Hands-On Urbanism Presented by: Hosted by The Centre for City Ecology with Urbanspace Gallery, Curated by Elke Krasny Starts: January 9, 2014 Ends: March 7, 2014 Website: www.urbanspacegallery.ca Email: info@urbanspacegallery.ca Phone:416-595-5900 Costs: Free This exhibition is devoted to a history of ideas of appropriating land in urban space, revealing potential initiatives by citizens to take action in crisis situations. The presentation is based upon a history of ideas about the politics of space. Urban development from below leads to an informal and self-organized production of city. Self-organization has always been both a reaction to and an incentive for urban planning. New alignments are forged in times of crises, austerity measures, and increasing spatial and social injustice. This different history of urban transformation and the city raises pressing questions about the responsibility of architects and planners and about how we use resources.
