Urban Fields

 

After many non coherent experiments, we’ve finally succeded to file our strategies of urban appropriation into a conceptually stronger container we’ve called URBAN FIELDS: it’s conceived as a common ground shared with our network of friends (including also students) coming from different creative disciplines. The principal mission is to explore the physical and social controversial condition of the contemporary metropolitan realm through spontaneous, instant and temporary appropriations of neglected public space. Urban Installations, performances, workshops, various experiments of communication and relational design (known also as “tactic urbanism”) will be documented at http://urbanfields.wordpress.com
