IMAGINATION MAKES A CITY

When a city becomes a megalopolis, when “gated communities” nibble away at public areas and when the feeling of insecurity no longer corresponds to the reality of the neighbourhoods, what is the impact of public cultural policies on a territory?

Javier Brun Spain Fundación Interarts

Born in 1960, Javier Brun is : vice-president of the Interarts agecy, director of the performing arts center of Aragón, member of the executive committee of " On the move "... www.interarts.net

The world is undergoing an irreversible process of urbanisation. In Europe, in 2030, this will concern 74% of the population. The figure rises to 82% in Latin America. Manuel Castells has even announced the end of cities, to be replaced by megalopolises “which absorb an ever-increasing proportion of the urban population”.

This often results in fragmentation, a discontinuous city, where people “escape” to zones protected by private guards, the so-called gated communities, once the public thoroughfares have been closed and privatised. It is there that the high society and middle classes live as prisoners in their own homes, while the working classes are faced with insecurity on a daily basis.

Even in old Europe, where the city has long had its own solid and distinct characteristics, we can see

how the development of these metropolitan environments limits the collective areas to educational establishments and road networks.

The new settlements springing up around the European metropolises have very few meeting places.

They consist of detached and semi-detached houses or blocks of flats. They have no centre to speak of, other than a minimal “downtown” area – a dozen local shops and offices close to the suburban train station.

At the same time, leisure activities which used to take place in the street have moved to the modern, characterless shopping malls, veritable non-places to paraphrase Augé.

Public space? This concept is becoming more and more vague and can be understood in several ways.

García Canclini reminds us how in the Mexican ballrooms – places where thousands of people meet for a small charge – “we experience the ambiguity of participating in a public area with almost private forms of recognition.”

Bauman explains: “[…] we do not refer to public areas in general, but to those which refute both the modern ambition of erasing differences from the map and the post-modern trend which causes the fossilisation of these differences through the separation and isolation of one person from another.”

Urban or dead. Globalisation has increased the weight of the city. In response to this situation, theorists such as Jordi Borja have pleaded the development of a new concept. Human rights “of the fourth generation: the Rights of the City-Dweller”. In the

Recovering urban areas to give them a meaning is one of the main challenges facing the public authorities or collective actions in the field of culture.

field of culture, there would be the Rights to Public Areas and to Monumentality.

Initially, towns were places of refuge and freedom. Anyone who came to a town in the Middle Ages and lived there for at least one year won his freedom and no longer belonged to the lords, the masters of the land that he worked. Today this situation has changed radically, almost to the point that it has been reversed.

In this new configuration, what role should local cultural policies play? They can no longer consist of simply democratising culture. There are new objectives, including the expansion of public areas and intercultural dialogue.

Recovering urban areas to give them a meaning is one of the main challenges facing the public authorities or collective actions in the field of culture.

Cultural authorities, elected members and artists are aware of the importance of symbolism in the building of collective imaginations. Art and cultural management are the main tools for changing the imaginations of a city. It is through culture that we can and must combat the unwholesome consequences of an often mistaken and exaggerated perception of insecurity.

Martín Barbero shows that the “maps of fear” do not correspond to the reality of urban violence. For example, the district of El Raval, in Barcelona, the headquarters of several new and important cultural

institutions1, is perceived as being an area typified by conflict and marginality.

Common belief holds that 34% of offences in the city are committed in this district, whereas police data show that the figure is a mere 4%. The presence of cultural events in the zone (Dies de Dansa, etc.) allows us to come closer to this reality without fear, taming the quarter for the inhabitants.

One element which could be used as a roadmap for urban policies and which provides useful references in this field is the Agenda 21 for culture, launched by United Cities and Local Governments.

It contains the advice and commitments of the signatory cities which can serve as a guideline for approaching these objectives in the right way.

DIALOGUE-CONTROVERSY VERSUS “REALPEOPLISATION” Sweet-talking the town by creating stories drawn from reality Should artists seduce inhabitants by painting a picture of them as seen from the outside at the risk of producing a distorted work of fiction, or should they follow their intuition and produce a free “interpretation”? Stéphane Bonnard from the company KompleXKapharnaüM feels that this is a fundamental essential question that we should ask ourselves, as the city is simultaneously the source, site and target of these creations.

