Talking Cities presents the project “Land for Free” – an utopian concept for a city in and between the existing cities of the Ruhr area – a city that comprises the realisation of individual dreams, made possible by the annexation of vacant lots in the Ruhr area. Land for Free aims to attract settlers from all over Europe for their project as part of „Essen for the Ruhr – European Capital of Culture 2010“. The project is shown in the exhibition with filmdocumentaries and interviews with the protagonists and supporters.
Land for free has been supported by Regionalverband Ruhr .
