The roles of an institute of a temporary planning process
Joja, Marie
A strategy of temporary use provides an opportunity for obtaining new ideas in the process of testing different concepts of permanence. It enables municipalities and other authorities to experiment with various approaches to abandoned areas, vacant plots and unused buildings. The proposal of the paper is to define the main roles of an independent institution which serves as a mediator among all the parties involved in the process of temporary use - owners of premises, potential temporary users and the neighbouring community. The research analyses case studies of the most significant temporary planning institutes in Europe and summarises the general principles of a temporary planning institute. Municipalities working with a proposed temporary planning institute possess a number of tools for the implementation of legible procedures of temporary use in the process of activation of neglected areas.
Pop-up: Aktivace nevyužívaných prostorů
Joja, Marie
Contemporary generation called “millenials” comes with a new lifestyle. Therefore market needs to adapt to it in order to keep up with current trends. The generation is provided with almost unlimited opportunities for their own realization. They spend most of their lives online, connected to social networks that determine cultural trends. Sharing experiences through blogs and posting photos is a new form of passing on experience. A difference between live experience and the one absorbed through social platforms is blurred. Enthusiasm for traveling and discovering new things does not match long-term planning and prefers short-term and temporary forms of operation. Therefore this lifestyle opens to pop-up trend. Pop-up is not one of new trends. Pop-up benefits from unlimited possibilities of newly arisen cultural scene as well as a number of abandoned and neglected places in the very centres of cities. Pop-up is a general term used with any form of business including gastronomy or cultural event which is strictly short-term. It profits from a moment of surprise, it offers an unexpected and unique experience “now and here”. In the US, the pop-up industry has a long tradition and there exist many servers that provide communication between owners of unused spaces and operators of temporary activities and this trend spreads among continents. Pop-ups abroad, a success of individual projects in the Czech Republic, the Czech pop-up cultural scene supported by a platform for communication and solving problems related not only to the legislative process are questions that will be analysed by this article.
An abandoned site (A serie of wall paintings in the environs of an urban outskirts)
MALÁK, Martin
In this theoretic-practically focused diploma thesis I deal with the issue of an abandoned site and its potencial for the art creation itself. Firs I attempt to foreshow the modern aspects of the art in relation to the urban outskirts creation. I focus on the distinct graffiti phenomenon an its role within the cultural developement of the modern society. In connection with forementioned I aspire to define the phenomenon of site and space. Furthermore I adress the importance of the outskirts with reference to the environmental psychology. Afterwards I carry through a critical reflexion of the theoretical knowledge fragments and apply new findings while resolving the creative task. In the practical part of this thesis I create triptych of wall paintings in the environs of an urban outskirts on the topic of an abandoned site and consequently I carry out their explication.
