Arts and culture as experimental spaces in the city

Dominique Puype

City, 2004, vol. 8, issue 2, 295-301

Abstract: Ghent has played a leading role in democratizing cultural practices and processes of consumption, by directing them to the benefit of the city's neighbourhood communities. Through arts and cultural projects, deprived citizens have been mobilized and their power, skills, talents and interests realized, through a process of facilitation that has not—as many projects of social assistance might—focused on their problems. Here, Dominique Puype tells of the successes and potentialities of projects organized in the city under the title Kunst in de Buurt (Arts in the Neighbourhood).
