The research focuses on ephemeral urban artistic practices. We are interested in observing the actions practiced in cities which, despite being quite different, share a similar sociocultural context. Artistic activities, in the public space, are a worldwide phenomenon and demonstrate a social responsibility of the artist, common in urban centres. The contemporary artist demonstrates a certain urgency to intervene in his context and to find breaches that allow him to break the continuous flows of daily life in a creative, procedural and experimental way. Based on the Berlin case study, we propose to make a cut of the new creative processes of contemporary art, in which the city is used as a central element. The space of collective use becomes a place of subjectivity production and also of social interaction, through the new urban artistic practices.
