Beschreibung
The Contradictions of Urban Art constitutes an
inquiry into the dynamics of artistic creativity that
transgresses the boundaries of public art as well
as into the inventions expressed by the practical activities
and academic research focused on contemporary urban spaces.
It demonstrates how the multilingualism of art and science
raises the temperature of discussions concerning the city.
It advises that what we call city art should
include outdoor events, prose and poetry.
Ewa Rewers is Professor of Cultural Urban
Studies at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan.
