Resumo

We all know the current status of architecture; therefore, there is an urgent need for a shift in thinking withwhich we face as what types of interventions. From allthem, the arts and culture are those that offer a greatervariety of solutions. Artistic creativity in response tourban obsolescence is one of the key interventions inour cities. Art should not be seen as a reflection of thesociety, but as a vehicle to build it and as the latest agentof urban creativity. Interventions in public space by different artists open the door to new thinking. With their ephemeral interventions transform the city and represent concepts of the utmost concern, as it happens tothe work of Christo and Spencer Tunick, between others. At another point, we might think that it’s a restricted work area, just open only to certain groups of thepopulation. This situation is not in that way. These actions started the germ of social power that it reactivatesthe city and its spaces and it is not exclusive to the artcollective. We distinguish actions of this nature withinour trade professionals, such as those of sin/estudio or estonoesunsolar. In that way, we refer to the competitions that encourage urban creativity in the Spanishgeography. These kinds of operations demonstrate thecommitment of all people, relationships are established.Appropriated relations for the city, some invisible actions.