Stéphane Bonnard France Artist

Stéphane Bonnard is a member of the KompleXKapharnaüM collective.

Created in 1995, this collective creates urban interventions which are performed at the very limit between actors and spectators. Their “in situ” work process primarily involves exchanges with the people who use the performance sites and makes use of all types of media, in particular video projections. www.komplex-kapharnaum.net

Throwing the net, turning on the charm in the hope of bringing these silhouettes together to share an experience, in this part of town which will never again be quite the same.

The city evokes passion in me. For this concentration of humanity, this collection of faces, of emotions constantly shared in a daily promiscuity, a grotesque situation, this strange need to live close to one another, it moves me.

And exasperates me when it becomes too much, when in a lassitude of silhouettes in the urban flow, I feel indifference dawning, denial, contempt, fear or hatred of others.

Forging an artistic act in a city means slipping into this no-man’s land between the desire to be together and the vague exasperation with others; it means finding the means of stopping the flow, taking a

break: remembering who we live with and where.

Each area of the city is codified, signified. The people who bring it to life are not there by chance. There are those who live there, those who use it, the trader, the passer-by, all of them loosely linked.

The artist must cunningly invent a way of making everyone meet: throwing the net, turning on the charm in the hope of bringing these silhouettes together to share an experience, in this part of town which will never again be quite the same. Some see a form of populism in this necessary seduction of a volatile audience, where the demand for popular, shared art is primordial.

“Come and see your neighbour, come and listen to the story of the place where your uncle used to work…”

To provoke this unexpected event capable of attracting the towns attention, if only for a moment, we at KompleXKapharnaüM create our stories by drawing on the reality of the place in which we will perform. Our sets transform the architecture by means of images taken from the area, video diaries recorded here and there on a whim, our encounters.

While we try our hands at singular forms of performance, a language which we hope is contemporary, the video diaries are our chat-up line, so to say: they are a familiar doorway for audiences entering our universe. “Come and see your neighbour, come and listen to the story of the place where your uncle used to work…” After that, we have to have something to say in this place to these people we have had the audacity to call on (in the name of what?).

Today, “real people” attract attention from all sides: from advertising to politics, TV, radio, talk-shows and so on, the “realpeoplocracy” rules. Rather than the role of mouthpiece (apostle) of the Inhabitant’s word, almost biblical in nature, we prefer the role of “dialoger-controversist”. Based on what we have felt, the feelings inspired by the place, we endeavour to forge a word relating to this reality.

But we must remain cautious: starting with the words of an author, a language which we attempt to assert and which defines our framework of intervention, we may sometimes be tempted to adapt the identity of a place to this framework, whatever the cost. Even if it means caricaturising it and squeezing it into the mould.

In the production process of Playrec, the most recent creation of KompleXKapharnaüM which uses the history of an emblematic place in a town, we set up a guardrail: before the performance, the fifteen actors meet up for a week. We sift through the material collected during the residence: interviews, archive images, newspapers, bills, adverts, etc. We share and talk about this material, rooted in a different era, we search for what it leads us to and how to use it: consumerist euphoria in the England of the 1960s, the red Poland of the 1950s or the glorious epoch of the electricity in France...

On the evening of the show, a type of informal dialogue appears between this re-interpretation of the history of a place which we permit ourselves and the memories of the audience, either experienced or as told by others, tainted by nostalgia, mythology or even bitterness.

Finding the balance between an artist’s language, a company’s language, and the physical reality of a place has been at the very heart of our work for ten years...

Even if we are only now beginning to understand how to formulate it. Creation in a town is above all a question of intuition.

SPACES AND NEW TENDENCIES IN STREET ARTS The experience of the Oerol festival Creating in a place, with the place and for the place. That is the commitment of the Oerol festival on the island of Terschelling in the Netherlands. Joop Mulder, the festival’s artistic director, is convinced that the future of street arts lies in site-specific, multidisciplinary and multicultural artistic creation.

Joop Mulder Netherlands

Founder and artistic director of the “Terschellings Oerol Festival” on the island of Terschelling, Netherlands.

“Terschellings Oerol Festival” plays host to national and international theatre artists, musicians and visual artists and boasts more than sixty temporary stages: beaches, woods, dunes, polders, barns… www.oerol.nl

At the end of the seventies, street theatre became more and more popular. The Godfather of festivals in Europe was the Festival of Fools in Amsterdam.

