Changing Gellerup Park:Political interventions and aesthetic engagement in an exposed social housing area in Denmark
Some low-income social housing neighborhoods are undergoing radical transformations in Denmark. Classified as "ghettos" and "parallel societies," and marked by area-specific legislation, we identify a triple exposure in these neighborhoods. The residents are exposed to inequality, stigmatization, and discriminatory interventions. Parallel to this, cultural policies and programs have approached these same neighborhoods based on the assumption that they can be "elevated" through art. Drawing upon a broader research in art project in four social housing areas (Eriksson, Nielsen, Sørensen and Yates, 2022), this article focuses on Gellerup Park in Aarhus and considers how two site-specific art platforms address the site and time-specific conditions of the area, offering alternative relations and forms of engagement.
