Summary:
German/English reprint of the 1979 publication. This book argues that in our modern cities we have lost sight of the traditional understanding of urban spaces. What has to be clearly defined is what should be understood by the term 'urban space' and what meaning it holds within the urban structure, so that we can go on to examine whether the concept of urban space retains some validity in contemporary town planning and on what grounds. 'Space' in this context is a hotly disputed concept. A new definition is not generated, but its original meaning is brought back into currency.

Summary:
Coming out of an international symposium at Germany's University of St. Gallen and Hamburg's Kampnagel Culture Factory in 2007, this book addresses the question of how art affects urban space. ParCITYpate is a departure for artists, curators and innovative minds in the urban and spatial realms far from the beaten path of art theory and urban political dialogue. Bringing together the perspectives of international urban researchers and social scientists with artists, art theorists and curators, this fertile collection offers new ideas on the effects of urban art projects and their interaction with urban culture, development, economics and politics. Beyond praise or criticism, artistic interventions take part in the production of city space by opening new possibilities for urban action.