In 1982, the island of Terschelling hosted its first small street festival, called Oerol. The inhabitants of the island were curious, but also somewhat sceptical.

Initially, their support was far from overwhelming, but the inhabitants gave the festival a chance to develop and the use of the island as a stage played an important role in allaying the islanders’ doubts.

The island of Terschelling, one of the Frisian Islands off the northern coast of Holland, became the annual ‘stage’ for the site-specific arts festival Terschellings Oerol.

An otherwise peaceful 15-mile strip of sand dunes and meadows, dotted with several small, typical

Dutch villages undergoes a complete metamorphosis in the third week of June. For 10 days, it is transformed by the mayhem and merriment of some 200 different acts. Many open air spaces in the beautiful landscape of the island are used by national and international theatre and music groups to create installations, site-specific performances and landscape arts, while indoor locations, such as old farmhouses and sheds, become unusual galleries and theatres.

The island of Terschelling has a historical landscape that is shaped by dunes and dikes, man-made pine woods, polders and dwellings. Mankind has greatly influenced the landscape and the shaping of it.

Memories within the landscape are one of the sources of inspiration for the protagonists, while the history

and old folk tales of the island can also be seen in several performances.

When organising a site-specific festival, it is of great importance to use the social surroundings as well as the physical environment of the place. Over the years, Terschellings Oerol has developed great expertise in site-specific theatre. Major national and international companies have performed extraordinary projects on the broad beach, among the dunes or in the forests.

culture which is nowadays encouraged by the new economic orientations of the different city-councils.

Their main aim is to attract as many people as possible, as this is good for the shops, good for the restaurants and good for the city’s economy.

But they forget one thing. It is nothing more than a current trend. Tomorrow, something entirely different might be on the agenda and the discipline of street arts will be impoverished and stripped bare by current commercial policies.

IT'S ALL VERY CLEVER BUT YOU CAN'T DO IT HERE Disturbing the perception and rules of public areas

One unforeseen benefit may well be a resurgence in street-based performance art - possibly the most innovative and immediate of contemporary art forms.

a reflection of the non-conformist way in which he intends to look at public areas: through his actions, he aims to perturb our usual way of thinking.

Richard Dedomenici

Before I begin, I would just like to congratulate France on losing the 2012 Olympics.

United Kingdom Artist (performer)

“His work comes face-to-face with public areas (often in the form of interventionism), disturbing the normal perception of public space and the rules that govern it, and he questions ownership of public areas and authority in general.” “Involved in human right issues”, Richard Dedomenici “finds ways of ‘getting his message’ across through humour and public confrontation outside of ‘normal’ performance spaces.”

(Nikki Milican, director of the National Review of Live Art, Glasgow, Scotland) www.dedomenici.co.uk

I am not trying to be rude.

I genuinely think you got the better end of the deal.

You see, in the past two years the cost of the London Olympic Games has quadrupled to £9.3bn. As a result, billions of pounds of lottery funding have been raided and Arts Council England grants have, without warning, been slashed by thirty-five percent.

The infrastructure of support for artists to create and exhibit work in the UK is quickly being eroded, as funding bodies, galleries and venues face a major financial crunch.

But it’s not all doom and gloom.

After graduation in 2001 I made a name for myself blowing up balloons in public telephone boxes. As an asthmatic smoker, the 120 minute-long performance – entitled Party of One – represented a feat of endurance; to live-art promoters it was a low-cost, high-visibility work, guaranteed to attract attention.

So it was that I repeated the Party of One around the UK until my lung capacity became very good. Also, the endless repetition gave me a rare insight into its effect on passers-by: Many did not notice the performance and of those who did notice, some pretended not to. Some tried to pretend not to notice, but failed. Some stopped and watched, others watched and laughed. Some people would bang on the window and ask what I was doing and why, and others got so angry, that they would open the door, spilling balloons down the street, and, in doing so, greatly increasing the duration of the piece.

