- Do you see a capacity for transforming the city, its spaces or the use we make of them in artistic practice? Which public spaces do you use most day to day? Is there hope for the Santa Esperança public laundry? Do you think that Somanyprojects’ action has served to reactivate this space and awaken it in the town’s collective imaginary? Do you know of any other public space particular to women? What does the perspective of an artist offer us that an architect’s doesn’t consider when intervening in a space? What does a collaborative art practice consist of? Can an intervention of this type lead to some type of agencement on the part of the community? Would it be viable to consider more alternative uses of water such as public baths? How do you assess artistic practice as a work methodology for participatory urbanism projects? Would you be in favour of other activities being undertaken in public laundries besides washing clothing and the promotion of tourism? Are we very far off on the part of politicians from designing the cities where we want to live based on the needs of the citizens themselves? Do you have any questions for us? Do you have any questions for yourself?

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We begin setting out our thoughts on immediate architectural interventions with a couple of considerations. One of them addresses the architectural profession’s progressive disconnection from the social, from the political, from history, from the local, from ethics, from the body, from the ‘discipline’ itself. A whole generation of architects has abandoned the design of coexistence - undoubtedly one of the main tasks of architecture – in order to embrace, on the one hand, the serial fabrication of what we see as anti-architectures that repeat types, materials and structural systems on the basis of a pragmatic and productive juxtaposition of normative restrictions and the interests of bankers, investors, and developers; and on the other hand, the production of ‘stunning’ unique prototypes of image-architecture that satisfy the ill, self-worshipping yearnings of architects mired in the ceaseless luxury of formal exploration for the sake of form. We are critical of what is being embraced and of the practices that perpetuate disconnection from lived lives.

