Meeting in oporto

Abstract

This article analyzes two artistic interventions carried out in a public space in the city of Oporto, which coincided chronologically but, in their diversity, present common points such as the openness to participation and inclusion and the coexistence of opposite poles of sign + and – in a tension between the wild landscape and the urban ± wild. Both, in their specificities, summoned the community character, critical thinking and the capacity for action and achievement. At the intersection of these projects, the mediation put into practice by ESE.