Subsequent performances include sitting with a sign reading ‘Lazy Student Too Apathetic To Get A Job Please Give Generously’; initiating a Pedestrian

If we are to believe that art can change the world for the better, then we must also assume that it has the capacity to make things worse

Congestion Charging zone in Edinburgh; climbing into a suitcase outside Helsinki Railway Station; and wandering around Chicago with a plastic bag on my head and my hands tethered behind my back with a nylon cable-tie. The latter performance referenced the US military’s method of choice for detaining enemy combatants. Public reaction to my performance was considerable, people variously applauding and swearing at me. Police intervention was also swift, although I managed to talk my way out of arrest.

48 hours after the Chicago performance the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal broke internationally.

Within a fortnight US forces had outlawed the use of hooding in Iraq. I claimed this as evidence of the shamanistic properties of performance art.

To expand on this premise, I theorise that artists possess an instinctive foresight that can manifest itself through performance before it can be expressed in words. Thus artists are able to predict the future, but only in ways difficult to interpret until after the case. To quote Art Spiegelman, ‘It's hard to be an artist who's consistently Seconds Ahead of His Time’.

If we are to believe that art can change the world for the better, then we must also assume that it has the capacity to make things worse. A case in point was

when I was living in a domestic nuclear bomb shelter I’d installed in London’s Great Eastern Hotel. The performance coincided with the London Bombings, thus on 7th July 2005 I was evacuated from my bomb shelter, an incident that lent an unwanted topicality to the work.

I must admit to feeling quite guilty about that.

I also began to worry that I was putting less and less into my performances, that I was becoming quite lazy as an artist. By conventional standards few of my street interventions even qualified as ‘performance’, often just involving stillness on my part, and, even then, not so still that it became an effort. I couldn’t even be bothered to maintain a theatrical fourth wall.

My work was in danger of being antidisciplinary, rather than interdisciplinary.

The cumulative effects of lots of tiny anomalies can bring about massive discord.

By 2012, the uncertainty generated from all the British street art taking place will hopefully give rise to possibility. France, on the other hand, with its well funded arts sector will no doubt be bereft of a street performance scene. But don't worry; there will be a burgeoning influx of British artists willing and ready to perform on your streets.

If you pay for our Eurostar tickets, we will come.

Latterly, I have realized that I am merely following in the spirit of the visionary Buckminster Fuller, who coined the notion of ‘Trimtab’ – a system specifically designed and placed in the environment at such a time and in such a place as to maximise its effects, thereby effecting the most advantageous change with the least resources, time and energy.

A STAGE FOR THEATRE The law of necessity For Kees Roorda, the Frisian playwright, the stage changes with the inherent logic of each play, always with the same the primary objective of using the means necessary to reach into the very being of the spectator.

Dear reader,

Kees Roorda Netherlands

I have been asked to tell you why my plays are sometimes performed in a theatre and sometimes in the open-air. Here are a few thoughts on the matter.

Playwright, scriptwriter

Born in Friesland in 1967, he writes and produces his own plays, both indoors and in the open air.

He is the co-founder of “the Glasshouse”, a collective and multidisciplinary production site. www.the-glasshouse.nl

Most of my artistic decisions are subconscious, instinctive and associative. They are a reaction to dilemmas (often moral) that I create for myself. That is not some kind of artistic pretentiousness. I mean that my choices depend on the relationship I have with my surroundings. For me, this relationship is often so troubling that I employ a stylised illusion to present my dilemmas to you, sharing them with you to become part of your reality.

For a long time, I thought that I was stylising reality, although I now realise that I was mistaken. An artist does not stylise reality, rather illusion. Whoever says otherwise does not stylise reality, but simply imitates it. To imitate reality amounts to an arrogant denial of the sublime. A work of art does not represent reality but appeals to your power of conception, making you experience something real: the feeling of anguish, for example, or of beauty or perhaps both at once. It is in the theatre that I have experienced the most intense feelings, always in a strong presence of stylisation or artifice. Realism had nothing to do with it.

KEES ROORDA / THE WORKBOOKS OF VIA EUROPEA.EU _ N°1 _ JANVIER 2008

When choosing a theatre hall or outside location, I rely on the initial content and the possibilities for stylisation. The implications of choosing an indoor or outdoor location are very different. I believe that there is little point in recreating a theatre for an outside performance. The same is true of performances where the use of an outdoor site simply for the scenery is the sole artistic goal. In outdoor theatre, the separation between the stage area and the area designated for the audience is far less clear than in theatres, where viewing conditions are more or less the same. That is why I use a specific narrative strategy outside. I abandon traditional viewing conditions, creating new strategies to establish contact with the spectator. In doing so, I try to eliminate the separation between the hic et nunc and the theatrical area, encouraging instead a current flowing between the two.

