Opening of the exhibition Disco School of (Co)Habitation with curator Sara Božanić

Have you ever wondered what the future of our cities would look like if they were run by children? On 12 October, the exhibition Disco School, which brings together 8 schools from Austria, Slovenia, France, and Chile, opened at the Vinylograph Gallery in Vienna. Teachers, artists and children from Firmin, Murska Sobota, Vienna, and Valparaiso worked together to create a semi-fictional city plan showing their shared vision of (CO)HABITATION.

One of the curators was Sara Božanić, instructor of graphic design at VSŠ Academia. The exhibition was enriched by the (re)discovered project of Feri Novak, the architect who transformed Murska Sobota from a village into a city.