Intravention, durations, effects : notes of expansive sites and relational architectures
- 2013. - 1
-
Bok (refereegranskat)abstract
- This book is a carefully edited collection of work and research produced at the Laboratory of Immediate Architectural Intervention, Umeå School of Architecture, Umeå (Sweden), from July 2011 to July 2013. It includes short texts, architectural manifestos, research papers, interviews, conversations, and a reflective journey through the work produced at the laboratory. It is also a compilation of fragile and hesitant voices and experiments, tests and discussions, in and around what one could provisionally call, in lack of a better name, relational architecture. And as you will see later, I believe that fragility and hesitation are necessary qualities of our work and our relentless moving and wayfaring. It is organized in three parts: in the first one, after the foreword, the laboratory and some of its actions, reflections and proposals are presented and discussed from our point of view, from the inside. In addition to our own texts, this section includes reflections by Peter Kjaer and Roemer van Toorn, as well as an interview with Francesco Apuzzo and Axel Timm from ‘raumlabor berlin’ with whom we have developed a very interesting and fruitful relationship. The second part, ‘sites, agencies, matters of concern’, offers an overview of the work produced at the laboratory through graphic material (pictures and drawings) accompanied by a reflective discussion of the work and its relationships with what we have called, after Latour, our matters of concern. The third part shifts outwards and gathers contributions by some of the external guests whose committed participation we have had the pleasure of enjoying at some point during these years. Although related to our interests and positions, these contributions are those of ‘outsiders’ and therefore capable of enriching and expanding our range of questions and discussions in diverse and unexpected ways. This part includes texts by Susan Kelly, Javier Rodrigo, Antonio Collados, Aida Sánchez de Serdio and Per Nilsson. The book ends with a text on the notions of ‘sharing, displacing and caring’, that initiates an exploration of what I think is a much needed - and anarchic - ethics of encounter and contribution, while sketching some of the questions, fields and lines along which I hope to continue moving forward in discussion, research and action.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The paper discusses the potential of creative spatial practices aiming at the reactivation of abandoned or disused public places showing how artistic and collaborative practices can detonate complex processes of community reactivation and empowerment while rehearsing alternative urban models and city-making approaches.According to De Certeau, the city stages an endless, constant and silent battle between the apparatuses that produce disciplinary space, namely spatial practices, responsible for a secret structuring of the conditions of social life, and the various individual modes of re-appropriation, multiple and “multiform, resistance, tricky and stubborn procedures that elude discipline without being outside the field in which it is exercised.” (De Certeau, 1984: 96)These re-appropriation tactics and practices open up the way to another city, to another space, a space away from the clear text of the planned, readable or visible city. A space where another, invisible city lies. Such an ‘invisible’ city belongs to the realm of lived space; more precisely, life, the actual practices and relations taking place in space, the people inhabiting space, are sometimes able to imagine, engender and produce yet another type of space, or better still, a multiplicity of ‘other spaces’ that provide the locus for ‘other’ desires, needs, ideas, transitions, ‘becomings’, changes, actions and processes that would not find their place otherwise: a somewhat ‘invisible’ but fully lived space.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Veus en la pràctica artística la capacitat per transformar la ciutat, els seus espais o bé l’ús que en fem? Quins són els espais públics que més utilitzes en el teu dia a dia? Hi ha esperança per al safareig de Santa Esperança? Creus que l’acció de Somanyprojects ha servit per fer reactivar aquest espai i despertar-lo en l’imaginari col·lectiu del poble? Coneixeu algun altre espai públic que sigui propi de les dones? Què ens ofereix la mirada d’un artista que no contempli la d’un arquitecte a l’hora d’intervenir en un espai? En què consisteix una pràctica artistico-col·laborativa? Una intervenció d’aquest tipus pot conduir a alguna forma d’agenciament per part de la comunitat? Seria viable contemplar usos més alternatius de l’aigua com ara uns banys públics? Com valores la pràctica artística com a metodologia de treball per a projectes d’urbanisme participatiu? Us semblaria bé que s’hi realitzessin als safareigs altres activitats a part de rentar roba i de difusió turística? Estem molt lluny per part dels polítics de pensar les ciutats on volem viure a partir de les necessitats del propi ciutadà? Tens alguna pregunta a fer-nos? Alguna a fer-te a tu mateix?Performing Public Space es una veu múltiple, una artista de Missouri, un catedràtic d’universitat, un arquitecte, un regidor d’urbanisme, un regidor de cultura, la directora d’un museu, uns comissaris, un educador i investigador de l’art, unes cinc dones que encara renten en un safareig, una família, un parell de doctorands i tots aquells que no hi han estat inclosos. També es una sèrie d’agraïments.Es una redefinició i construcció d’espai públic a partir d’una mirada multidisciplinària sobre l’espai comú , l’art i la vida quotidiana. Potser es una pràctica artística col·laborativa hibrida que posa de manifest accions, iniciatives, propostes i reconeixements al voltant d’un espai molt específic i peculiar com ara els safareigs d’aigua termal.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- At the Laboratory of Immediate Architectural Intervention, we believe that our only option is to understand, critique, intervene in, and devise the various apparatuses which are enmeshed in our enactments of the world in order to qualitatively transform it. Agamben understands the apparatus as anything which can “capture, orient, determine, intercept, model, control, or secure the gestures, behaviors, opinions, or discourses of living beings”.He not only includes Foucault’s “prisons, madhouses, the panopticon, schools, … factories, disciplines, judicial measures” but also “… the pen, writing, literature, philosophy, agriculture, cigarettes, navigation, computers, cellular telephones and--why not--language itself ...”.Apparatuses co-determine our enactments of the world. Our work questions one of architecture’s apparatuses – the oft-persistent mirroring and representation of spaces of neoliberal agendas – and develops transversal, diffractive methodologies that produce effects in exchange with, and which transform, sites.

Rethinking public space : other public spaces: community, hybrid collaborative art practices and urban reactivation
- 2010
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Rethinking Public Space is a research project by Marta Serra Permanyer and Alberto Altés Arlandis that tries to approach the diverse processes of production and transformation of contemporary public spaces as well the relationships that are often established between art, everyday life and the space of the city. The project, that takes a closer look at a series of interventions in the village of Caldes de Montbui (Barcelona) trying to reflect around the idea of hybrid collaborative art practice, has been possible thanks to a research grant obtained from the Sala’d’Art Jove de la Secretaria de Joventut de la Generalitat de Catalunya.The idea was submitted as a proposal to a call for projects during the year 2008 and was selected in the research category. The project has been carefully and attentively tutored by Montse Romaní, who has been able to provide her experience and help in a very generous way while supervising the project.
