situa.to is a free workshop which was conceived for the Y-Our Time project on the occasion of Torino 2010 European Youth Capital, its activities aim at exploring and describing the city through the eyes of 30 young researchers selected from a shortlist of over 200 candidates aged between 22 and 29, who share one special feature – the election of Torino as the city where to live, study and work. Some are from Italy and others are from Brazil, Israel, Greece, Albania. Architects, artists, writers, students and graduates in liberal studies, enthusiast and experts of literature, photography, movie, music, drama all ventured on a practical and guided transversal research.
All were led to seize the instances of different disciplinary approaches, attempting to find a dialogue based on confrontation and addressing questions of the many issues raised by the current understanding of territories and urban identities, in order to read the changes and intervene on the city with new signs in a close relationship with intellectual and creative work.
For four months they took part in workshops held by artists and experts of public art, engaging in practices and poetics with different methodological approaches, and all sharing the common value of first hand experience of reality.
The first workshop was held by Stalker / Osservatorio Nomade, in which the researchers began mapping the metropolitan area, becoming thus traceurs. This term refers to the first people who experience and draw new lines of a path within the parkour - an urban discipline defined as "art of displacement", which tends to recognise places displaying a special vocations for spontaneous social life in contexts where distracted living is experienced on a daily basis.
Workshops alternated with numerous talks in which the traceurs listened to stories of professionals who live in close relationship with the territory. In order to build an idea of the city and the new citizens a methodology was used which intertwined the looks and positions of the artists/ tutors with those of the traceurs, the editors, the people who from time to time were either invited to speak or encountered en route.
All but a linear path, many were the occasions for discussion. If it is true that, as Paul Jedlowski once claimed, “experience is elusive”, indeed situa.to was confronted every day with that same elusiveness and strived to share a language which could decrypt and contain the complexities which draw the idea of a city in the historical framework of the new millennium’s first decade. The aim was to share and speak a common language built with an unusual vocabulary, and carefully selecting the concepts around which to embroider a network of words with meanings which gradually became understandable by all, together with precise techniques of visual approach to reality.
In order to make new experiences it is necessary to abandon certainties, functions, roles and in the attempt to shift one’s position one should never take oneself along: from the real to the virtual, from the city to the open landscapes, from the public to the private, from the individual to the community, from what is static to what flows and vice versa.
And it is precisely that “vice versa” on which situa.to placed its focus; in that situation of close distance, in that sense of disorientation which became almost ordinary as time passed. Experience dwells where the beaten track is left in favour of uncertain spaces where an attempt to move between the detail and the context is made and welcomed. Today this practice is a dense network of relationships with people and places, and that is no small achievement.
The traceurs have started exploring the metropolitan area with a new meaning to words, a list of names and places, reading the flow and composition of energy, attempting to understand some of the urgent needs of some areas or identifying the right spot to offer greater visibility of expression, especially young people’s given the rapidly aging context.
In the vagueness of the contemporary city there is an urge for care, for practicing the ear and the eye which remains dormant and that situa.to was capable of putting into practice through different times, means and methods – e.g. urban drifting, observation of maps, by collecting images and documents from archives or by diving into a serious game of identity - each time preparing to be surprised. Through these practices, which accompanied the workshops Stalker / Osservatorio Nomade, Gennaro Castellano / Reporting System, Bernardo Giorgi and Cinzia Cozzi, Armin Linke, situa.to has addressed issues for which there are no established theories, teaching methodologies or tested approaches.
The contemporary city is on unstable grounds, the traceurs’ paces were uncertain but constant and through them the place was experienced and understood by taking into account the complex relationship with the sense of self in relation to the other people, honing an interpretation and narrative methodology.
The common vocabulary, workshops, meetings and urban explorations were thus the means to enable a kind of training open to experimentation, in which every possible interpretation and narrative is generated mainly by knowledge and context reading.
Thirty pairs of eyes not completely confident yet certainly more aware, have contributed to give shape to an extensive survey in 23 districts and 8 municipalities of the metropolitan area: from the conurbation south of Nichelino and Moncalieri to the one west of Collegno, Grugliasco and Rivoli, up to Venaria and Settimo’s radial satellites to the northern end of Torino and the hills of Chieri. situa.to tried to understand each contexts’ very own reasons isolating each meaning, understanding and giving place to spontaneous germination on and around which to create a community of citizens.
Many of the expressive energies were found by the traceurs in the above mentioned “vice versa”, that place where the city is without existing yet; in that area which has escaped the one reason it had to exist and lays defying both the infinite urbanization and the market laws. Places that stand out as opportunities, as strips of city in a permanent state of waiting, shifting between the suspended lanes of highways and the administration boundaries of municipalities located in the nearest outskirts of the metropolitan area.
