On 1-30 September 2023, City Space Architecture’s headquarters Museo Spazio Pubblico hosted the exhibition of the 2022 edition of the European Prize for Urban Public Space, a biennial initiative promoted by the Centre for Contemporary Culture of Barcelona (CCCB). The CCCB is a multidisciplinary cultural centre that deals with the key challenges of contemporary society through different languages and formats, with an extensive programme that includes major thematic exhibitions, series of conferences and literary meetups, film screenings and festivals.

The exhibition of the European Prize for Urban Public Space has already travelled in Europe and beyond (you can read more here). This is the first time the exhibition is hosted in Bologna, on the occasion of the first workshop of the Public Space Academy promoted by City Space Architecture and taking place at Museo Spazio Pubblico.

The opening of the exhibition of the European Prize for Urban Public Space on Friday, September 1st, was welcomed by the Deputy Mayor of Bologna, Anna Lisa Boni and introduced by Elisabet Goula, Head of the Prize.
The exhibition was set up in the indoor space of Museo Spazio Pubblico and in the outdoor space of Il Giardino, the adjacent public garden managed by City Space Architecture in the framework of a cooperation agreement with the Municipality of Bologna for the care and regeneration of urban commons.
