Maurer United Architects developed the concept for this mobile outdoor exhibition, which focused on the future of urban living.<\/p>\n<p>On 18 May 2001, the Urban Tetris invasion began: 25 walking display boxes appeared throughout the city \u2014 architectural elements inspired by the classic video game Tetris. Each box functioned as a miniature exhibition in which artists shared their vision of future living. The installation highlighted pressing issues such as housing shortages, urbanization, and livability in an accessible and engaging way.<\/p>\n<p>For four days, the elements traveled through the city, ultimately coming together at the Spaarndammerplantsoen in the Westerpark district. On 23 May, the display boxes were assembled into a monumental sculpture in front of the building \u2019t Schip, where the official opening took place.<\/p>\n<p>Mothership acted as curator and handled production and project management. Through their involvement, Urban Tetris became a dynamic public experience in which art and architecture playfully sparked debate about urban living.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row unlock_row_content=&#8221;yes&#8221; row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; inverted_device_order=&#8221;yes&#8221; content_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;881216&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_gallery el_id=&#8221;gallery-108155&#8243; medias=&#8221;115,117,119,118,120,122,121,116,124&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; media_items=&#8221;media|lightbox|original,icon,caption&#8221; screen_lg=&#8221;1000&#8243; screen_md=&#8221;600&#8243; screen_sm=&#8221;480&#8243; single_overlay_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8646,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[58],"class_list":["post-8645","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-community-art"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/spectrum.enterthemothership.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/8645","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/spectrum.enterthemothership.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/spectrum.enterthemothership.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/portfolio"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spectrum.enterthemothership.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spectrum.enterthemothership.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8645"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/spectrum.enterthemothership.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/8645\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9459,"href":"https:\/\/spectrum.enterthemothership.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio\/8645\/revisions\/9459"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spectrum.enterthemothership.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8646"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/spectrum.enterthemothership.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8645"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spectrum.enterthemothership.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_category?post=8645"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
