detours

»detours« is a performative art series that lets you experience existing knowledge from a different perspective through mental diversions. Detours invites you to an alternative journey companion, offering small “detours,” mental redirections to critical questions of urban practice in an interactive and performative manner. This journey companion is a collaboration between Guerilla Architects, Berit Fischer, and Leon Klaßen.
The first and second »detours« took place within the context of the Urban Practice Weeks in 2022 and 2023.
