Really interesting people I dindn’t knew about: Marjetica Potrc and Ooze. And really nice reflection about community gardens as art with meaning to the people… berlinfarmlab: Υesterday I had a meeting with Marjetica Potrc. I invited her together with Ooze Architects, under the coordination of Matthias Rick from Raumlabor, to have a discussion with topic “Art in Use”. The discussion will take place in Bar Babette in Berlin on 23rd of January and it is organized by the Graduate School of the Udk. She told me that community gardens as a form of art have replaced the public sculptures of the past. People need art and need art that they understand. For instance, an abstract public sculpture has gradually lost meaning and became only decoration.Moreover the authorship becomes collaborative and this is linked to another important fact of today which is working together; we have reached complex issues that deamnd sharing of knowledge. “The world is being reorganized by the people themselves”, she said. We talked about the trend of urban farming and that Rem Koolhas turns his back on cities. She shared some nice links with me which I am happy to share with you: ‘Homage to Catalonya II’ - solidary economicsGilles Clement:The Third Landscape Two excerpts of Ekümenopolis (Imre Azem, 2011), a documentary about the explosive expansion of Istanbul:http://vimeo.com/28430328http://vimeo.com/16373087 For more you have to come to the talk.
