Public program with performances, workshops, discussions, readings, walks
Curated by VASKOS (Vassilis Noulas & Kostas Tzimoulis) and Gigi Argyropoulou
Organized by The Eight, a critical institute for arts and politics, with the support of Greek Ministry of Culture

Hills and Fields is a peripatetic public program on Hills and Fields of Athens invite us to examine together the ephemeral habitations in public space under the current circumstances and explore the possibilities for intervention, resistance and joy. To reflect upon the emergent urban geographies and hegemonies and rethinking the relationship between art practice and mental health, architecture and pedagogy, poetry and urban praxis. A call for impromptu collective explorations in the public and in-between spaces of the city.
Performances, actions, discussions, talks, readings, picnic, interventions, walks and workshops for children and adults, seek to create a city-wide ephemeral intervention on Hills and Fields ; a call for repeated experimentations on the limits and uses of what is considered as the collective/shared spaces of the city.
