Şehri her gün kullananlar onu nasıl algılıyor?
Yabancı bir şehri sanatçılar nasıl algılıyor?
Şehir, yerleşik sanatçıları/fotoğrafçıları tarafından çalışmalarında nasıl yansıtılıyor?

2010 ile 2011 arasında çeşitli Avrupa şehirlerinde gerçekleştirilen “City Cultures in Focus” adlı kültürlerarası projenin merkezinde bu üç
soru duruyor. Almanya, İtalya, Avusturya, Polonya, Romanya ve Türkiye’den katılan organizatörlerimiz ve partnerlerimizle birlikte şehir
kültürünün nasıl oluştuğu ve algılandığı konusunu yaratıcı metotlarla irdelemeye çalıştık.

“Kenti kullananlar”ın fotoğraflarından oluşan seçki, sanatçıların katkılarıyla birlikte Bükreş, İstanbul, Krakov ve Viyana şehir kültürlerine
tümüyle dolaysız ve kişisel bakışlara olanak tanıyor ve izleyiciyi kendi şehriyle veya yabancı şehirle ilgili kişisel bir tartışmaya ve düşünmeye
davet ediyor.


How is the city perceived by its every-day users?
How do artists perceive a "foreign" city?
How is the city reflected by local artists/photographers in their work ?

These three questions are the main themes of the inter-cultural project "City Cultures in Focus" by the organization X-CHANGE, which took place in various European cities in 2010/ 2011. Together with co-organizers and partners throughout Europe, the subject of city culture(s), its development and perception, has been explored through creative means.

The resulting selection of photographs by "city users" and the artists' contributions give insights into the city cultures of Bucharest, Istanbul, Krakow and Vienna in a very immediate and personal way. The viewer is encouraged to engage himself and reflect about his own or an unknown city.
