stadtraum.org
stadtraum.org is a collaborative project between Markus Ambach and Andrea Knobloch. Since the project's founding in 2002 they have worked on the theme of art in the public space or in the urban social context by offering discussion in the space of social activity and by committing themselves to local political issues. Their overall aim is to create artworks which subscribe to the public space, consciously becoming a new and responsible part of it. | ||
