Artists, temporality, and the governance of collaborative place-making

By: Bain, Alison L.
Contributor(s): Landau, Friederike.
Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: 2019Description: p.405-427.Subject(s): Local government In: Urban Affairs ReviewSummary: Place-making is a policy exercise rooted in a politics of both space and time. By examining the temporal sequencing of discursive relations and governance networks in the cultural redevelopment of Güterbahnhof Moabit in Berlin, this article demonstrates the fallacy of place-making via artist proxy. It documents the hidden expectations of artist stakeholders and the overextension of their capacities in their municipally delegated and self-assumed roles as “strategic” and “collaborative” partners with local government in place-making processes. It argues that contrary to collaborative and participatory governance ideals, artists are often singularly responsibilized by civic leaders to realize place-narratives for a community rather than with them, which creates a fundamental barrier to community engagement. - Reproduced.
