During TRIBRU24, twelve artists and architects set to work on the theme of Spaces of Possibility, the city of Bruges and its public space: how can we deal with densification and transformation in a city whose boundaries have been shaped by its medieval history? How can we make better use of un(der)used public space and facilitate new forms of living together in the city?
In addition to an overview of the twelve installations with additional visual material, curators Shendy Gardin and Sevie Tsampalla invited guest authors Joachim Declerck, Dimitri Minten, Tim Vekemans, Stavros Stavrides, Koen Timmerman, Dries Van Den Broucke and Françoise Vergès to join them to delve deeper into the theme of Spaces of Possibility. Topics such as ‘residual space’, a sustainable future for Bruges, to whom does public space belong and the role of biennials and triennials are addressed. With various essays and interviews, they offer a vision of what Bruges - and more broadly a city - can be, today and in the future.
The publication Futuring Spaces of Possibility will be available in a selection of bookshops, at In&Uit ('t Zand 34, 8000 Brugge) and via merbooks.be from 20.08.2024.
