What you can do with the city

Use goat kids to take care of public gardens, plant little ivies all around the city, or provide a small map in order avoid CCTV cameras and advertisements: a bit of peace and quiet, please. Use your bike as a vase, the river as a sort of road for canoes, benches as beds. Or there’s the car park, a proper public amenity, which by night is transformed into a form of hospitality for vagrants. Alternatively, you wryly line your neighbour’s doorstep with a ping-pong net: in one way or another, how should I put it…? You meet with people.
The exhibition is like this all the way through, made up of small hypothetic projects by cheeky talents who weren’t given a sense of decency as children, and to whom the city seems like a coercive and dogmatic space. An exhibition of 99 acts, projects, hypotheses and stories: to realise all of them in every city would be a miracle.
