The Project
15 national and international artists transformed 15 streets and squares in the city of Basel. This temporary cityscape intervention by Littmann Kulturprojekte placed the public spaces in a new and unusual dimension. It made allusions to the local area and used diverse means of expression that drew both on classical and modern visual images. Strassenbilder (literally: Street Pictures) created some unexpected new identities, perceptions and points of reference, thus contributing to the debate on the value, meaning and potential of public spaces.
