Tekst achterflap

Waking up to the idea of a post-growth society, Rotterdam Ripresa presents a city that aims to amend instead of renew, accepting not just the pleasant past, but also the impudent present. To find the new in the old may well be the most sustainable thing of all. Can a city change while remaining the same?
Rotterdam Ripresa adopts an alternative method towards the production of new visions for the city. An urbanism of fragmentary intervention as a cadavre exquis where authorship is deluded rather than distilled. A collection of Future Fragments for the Neoliberal City completing found ensembles that never were, but always could have been.
