(about Sustainable cities Conference. Foundations and our urban future)

Text: Constantin Goagea

Among the first 5 in the world in the top of cities to experiment/live in, always as an example in architecture and design debates, to be found in scientific and academic references, or in the political practice, people keep on talking about the Danish model, Copenhagen and how happy its citizens are. I would add that even the mayor of Bucharest recently declared  that he would like a copenhagen-ization of our city: bycicles and a smart infrastructure, a statement which we hope to happen. So, something happens again in Denmark, since this year great American and European foundations gathered here in a massive conference, to talk in Copenhagen about their role in a future of sustainable urbanization. The conference would not have explicit topics related to architecture or urban planning, being rather about funding policies and new directions in charity work, but most of the workshops, debates and publications managed to get a mix of visions in which economic growth and urban practice are correlated in a new way.

Calup community invites you to its second urban intervention, on Masaryk street 25 (Bucharest), the former archive of Romania Film and the place where censorship was done, where the word “no” was annulling the image, intention, artistic endeavour. The film, moving shadows, is still haunting, since the house’s only present function is being a movie set.

During the first phase of the intervention we will explore the garden and underground, with an experience in which shadows are more important than what is generating them. The next phases will open the vast chambers of the house, moving up.

Rosia Montana is on the final list of Europe’s 7 most endangered sites and monuments
