Outdoor Urban Planning Opening
"The city exists and propels itself at many different levels - the emotional as well as the technical, the specific as well as the general, the earthy as well as the symbolic" -Dan Dimancescu Re-imagine the communities that existed in the 1940's and 50's prior to an era of modernization that included the Central Artery construction, which would eventually evolve into the Big Dig and the Rose F. Kennedy Greenway. Join Lumen Collective in re-tracing the Greenway using LED rope lights to plot the buildings that formerly stood on the square. Visitors are invited to explore highlighted sections of Dewey Square Park and interact with a guided tour and physical map. Through an illuminated recreation of the site, the work allows viewers to re-consider the roles of public and private space in modern day urban planning. |