Urban areas overlooking vast natural landscapes which still recall their rural past. Barca, Lesna suburb, the city around the banks of river Sangone, barriera di Lanzo, river Stura’s banks, and yet again, different and unprecedented suburbs, many of which are unexpectedly all within the heart of historic districts: Parella, Pozzo Strada, borgata Vittoria, Lucento, Cenisia, Crocetta, San Paolo, Mirafiori Nord. Places where people’s outdoor lives take place in spontaneous meeting areas, terrains vagues, small gardens where the odd competition over a bench steps away from the passing traffic can happen; all around miles of walls, fences, barriers, security cameras, no trespassing proscriptions and private roads, barriers that shape urban identity giving away a widespread sense of suspicion and control. The vice versa lives in those areas: the effort of imagining what lies beyond the walls, gates, borders; of peeping through those physical and imaginary cracks, in spaces either abandoned or without a specific function, and perceiving something not quite visible to the naked eye.
The first research results have produced dozens of proposals for new signs, places and situations with a potential, which we have called situa - the definition of a fun place in a teens’ slang - found through "live recordings" of thinking the city. Situations generated from the experience, imagination and desire, thought of as the founding acts of the rebirth of public space based on the aware commitment of old, new or even just temporary citizens.
Each situation requires different kinds of intervention: works of public art, micro-architectures, networks of people, actions, services. For example by making the coach shelters located in corso Vittorio Emanuele II more hospitable; offering an identity and a meeting place for young people who live at Barca (boat in Italian) by building with them a boat there where once lived the boatmen; transforming the walls of Mirafiori in the written pages of a new story; by installing a webcam where rivers Po and Dora Riparia merge; transforming the ruins of Filadelfia stadium into an ex-voto shrine; imagining with the body-shop mechanics of borgata Lesna a psychomagic act; designing a district’s display on the water tower in Lucento; bringing back storks in the pond in Falchera; sewing with the women of Fiat Settimo Village an arpilleras as a theatre curtain; acquainting the public with the rabbit garden in via Bardonecchia.
Straddling the physical and the imagination spheres, situato’s way of experiencing the city comes forward as a constant exercise combining observation, interpretation and actions of reestablishment of the public space intended as a real possibility to act through a concrete sense of responsibility towards the city and those who live there.

situa.to/Your city has been conceived to:
In an attempt to rethink and conceive, with the aid of the young generations, a new image of the territory, with special attention to the environment, quality of life and new forms of citizenship, situa.to/Your city aims at investigating an ever-moving city with in mind the idea of turning Turin into a model to connect to other creative projects and good practices already existing in other European and non-European cities.
situa.to/Your city aims at:
situa.to/Your city is divided in two phases:
The training course (18th March – 30th May 2010) is based on macro-areas of reflection with special attention to work, environment and new forms of citizenship - the same themes which will be tackled during a cycle of talks. The course will be introduced by a presentation held by the curators on 18th and 19th March.
Workshops will take place from 10am to 6pm on the following days:
The talks will be held from 5am to 8pm on the following days:
During the second phase of situa.to/Your city (June-July 2010), the participants will follow, with the curators, a working schedule involving field research focusing on determining two case studies (places, situations and/or urban stories) for each participant. Starting from data collected during the field research the participants will draft project proposals regarding the interventions that need to be carried out in the city. To carry out the research each participant will be given a 1.500,00 Euro (pre-tax) grant. Of all the submitted projects an institutional jury panel will choose those which can actually be put into effect at a later phase.
The research work carried out by the participants during the entire situa.to/Your city time will be published on the web in form of texts, videos, sound files etc., with the ultimate objective of recounting the urban tissue, mainly in the sense of process, as a sign of the tension which crops out as much in the fragmentation of the contemporary work as in the organisation of its spaces.
Lorenzo Romito – Rome-based - is among the founders of Stalker a collective of artists and architects established in the mid-90s which carries out researches and actions on the territory focusing on the areas on the margin and on the urban emptiness under their transformation process. Such investigations branch out onto different levels, the practicability, representation and project of these spaces, which Stalker defines Territori Attuali (Current Territories, trans.). In this realm Stalker has carried out many different crossovers and “transurbanza” (an innovative exploration around the city, trans.) actions, in the interstices of cities such as Rome, Milan, Turin, Paris, Berlin, Miami, Seoul. Since 2001 Stalker has promoted a Nomadic observatory, the Osservatorio Nomade, a trans-disciplinary network which integrates knowledge and languages capable of picking up, by means of looks and cross relationships, the submerged aspects regarding the complexity of the metropolitan territory. The modality by which this is carried out by the Osservatorio Nomade is “experimental, based on exploratory of listening, relational, convivial and recreational spatial practices activated by devices of creative interaction with the investigated environment, with both the inhabitants and the memory archives”. Stalker have taken part to several exhibitions and preeminent international shows, among which the Biennale di Architettura di Venezia in 2000 and 2004, the Biennale di Tirana in 2001, Manifesta 3 in Lubijana and Mutations a Bordeaux in 2000.

