KAC (Kista Art City), a platform for participatory art, teaching, research and experiment with subjects related to public spaceand contemporary art practices located in Rinkeby-Kista\u2013Stockholm**<\/p>

KAC was located in Rinkeby-Kista, one of Stockholm\u2019s most expansive suburbs regarding to business, research and urban development. At the same time Rinkeby-Kista is one of the most segregated urban areas in Sweden. Here international businesses, research and urban development exist \u2013 next door to segregation and social problems. Thereby Rinkeby-Kista illustrates in many ways the division in society, in which different socioeconomic worlds are woven together and where the residents are separated from one another by invisible walls. A fundamental thought behind the project wasthat art can play a more prominent role in the development and understanding of the city. Not primarily as traditional public art\u2013 but as an autonomous opportunity for citizens to recreate, experiment and rethink the city and society as a collective, shared work.The questions that arosewithinthe project was thereby intimately connected with the individuals\u2019 democratic \u201cright\u201d to live, express themselves, use and influence the shaping of the city and their own identity.<\/p>

Cooperating partners: Wasakronan, Kista Science City, Interaktiva institutet, Rinkeby-Kista district administration, Kulturbryggan, Innovativ kultur, Megafonen, Kista bibliotek, Husby bibliotek, Beckmans designh\u00f6gskola, KTH-arkitektur och samh\u00e4llsbyggnad, Kista Mall,<\/em> and others.<\/p>

MEDBORGARCENTRUM (CITIZEN CENTER) 2002\u20132004, a proposal for a new public center in V\u00e5rby g\u00e5rd by Thomas Liljenberg and Anders Kr\u00fcger in collaboration with architects Erik Stenberg and Rajmo Voss, cityplanner Galip Bozkurt and model maker Lars Svensson.<\/p>

Medborgarcentrum was a proposal based on the idea of developing a new center in V\u00e5rby g\u00e5rd: a Citizen Center, in conjunction with V\u00e5rbyskolan, the existing Junior High School located in V\u00e5rby g\u00e5rd. The project started in 2002 in conjunction with the project KULTURKONTORET (initiated by Thomas Liljenberg 2002) and gradually developed in close dialogue with different people in V\u00e5rby g\u00e5rd and Huddinge County: inhabitants, local politicians and the headmaster of V\u00e5rbyskolan and many others.<\/p>

\/\u2026\u201dThe project proposes a transformation and rebuilding of V\u00e5rby skolan (the present Junior High School) into a culture and learning institute open for all citizens in the community. A central part of the proposal consists of a new four-storey glass building, centrally placed and integrated into the school. The building creates space and new conditions for bringing together various ongoing local initiatives, such as a local library, a Children’s Art Museum, a Citizen Center and a Cafeteria. The synergy between the activities brought together is the core of the project and its objective to highlight education and culture as the heart and future of V\u00e5rby g\u00e5rd\u201d\u2026\/ (excerpt from the presentation MEDBORGARCENTRUM, Liljenberg\/Kr\u00fcger, 2005)<\/p>

The various stages of the project were presented on several occasions and invited the inhabitants, local organisations and politicians to participate in the process. In the beginning of 2004, Medborgarcentrum was presented along with an architectural scale model at Demokratiforum, a political forum organised by County politicians and citizens of V\u00e5rby g\u00e5rd. Liljenberg and Kr\u00fcger had also included in their project team; architects Erik Stenberg and Rajmo Voss, city planner Galip Bozkurt, and model maker Lars Svensson. In 2005, the project also participated in the architectural competition that Huddinge municipality held regarding the development of V\u00e5rbyskolan and V\u00e5rby g\u00e5rd centrum.<\/p>

1978\u2013<\/p>

FIREWORK in collaboration with Leif Elggren<\/em>, Stockholm. Firework is the name of the group that Leif Elggren and Thomas Liljenberg founded in 1978 and under which they have put on several exhibitions, performances and sub-projects. As a result of the philosophical discussion engendered by the underlying essence of this work, a small publishing company, FIREWORK EDITION<\/em>, was started in 1979. It has since then brought out many books and other printed matter, multiples and records and put on a number of exhibitions, not only by the founders, but also as a result of collaboration with various other artists.<\/p>
