Schmuck als urbaner Prozess

Artistic Interventions in Urban Space
Documentation of a Research Project

edited by Elisabeth Holder and Gabi Schillig

"Schmuck als urbaner Prozess" is a research and exhibition project initiated in 2012 by the Design Department of the Düsseldorf University of Applied Sciences and the Stadtmuseum of the City of Düsseldorf, the capital city of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia. Under the same title, the results were shown in an exhibition and are now presented in this book.

The concepts presented in the exhibition range from site-unspecific designs that fall under the categories of Material and Inspiration, to site-specific and site-related forms of interaction with selected places and situations that are sorted in the categories of Exploration, Stage, Occasion, and Invitation. All the projects are linked by an analytical and process-oriented exploration of the Düsseldorf cityscape, as well as by an experimental approach and diverse media documentation of the resulting works. Through them, our perception of urban space is changed and new urban spaces of interaction and participation are created.
