Even more than physical space, a living and breathing city needs psychological space: places for collaboration, discussion, education. To build this system it is necessary to construct new bases and abandon the logic – and the rhetoric – of the event. Enclosing art and culture in institutions, segregating them within fenced-off areas is neither healthy nor intelligent, now less so than ever. Temporary vacancies in these spaces can facilitate the adoption of radically innovative cultural practices (and policies).
