Circular City

During the summer of 2016 Cityscapes Gallery organizes, in collaboration with Marineterrein Amsterdam, an ongoing art program, with exhibitions, installations, lectures and talks. Summer In The City #3: Circular City explores various subjects within the theme of circularity, like: durability/endlessness, shortage/surplus, growth/decline, utopia/dystopia. Works of art and architecture will appear in shifting combinations on different locations on the Marineterrein, aimed to inspire ideas and discussion about 'the circular city'. 

The first in a series of 'Marineterrein Talks', where a group of outstanding artists, architects and scientists discuss the 'circular city'. The Talk starts with short statements from the speakers, fueled by topical insights from their own discipline and illustrated by one of the exhibited works. Then follows a discussion, moderated by Indira van 't Klooster. 'Stand-up essayist' Dirk van Weelden will complete the Talk with a personal resume. Afterwards we'll visit a RAAAF work in one of the other buildings on the Marineterrein.

We continue the manifestation in August-September with an intimate group exhibition in the former Commandantswoning of the Marineterrein: The Circular City Salon.

If you missed the first Marineterrein Talk, the manifestation will be concluded on September 16 with a second Marineterrein Talk with a new group of speakers who will discuss the meaning of art and circularity from a fresh angle, according with their particular disciplines.
