“Rethinking. Climate Change – Cultural Change.” The juggling artist Stefan Sing set artistic accents on this subject, with Urban Juggling at five locations in Herten. Art does not only take place in museums, but also in public space and everyday life. Sing‘s performance always adapted to the locations and the existing conditions, and metaphorically dealt with climate and cultural change.
The five locations encouraged people to rethink climate and cultural change in a variety of ways. The artistic interventions made it possible for the public to experience familiar urban space in a new way, and to engage directly with the issues raised by climate and cultural change. The connecting element of the five locations is the mining tradition and the reactivation of these areas – also with regard to climate and cultural change. This was addressed by Stefan Sing’s three-part juggling performance at all the locations.
