Edible Park by Nils Norman
2010–ongoing The Hague, Netherlands Commissioning agent/collaborator: Stroom den Haag, Foodprint project Norman considers his practice to be critical public art, investigating the pos- sibility of creating change through disruptive and experimental models and methodologies in urban environments. For Edible Park, the British artist col- laborated with a range of art, architecture, gardening and food activist organi- zations, and community volunteers to experiment with socio-ecological permaculture ideas and gardening methods in a public green space. The proj- ect is conceived as an experiment with a sustainable alternative to the current (continued) H.S. Lineberry and A. Wiek 317 way of treating such urban spaces and partially as a response to a grandiose development plan by architect Rem Koolhaas for a high-impact “spontaneous city” that would have included an amusement park, beach, skyscrapers, and a Formula 1 race track. Edible Park functions as a gathering space for the neighborhood residents, visitors, and schools, with a pavilion, playground, educational demonstrations, and shared work space managed by a local gar- dening association. Under their auspices, the garden has begun to grow into surrounding areas.

The Superkilen urban park has a series of 100 objects and pieces of furniture proposed by people representing more than 50 nationalities in the surrounding neighborhoods. 1 The artists called for submissions, selected five proposals, and then traveled to Palestine, Spain, Thailand, Texas, and Jamaica to acquire the specific objects or plan their design. Commissioned by the City of Copenhagen, in collaboration with architectural firms, the artists proposed and implemented a new system of community input in urban planning and completely reinvented the approved furniture for city parks.
