Changing Metropolis II

With the festival METROPOLIS, Copenhagen International Theatre moves out of the settings of the traditional theatre and into the city in order to create art, life and debate on the creative city. Over a 10-year period (2007-2017), Metropolis will challenge and transform urban spaces through artistic experiences, which play with the boundary between everyday life and staging. Metropolis is a concept with a festival, held in odd years and a laboratory in even years. Metropolis Laboratory is an international platform where artists, city planners, architects and researchers can meet the common challenge, of how to create more vibrant, inspiring and cohesive cities. Changing Metropolis ii is the second Metropolis publication. The publication consists of commissioned articles, rewritten speeches, commentaries and artistic projects made in the context of metropolis laboratory in 2008 and 2010 and metropolis biennale in 2009 and 2011.
