Guixot de 8, jocs reciclats. Un pas més enllà de l'escultura del segle XX Es tracta d’un conjunt d’escultures convertides en jocs que són una versió o una interpretació lliure d’una escultura feta per algun dels destacats escultors del segle XX, especialment per autors de l’anomena’t art cinètic.

Guixot de 8, jocs reciclats

Les versions o interpretacions d’aquesta col·lecció, són obra d’en Joan Rovira. Al llarg dels 21 anys que portem de trajectòria, hem sentit moltes vegades com ens comparaven amb alguns dels artistes que vam revolucionar el mon de l’art modern, especialment, el de l’escultura, artistes com: Calder, Tinguely, o Fischly i Weis. Una comparació que ens afalagava tot i que no érem conscients de les semblances que hi havia entre la seva obra i la nostra. Ara hem decidit entrar en l’obra d’aquests artistes cinètics per buscar-hi els punts de contacte. La veritat és que n’hi hem trobat força. És un gest per treure les obres d’art de la quietud dels museus cap al ritme i moviment del carrer i posar-les a la vista de tothom. Bruit du frigo ~ Projets.

Schools Without Walls. Schools Without Walls In 1973 anarchist Colin Ward and journalist Anthony Fyson published Streetwork, a result of their research for the UK's Town and Country Planning Associations Education Service.

Schools Without Walls

Their book focuses on the environmental education of the non-academic urban child. Having noticed a recent upsurge in public interest in town and country planning and the physical environment, the two collaborators set about rethinking environmental education. The ideology of Streetwork, was the use of the urban environment as an educational resource and its aim was to develop a school department into an integrated community based program of decision making on local urban issues. The bulk of their research was into existing 'schools without walls' experiments in the US and the UK. In the US, the Parkway Education Program in Philadelphia was an educational program funded by the local education authority that had no school buildings and students were chosen via a lottery.

Her text was a response to a commission from The Danish National Arts Foundation earlier the same year, asking for definitions of “ways in which visual art could contribute to add a sense of local identity” to a new urban area. The required form for the response pre-defined in the commission as the “operational plan”, and a future urban area outside of Roskilde in Denmark – Trekroner, was given as a point of departure – hence the title of the project.
