BALTIC Bites: Simon & Tom Bloor

Publication Date 23 Apr 2019
Description

THE CITY IS WHERE WE’RE GOING NEXT explores artists Simon and Tom Bloor’s ongoing interest in the urban environment and the potential of cities as spaces for play. The exhibition takes its title from American landscape architect and urban playground designer M. Paul Freidberg’s idea of ‘enjoying the city – taking landscape architecture away from this preconceived notion that the city is a hostile place… to me the city is where we're going next.’
