An outdoor pool? In Hart van Zuid, at the Annie M.G. Schmidt square in Rotterdam, a functional artwork has been launched in the shape of… a swimming pool – just before the start of the Eurovision Song Contest. Not a real one of course, but an artistic interpretation that serves as an interactive meeting place for the inhabitants of Rotterdam and visitors. The Splash, a collaboration between Arttenders and artist Cindy Bakker, is inspired by the natural appeal of paddling pools. It is a place where functionality, art, spatial development, and policy solutions come together through social design.00aActive Public Spaces00aNo density 00a Experimental installations,00aTerritory and mobility00aUrban Paradigms05aRotterdam, The Netherlands05aThe Netherlands40uhttps://urbannext.net/the-splash/zAccess to info
