Face Your World, Museumpark
Duration: 11.2006 – 08.2007 Location: Kunsthal, Rotterdam Participants: 2500 Visitors: people who pass through the Museumpark Number of Events: 1 From November 2006 till June 2007 over 2,500 children from Rotterdam schools participated in the Rotterdam version of the art project Face Your World. Rem Koolhaas agency OMA made a new design for the park but due to construction problems with the parking garage underneath the park the builders had to quit building months ago. With help of the specially developed Interactor software they changed the park next to the Kunsthal in a nice and exiting urban park. For this project the original location of the Museum Park was put in to the computer game as a 3D environment. This location was modified and reshaped by the participating children. Their vision for the future role and design of the Museum Park create possibly new input for the developments of plans for the location. From the 22nd of June till the 2nd of September 2007 a presentation of the outcome of the project and the ideas of the children could be seen on the fences surrounding the construction site. Face Your World Museum Park was located in the park between the Kunsthal and the Netherlands Architecture institute and Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam. Face Your World Museum Park was presented as part of the 2007 Rotterdam Architectural Biennale. 2006, Kunsthal, Rotterdam
