SMARTCITY EU | new urban challenges - new artistic practices

SmartCityEU is an art project which explores and develops new artistic interventions within urban spaces in European cities during a 2 year period in 2008 and 2009.

At the forefront of new practices, SmartCityEU operates an art rereading of urban space and offers a vision of a balanced and sustainable European city reoriented towards citizens.

SmartCityEU has been initiated by 4 major cultural institutions sharing a common interest in new art forms and new media: Dédale [Paris | FR], WRO [Wroclaw | PL], Zoneattive [Rome | IT] and AltArt [Cluj | RO].

The 4 operators have applied together to the European Commission’s Culture programme in 2007.

Moreover, SmartCityEU wants to bring together numerous actors in the fields of art, urban development and new technologies and associates trans-national skills and networks in 8 European cities: Paris, Wroclaw, Rome, Cluj, Istanbul, Brussels, Maribor and Novi Sad.
