oa Spatial Practices, Craftsmanship, and Empowerment. On the Collaborative Project on Roma Building Culture in Dortmund

image of Spatial Practices, Craftsmanship, and Empowerment. On the Collaborative Project Faţadă/Façade on Roma Building Culture in Dortmund

Kerstin Meincke's contribution to this volume focuses on the interplay between building practices, migration, and empowerment by analysing Christoph Wachter's and Mathias Jud's collaborative artistic project “Faţadă/Façade” on Roma building culture, realised in the city of Dortmund between 2018 and 2020 in the framework of Interkultur Ruhr. Besides analysing the project and its transfer from the workshop to the public space and into the museum, it also touches upon memorial culture around migration within urban planning strategies.

Keywords: Architectural Models ; Collective artwork ; Crafts ; Entanglement between countries of Origin and Arrival ; group stigmatization ; Mallinckrodt Street workshop ; Mathias Jud and Christoph Wachter ; Memory practices and Memory Culture around Migration ; Migration ; Monument ; Nordstadt district ; Roma Palaces ; Wall painting
