The Art of Urban Intervention

THE ART OF URBAN INTERVENTION - DIE KUNST DES URBANEN HANDELNS
con un testo di Antonio Brizioli su Isola Art Center e il Centro disperso.


Which role can or should art play in the context of urban transformation, and which role does it want to play? Who are the protagonists? How do they appropriate the urban space? Which power-relations define and delimit their practices?

This book takes a look at the strategies, ambivalences, and limits of emancipatory urban practices in 18 international contributions from the fields of art, activism, architecture, city planning, urban research and journalism. The contributing authors sketch out concrete examples of urban action between the poles of the discourse on topical issues such as participation, governmentality, gentrification, social movements, migration and empowerment.
