City of Progress
Justin Bennett’s City of Progress is screened at Resonances, Beursschouwburg, Brussels
06/05/2026, 15-16h
Resonances is presented by a.pass, argos and Beursschouwburg in the context of OpenField, a five-day gathering organised and dedicated to the possible futures and autonomies of artistic research. The event is initiated by a.pass, in collaboration with many other art organisations.
Resonances revolves around urban interventions and public space. This film programme brings together various urban interventions by artists from the argos collection. By reframing their own perception through performance, critical engagement and joyous rebellion, the artists offer contrasting perspectives on public space.
