Ephemeral Urban Intervention: Dutch students experience a slice of Barcelona
From November 13 to 17, a group of second year students of ABK Maastricht visited Barcelona to execute an ephemeral urban intervention in the city. Led by art critic and professor Jeffrey Swartz, the project kicked off with a session on Barcelona history, urban identity, and ideas of urban intervention. Groups of students were then assigned the Plaça Sant Felip Neri, Estació de França, Mercat de Santa Caterina, Rambla del Raval, and Els Encants. The students then presented their work to Metafora. Here are some of their pieces:
