For The Right to the City guest curator Madelon van Schie selected work by seven artists from Latin America. The works all examine the use of urban space and life in the city in their own way. The artists see themselves as allies of the marginalized city dwellers of Buenos Aires, Lima, Mexico City, Recife, Santa Cruz de la Sierra and Brasilia, respectively. With that alliance as their point of departure, they deal with themes including the relation between the centre and periphery, squatting and self-construction, and the design and use of the city. Each and every one of the artworks included in the exhibition is a unique, often unexpected, and sometimes playful contribution to what ‘the right to the city’ means.
