The Project

Viewed from this angle, “Frontside” was not a classic project for art in public spaces. It was not motivated by the kind of corrective approach under which all aesthetic practice has to be endowed with an aura of artistic nobility. Rather, it was the kind of project in which the city itself provides the raw material for art.