That is why Finster Stimmen [Toxic Voices] was performed outside in a square of stretched white sheets, with four plays in which the audience met a Friesian family and was asked to play the role of the prodigal son. The separation between actor and spectator, between theatre and reality, was abandoned and the spectator lost all notion of time. In another show, I wanted to encourage the spectator to compose his own play. We created an acoustic area where the resonating voices of actors performing a ritual in the semi-darkness pervaded the silence. The spectator had to abandon his passive view to bring the different narratives together. These were part of the theatrical installation and represented the content of the play.

There are other plays where I don’t actually choose between interior and exterior. For Titus geen Shakespeare, a debate-cum-performance In outdoor theatre, (radio/theatre), I opted for a studio in the separation between which the spectators and listeners (the play was broadcast on radio and the stage area and the area Internet) were able to influence the designated for the audience direction of the performance. The is far less clear than spectators sat together with the actors in a confined area, like a radio studio, in theatres while the listeners were in their own private environment. The performance area was somewhere between the walls of the recording studio and the invisible world outside.

My last play was performed in a theatre where the audience was separated from the performance area.

A man was subjected to a robust interrogation. The theme of the play was a society in which it is no longer possible to recognise evil and the play moved between different genres (detective and melodrama) and the continuous variations of the narrative. The roles also changed constantly. I used the rules of theatre to create ambiguity in the illusion and to cloak identity in confusion.

The choice of an indoor or outdoor location depends considerably on the content of my work. I try to give shape to this content such that it touches the very being of the spectator.

In this form, the trick is to make myself invisible and disappear.

The rules of RoToR’s game RoToR is not us, nor is it what we do. It is a mechanism which is constantly evolving within the relationships we create. Once RoToR came into service in Barcelona in 2001, it continued to introduce different agents, factors and components, constantly mutating its functions and appearances.

In a direct action involving no intermediation, and using the body as a tool and its immediate surroundings as a medium, RoToR’s method is based on personal experience and the processing of raw materials so that each person make use of it as he or she wishes. RoToR gives rise to evolutionary processes, opens new corridors and links so that ideas may circulate.

RoToR never reaches its conclusion, constantly making new connections and building bridges between the inner and the outer, the personal and the collective.

Even when widely dispersed in different places, agents fed by and connected to RoToR function autonomously through independent but interconnected missions and explorations.

Local and personal experiences in unknown, abandoned, transitional territories provide a common playground, a form of support in which new codes are established to be exchanged and shared.

The final objective is not conditioned by concrete results, rather it is a sum of intentions which itself would define both form and structure. The collected information and materials are translated, organised, visualised and experimented with for later consultation, upgrading and modification.

URBAN BODIES Living arts, food for the city For Eliana Amadio and Giovanni Poleggi, the city is a complex living organism possessing a memory and capable of evolving. Urban arts are the sap of this large urban body, watering the land with an essential sensitivity.

Eliana Amadio Giovanni Poleggi Italy

Co-artistic directors of “Corpi Urbani (Urban bodies) festival di danza urbana” www.associazioneartu.it

It is possible to define a territory, recognise it, belong to it and change it. We can watch it evolve over time, sculpted by natural phenomena or human will. Today, we can even discover a territory without necessarily experiencing it at first hand. New technologies and the Internet, which invade places and eliminate distances, mean that we are part of a shared space, a cyberspace, which encompasses and unifies everything. And yet a territory consists first and foremost of a meeting between architectural and urban elements and the socio-cultural sphere.

From a “bodily” point of view, a territory can be seen as a collection of parts comprising an organism. A productive and welcoming or, inversely, a damaged and anonymous organism. An organism which, in order to function, needs to be observed and listened to so that it is fed in the most efficient manner possible. Although a territory can easily become weak – as shown by the fragility of its environment and the

precarious nature of the physical, social, economic or political balances – it is also possible to make it blossom. In general, culture can contribute to such a blossoming. A culture nourished by tradition and novelty, living both on the present and on what it has inherited. A culture which needs to be recognisable and recognised to avoid being snuffed out.

