ACTOPOLIS

ARCUB - Centre for Cultural Projects of the Municipality of Bucharest
Lipscani nr. 84 – 90
București 030037
Romania

The Goethe-Institut and the Bucharest City Hall represented by ARCUB – the Centre for Cultural Projects of the Municipality of Bucharest invite you to the opening of the exhibition “ACTOPOLIS | The Art of Action”.

All over the world, cities are facing challenges. How can we make a success out of the endeavour to develop and keep the urban space as a common space for society, even during times when it is capitalized and privatized? What is the part played by art, culture, architecture, self-organized action and activism?

During the past few years, artists, architects, philosophers, urbanists and activists from seven different European cities tackled these aspects within the project ACTOPOLIS | The Art of Action. The exhibition sets forth examples of projects from Ankara/Mardin, Athens, Bucharest, Belgrade, Oberhausen, Sarajevo and Zagreb. The materials coming from the over 45 individual projects make up a substantial portfolio of possibilities for transforming and improving the cities we live in. The exhibition (design NODE, Berlin – Oslo and SSW Architekten, Berlin) offers inspiration and concrete impulses to act.

In Romania, the project “Bucharest South. Build your own city!” will be presented at the Goethe-Institut, str. Tudor Arghezi 8-10, Bucharest, between April 6 to 26

Opening: Wednesday, 5th April, 6:30 pm
Exhibition Duration: 6th – 26th April
