DESCRIPTION
Contemporary cities are much more complex than the ones we have inherited from our forebears. Organisms in continuous grow, heterogeneous, strati ed, multiethnic and clutte- red. We feel them distant from our needs, often uncomfortably and dangerous spaces where to let our children grow. But something is happening all over the world. A new and extraordinary process of regeneration and transformation that is getting back humans to their vital spaces. Tiny but tangible bottom-up revolutions in which new technologies and art are helping communities to change their places, their cities.
The first season of Art for Change will recount in 5 episodes, shot in the Southern Europe, the stories of common people involved in tiny revolutions which are changing the face of our suburbs. Every episode of the series will open with an overture that, using a voice o and animated cartoons, will introduce the core theme. After this we will meet the people, hearing the voices of citizens, social operators, artists and architects involved into these 5 marginal outskirts of Italy, Albania and Spain. We will close every episode with a particular focus on the follow-up of every project, giving space to children, leading characters of these changing communities.