And so a relationship develops between urban bodies and human bodies, each reflecting and feeding the others. The architectural bodies reflect the culture of a place and the human organism which lives in the city reflects the urban physiognomy. The body is part of the reality with which it is in contact. It shares the environment with the other bodies and perceives the areas it crosses to such an extent that we can physically “feel” the difference between urban environments. We have a feeling of well-being in coastal towns where the vista is much wider and where we can see the

horizon, while we feel more claustrophobic in cities built over a small area, circumscribed by miles of streets lined with arcades.

The intervention of art in an urban area contributes to increasing the sensitivity of the place: the physical intervention of a person or an unusual structure destabilises people, confuses them or makes them happy, causes them think or encourages them to pay more attention to the environment. And if art endeavours to speak of reality, it can do so in two different ways: by talking about it or by changing it.

Contemporary art is perceived as the new sap needed by a territory either to follow the traces of the past or to set off on a new path. Regenerating itself, getting into shape, exploring new possibilities of wellbeing: is it really so different from the needs of a human body?

Moreover, the body has a memory which allows it to relive the past, while it also has the possibility to evolve and enjoy new experiences. Even if it may sometimes be transient and ephemeral, urban art becomes part of a territory’s memory, enriching it in a manner both subtle and surprising, unique in its flourishing and yet universally accessible. If we really can “feel” a territory, then the performances and installations created in an urban context can transform this feeling, even leaving a mark in the

collective and individual memory. Urban art can also reflect the manner in which a city is seen, precisely because it breaks with habits.

Generally, we hurry from one place to another, we follow the same paths, partly due to practical necessity, partly by habit. We rarely find the time to slow down. Taking the time to stop, admiring a work of art or an artist is in itself an extraordinary event.

A time out from the frenetic pace of our daily life while enjoying a pleasant moment of entertainment.

We should take time out a little more often.

In the experience of the Corpi urbani / Urban bodies festival in Genoa, the relationship between the body and urbanity is constantly explored from two standpoints – that of the dancer or the actor invited by the artistic directors to interpret the site, and that of the spectator who, deliberately or by chance, witnesses this relationship. During the performance, the area, the artist and the audience are the protagonists of a transformation which extols cultural heritage, provides new meanings and constantly enriches our points of view.

And this with the intention of making art and culture two factors of a city’s development. Art which, designed to be part of the urban fabric, can contribute to changing our perceptions of this very fabric and enhancing not only the architectural appearance of a city, but also, and in particular, the sensitive aspect of urbanity.

“I DIDN’T SEE ANYTHING, BUT IT WAS GREAT!” Or when art flirts with a working class district for a few days At the end of September 2007, Lieux publics organised the “Small is beautiful” festival in collaboration with the IN SITU network – an invitation for twelve European companies to participate in an original event in the Saint-André district of Marseille (France), an area where the inhabitants aren’t used to “things happening” and hesitate between reticence and enthusiasm. A few weeks after the festival, they gave their impressions: they were there without really being there, they saw without participating, happy to have been disturbed by this artistic intrusion into their daily lives but disturbed to be happy, preferring to let someone else talk about it…

“Did you see it?

So I go to see the florist. A smell of tobacco, pink neon, a few plants in pots. And at the back, sitting at a desk, Raoul. “We saw them go past in the street from the shop. The little shows looked nice, but I didn’t go. There are always a few teenagers making a nuisance of themselves, but they’re harmless. In general, we don’t let them get out of hand.

– Mr. Garonne, did you see the “Small is beautiful” festival?” He looks away. “No: I was in Rome with the Pope.” Laughing, Mr. Garonne trots off. A little further along Boulevard Grawitz, a young woman is washing the pavement. “What about you, miss?

Just as I am thinking of abandoning my quest, a man standing still in the half-light of the arcades of the Tuileries council housing block calls to me without actually looking at me. “What are you looking for?”

I explain. “Yes, I saw something!

– Really?

– Yes! I saw the pianist! It was great what they did with that piano. Really great!” I throw in a more detailed question: “There was a clown there as well, wasn’t there?

– Ah, no, I didn’t see the clown.”

A young woman wearing a smock stops nearby. She switches off her Ipod, puts her bucket and wiper down. “I saw the clown. I was there with my daughter.

