Arts’R’Public

Arts’R’Public is an international project for Arts in Public Spaces co-funded by the Creative Europe programme, involving four European and African cities: Marseilles, Hamburg, Genoa and Marrakech.
It was organized by Eurocircle in partnership with HausDrei (Hamburg, Germany), Sarabanda (Genoa, Italy), Éclats de Lune (Marrakech, Morocco), Lézarap’art (Marseilles, France).

4 mentors, 4 artists from each country, and 32 young artists, Arts’R’Public developed in different phases in different cities over one and a half years since January 2016, with residency workshops, collective works and performances during renowned festivals, from which experiences the selected artists had a unique opportunity to also work on their personal projects.

With material collected on these occasions, I edited documentary videos for my research project on living together issues
(cf. “What it means to live together” page):

Among the videos I edited, I also mention the following two based on collective work with other resident artists, as the result was due to team work and discussion on our different ideas, so they are connected with my project as a further exploration on “sharing a space”; in these cases: a public space and an artistic space:

“Avons-nous le droit d’être là?” – (Do we have the right to be here?)
