Urbanisation Through Culture – Critical Strategies for Informal Urban Development / TALK (DE)

Urban development is increasingly shaped by informal processes and the influence of cultural and social projects that enhance urban space. Landscape planning interventions, art projects or temporary uses can spark decisive impulses for reinterpreting urban space and experiencing it as residents – this can be observed both internationally and in the Basel region. After a keynote speech by Christof Mayer (raumlaborberlin), Philippe Cabane, an independent consultant for urban strategies, will discuss the opportunities such projects offer with the speaker and regional representatives. In collaboration with IBA Basel, host: Judith Solt, chief editor of TEC21. Free admission
