The City Is Ours #6 - Involuntary Sculptures

The 6th issue of The City Is Ours focuses on “Involuntary Sculptures,” inspired by the works of Marcel Duchamp and Akasegawa Genpei.

This final edition delves into objects and structures found in cities, not designed as art, but emerging from everyday interactions and unintentional arrangements.

By recognizing and appreciating these overlooked elements, we can shift our perception, uncovering unexpected beauty and meaning in even the most familiar urban landscapes. What hidden masterpieces will you discover today?

About The City Is Ours:

Halfway between a book and a magazine, “The City Is Ours” is a finite series of 6 bookzines published by Other Editions that invite you to explore your city, town, or street with more curious eyes. One detail at a time.

Urban ready-mades, involuntary paintings, accidental sculptures and parts of the urban landscape that normally go unnoticed.

With a scientific-but-ironical approach, each issue analyzes a specific detail related to the streetscape through a photo essay. Art is used as a tool: to help bring awareness to our surroundings.

It features also works by international artists, photographers, and observers: images combined with clear and simple language inspire the reader to observe the city as they have never seen it before.
