Abstract
This paper presents an overview of RE/F/r.ACE, a participative performance media art event in public urban space by Merja Puustinen, Andy Best, and Victor X. Situating the project within an art historical context, the paper discusses the social and political coding of the architectonic urban environment, and the rules and norms relating to everyday use of public space. The question is asked whether a poetic artwork can actually trigger emotional, intellectual or even behavioural awareness in an active participant, such that an artwork like RE/F/r.ACE, by activating local inhabitants, has direct influence on change in their social environment.
