Urban artistic practices of intervention in everyday life

The research focuses on ephemeral urban artistic practices. We are interested in observing the actions practiced in cities which, despite being quite different, share a similar sociocultural context. Artistic activities, in the public space, are a worldwide phenomenon and demonstrate a social responsibility of the artist, common in urban centres. The contemporary artist demonstrates a certain urgency to intervene in his context and to find breaches that allow him to break the continuous flows of daily life in a creative, procedural and experimental way. Based on the Berlin case study, we propose to make a cut of the new creative processes of contemporary art, in which the city is used as a central element. The space of collective use becomes a place of subjectivity production and also of social interaction, through the new urban artistic practices.
