- Ivaylo Getov: Bulgarian Squat ShopsJanuary 4
-



Schöne Fotoserie von Ivaylo Getov über ein relativ unbekanntes Phänomen: Bulgarian Squat Shops. “In the late 80’s, private ownership of production was legalized in Bulgaria. Among the first businesses to appear were these small “Squat Shops,” operated out of floor-level cellar windows. Despite more legitimate storefront space becoming available, these small portals remained operational and lucrative - miniature convenience stores catering to the cigarette fix of the passing pedestrian or the midday thirst of those waiting on bus stops, for which patrons have no objection to stooping to street level.

#67. Wood Makes People Big as Cars: “The Austrian civil engineer Hermann Knoflacher developed the Gehzeug, or walkmobile, in 1975 to allow a pedestrian to approximate the amount of space taken by a motorist. It is ideal for protesting against the primacy given to automobiles in the city, or just taking a walk in traffic.” Spannende Ausstellung im Canadian Centre for Architecture: Actions: What You Can Do With The City (bis 19. April 2009) “explores the thousands of examples around the globe of people reclaiming urban space through Do-It-Yourself (DIY) actions in order to humanize the failed urban realities around them. While urban action has become a hot subject over the recent years, the CCA has approached the subject from a broad critique that mixes 99 Actions done by artists, architects, designers, politicians, activists, athletes and most importantly average citizens.” (*) Hier gibt´s die Essays der Kuratoren, (1, 2), und hier noch mehr Infos.
