reflect on and discuss interaction and collaboration between public entities and citizens/artist groups.

WHAT SHOULD PARTICIPANTS EXPECT?

A walk in Verona.

WHO IS LEADING?

Christian Juul Wendell (Institut for (X), Aarhus, DK) and Marta Jonville (Lunik, Bordeaux, FR).
