Materials: ink on paper

Collection: Collection M HKA, Antwerp (Inv. no. M00187).

Proposal for the total abolition of traffic regulations (in Antwerp), is a plan for a new kind of city, one with a smaller footprint and with more attention paid to the lived environment.

The proposal bucks the trend that contends that cities should be clean, orderly and safe, and that such is achievable through good management, with more 'blue' on the street, with more regulations, controls and arbitrary fines.  But a city bubbling with life can only exist when self-organization, chaos, sensuality and interaction within the public arena are freely permitted.

About M HKA / Mission Statement

The M HKA is a museum for contemporary art, film and visual culture in its widest sense. It is an open place of encounter for art, artists and the public. The M HKA aspires to play a leading role in Flanders and to extend its international profile by building upon Antwerp's avant-garde tradition. The M HKA bridges the relationship between artistic questions and wider societal issues, between the international and the regional, artists and public, tradition and innovation, reflection and presentation. Central here is the museum's collection with its ongoing acquisitions, as well as related areas of management and research.
