Factories of Imagination

"In the European urban landscape of the end of the 20th century, many sites symbolic of industrial merchant and military age lost their raison d’etre and felt into disuse, their memory set aside. 'Industrial wastelands, eyesores, silent spaces' are words of absence that designate the brutal passage from one epoch to another, leaving neighborhoods disfigured and people out of work…and yet they open unexpected perspectives for use.” From the book “Factories of the Imagination” published by Trans Europe Halles Network.
