Abstract
Fallen Fruit is not your average collective. Proactively smearing boundaries and intervening in contemporary scenarios, they are all about democracy in the purest sense of the term. By looking after all citizens, FF believes that the world can become massively better. The logic makes sense. Seeing the public sphere as belonging to the people, they simply wish to exploit its potential, such as by planting loads of food-bearing plants whose fruits can be freely enjoyed by all. This idea extends to the presentation of works of art and artefacts based on fruit, and the meaningful dialogue associated therewith, as well as to programmes that empower people. With 10 years of projects under their belt, FF has provided a viable working model.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