Gennaro Castellano is a Milan-based artist, who founded in 2004 together with Antonella Annecchiarico, a public administration manager, a non profit association - Reporting System - which promotes creative processes in the public space. Among its main projects are: Zingonia: Arte Integrazione Multiculture (1999-2002), a cross-cultural mediation project carried out through art with the communities of immigrants resident in Ciserano in the Zingonia industrial area, between Milan and Bergamo, winner of the the Minimum Prize 2003 assigned by Cittadellarte Fondazione Pistoletto on the occasion of the exhibition, Arte Pubblica, with the Lo spazio delle relazioni; Voyages croisès (2003-2005), a collective space where to experience a culture and disciplinary confrontation presented at Seville’s second biennial (Escenas Fantasmas en la Sociedad Global), produced in collaboration with the group of artists from Senegal, Huit Facettes Interaction (2005); Cartello n°1 interculture (2006) a work based on the team up with associations and groups from different countries, based on the territory of Milan; Drafting Emotions (2007) a journey through the languages of contemporary art, a method to communicate and exchange with the youth universe, a research and experimentation path revolving around new generational geographies, carried out in Milan and Hamburg.
Bernardo Giorni is an artist based in Siena and Berlin who investigates the border between the author and the users and the limit separating art and life. His works, often created in team with his partner, Cinzia Cozzi, make an attempt to circumscribe a communal space where the artists and anyone else can connect through a (mental or material) exploration itinerary throughout the places, territories and different cultures. Between Dresden & Prague (2002), is the most complex project curated by Giorgi on the border between former Eastern Germany and the Czech Republic, which involved fifteen cities, three countries, twenty-three artists and different institutional partners on the concept of border. In recent years, owing to the project Patterns (carried out from 2004 in Turin, Kostrzyn in Poland and Istanbul), generated by the idea of body superimposition and coincidence – a boundary with the outside world – with that of territory, he has homed in on activities with active ways within the area of territorial animation, knowledge awareness and diffusion on themes of social character, reflection and social transformation through art and creative methods (from cartography to the dress). Bernardo Giorgi has exhibited his works, amongst other places, at Palazzo delle Papesse (2001), at Dresden’s Kunsthaus (2002), at Fondazione Pistoletto, at the 50th Biennale di Venezia in the Utopia Station section (2003) and at Helsinki’s Kiasma (2006).
Armin Linke – Milan and Berlin-based – documents phenomena related to globalisation and its social and political effects. He is working on a progressively growing archive on the different human activities and new natural and artificial landscapes as a photographer and filmmaker. Just to mention a few among his most important exhibitions: Architecture Invisible, Centre Culturel Suisse, Paris (2005), Trans.it, National Museum of Contemporary Art, Bucarest (2006), Armin Linke, Klosterfelde, Berlin e Flash Cube, Leeum-Samsung Museum of Art, Seul (2007), Armin Linka Concrete and Samples, Museum für Gegenwartkunst, Siegen. He has taken part in many international exhibitions, such as the 50th Biennale di Venezia (2003), the 25th Bienal de São Paulo (2002), the 1st Bienal de Valencia (2001). He has also displayed his works at Accademia Americana, Rome (2003) and Museo Nazionale delle Arti del XXI secolo, Rome (2003). His multimedia installation on the contemporary Alpine landscape was awarded by the 9th Biennale di Architettura di Venezia and by Architecture Film Festival in Graz. He is guest professor at Hochschule für Gestaltung in Karlsruhe and at the Visual Arts Design and Production Course (CLASAV) at the IUAV in Venice and is also a researcher affiliate researcher at MIT Visual Program in Cambridge, Massachussets.

IZMO is a cultural association founded in 2006 in Turin with the aim of setting up researches and projects formulated during six-years’ activity of the sphere-group: an informal meeting involving architects and engineers. The field in which the association works is the territory: a place of relationships between the people and the space. Their objective is to improve the relationship between the inhabitants and the surrounding buildings, the use of the spaces and the social relationships. IZMO stimulates and causes changes shared by those involved through installations, software, objects and architecture, up to the urban design. Its design method draws on the complexity theories: observation, intervention and their adjustment according to the extent of what has been observed. In order to propel the interpersonal exchange, social relationships, analysis of the territory and forward-thinking, IZMO is capable of triggering active processes and using new media, especially those improving communication. The name of the association roots back to its purposes and is inspired by the assonance with the word isthmus: a fine line of earth which unites territories and organisms.
