Part of the Open Cities/Art Cities Festival at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts
“Cities have the capability of providing something for everybody, only because, and only when, they are created by everybody.”― Jane Jacobs, The Death and Life of Great American Cities
What makes a city a city? Does the city have a voice, and, if so, does it speak to us? How do we experience the city and thus create it? A panel of artists, curators, and creative thinkers will talk about the conceptual, relatable, practical, and questionable aspects of contemporary San Francisco and its relationship to artistic practice.