NOUVEAU CIRQUE IS LEAVING DOMMELHOF In the autumn, Theater op de Markt, the international festival of street arts and contemporary circus, invades the Provinciaal Domein Dommelhof in Neerpelt, Belgium. For a few days, the site is transformed into a village ruled by the power of the imagination, beating to the magical rhythm of living art. But then what happens?

Circus is leaving town Oh Ruby, roll your stockins down Circus is leaving town Oh Ruby, dry your eyes 1

Tuur Devens Belgium Journalist, author

Born in 1951, Tuur Devens is a theatre critic and teacher. He is interested in theatre both for adults and children, contemporary dance, puppetry and circus. He is a member of the Flemish Ministry of Culture’s committee of theatre experts.

A sad (and therefore beautiful?) song in which the departure of the circus is used as a metaphor for the departure of a loved one. The farewell evokes sadness and melancholy. Only memories of being together will remain. A loved one leaving is like a circus leaving town. But does that metaphor still stand in 2007?

And can it be reversed: is a departing circus like a loved one leaving? Are we dealing with real ‘duende’ here, or with false romance? These past few summers, we have been flooded with so many street theatre festivals, open-air festivals and side shows that you

could be forgiven for wondering whether circus theatre (and consequently also the departure of a group or groups) still produces a deep cathartic effect, stirring the emotions and evoking theatre lovesickness.

8th November 2007, the grounds surrounding the Dommelhof in Neerpelt, a small town of 16,000 inhabitants in north-east Belgium. Provinciaal Domein Dommelhof is situated on the edge of town.

The venue comprises a theatre, a couple of halls, meeting rooms and offices. A little further on, beyond a large sports hall, there is accommodation for 130 guests. Between and around the buildings there are paths, a brook, many trees and grass. In the “wood of sounds” created here, people walk their dogs, strollers find peace and quiet, cultural or otherwise. Besides the chatter of birds, you can hear sounds from installations stirred by a breeze. Gentle sounds. At the sports hall, 50-year-olds work out and the handball team is in training, while on the recently constructed running track outside, a host of girls dream of matching Kim Gevaert’s performances.

This is the heart of Theater op de Markt, the international festival of street theatre and contemporary circus. This is where artists can work

WHOSE WALLS? Transient art for a shared public area Gigantic portraits of Palestinians and Israelis plying the same trade, stuck face to face in public areas, on either side of the Dividing Wall. That was Face2Face, a daring project which brought fame to its authors, JR and Marco. Since then, the two authors have pursued their work, springing surprises in daily city life to change our way of seeing things.

JR France Photographer

Clandestine photographer born in France, JR currently lives in Paris. Since 2001 he has turned his photos into posters, using public areas as his gallery. http://face2faceproject.com

The relationship between a street artist and public areas is ambivalent, as it relies on his taking over a space which does not belong to him, be it for a day or forever.

When I began to express myself on walls, I wanted to leave my mark. I would walk past places I had already tagged and try to find the marks I had left.

My approach changed when I undertook a tour of European street arts. I met amazing tag artists who created huge projects, but I understood that I would have to abandon tagging for posters. I had a much more pressing desire to represent people than to create solitary works. I also wanted to leave memories on walls and not just indelible marks.

A poster on a wall is a living thing. You are in contact with the material – glue, water, paper, sweat. You can

come back and revisit the poster a month later.

Perhaps it is still intact, perhaps someone will have added a red nose to a portrait, perhaps it will have been torn poetically or aggressively. A poster is transient. Every day, it is subject to the reactions of the “audience”, who may decide to tear it, cover it up or transform it. Sometimes, the wind and rain become involved, turning a portrait into confetti on a wall, with only an eye or an ear sticking out, or sometimes nothing.

Then there is the question of property. I stick works on walls which don’t belong to me. And I generally have no permission to do so. Sometimes, the walls on which I stick my work don’t really belong to those who control them. So the situation becomes more and more complex. Who does the “safety barrier”

And it is here that the public area may play a role – by creating surprises and asking questions.

Of course, to take possession of this public area you must have something to say, an original message to convey. It has to be worth the effort for the police, the legal system, the local elected representatives or the owners of the buildings sometimes adopt a restrictive approach to the issue of public areas.

To my great surprise, during my illegal exhibition in the Near East, the strongest opposition that I encountered was from the owners of the walls on which I stuck my work. The preservation of private
