Public Art, Contextual Art

Fiteiro Cultural (Culture Kiosk), 1998, is a Public and Contextual Art work created by the artist Fabiana de Barros. It is a nomadic structure at disposal for artists, according to desires or needs of the community. This is what I mean as a "social sculpture". This art piece has been settled in several situations around the world: João Pessoa, Athenas, Sion, New York, Havana, Yerevan, São Paulo, Lisbon, Dunkerque, Larissa, Milan, Geneva, Bienne, Bern and Second Life. The FITEIRO CULTURAL Second Life is an on going project, the artists may create art works that will be presented together with the setting of Fiteiro Cultural SL in specific places in Second Life during special events and performances.
