Adopting as its premise the notion of carnival pageantry as a practice that alters the established order, Playgrounds. Reinventing the square explores the collective dimension of play and the need for a “ground” of its own in order to engage in the construction of a new public arena. Playgrounds takes a historical and artistic approach to the space reserved for play and its socializing, transgressive and political potential from the dawn of modernity to the present day. Playgrounds aims to explore the recreational, playful, festive side of life that puts the humdrum reality of the everyday on hold, subverting, reinventing and transcending it for one fleeting moment. Play / spelen / playgrounds
