Block 04 Occasional Cities (April 2007)
Block 04 examines contemporary paradigms of temporality in urban areas through local Israeli and global projects and texts. This volume is a part of "Occasional cities. Post-It city and other forms of temporality", an international project that sets out to investigate the different overlapping uses of urban territory, through the perspectives offered by architecture, urban design and the visual arts.

A collaboration with different art institutions across Europe, hosted by the CCCB (Centre de Cultura Contempor?nia de Barcelona) and CASM Centre d'Art Santa Monica in Barcelona and includes a traveling exhibition. Initiators of the project are Mart? Peran and Giovanni La Varra. Israeli occasional forms of temporality quickly become stasis; temporal spaces become built facts in an environment that exists as a field of conflicting agendas between physical and political boarders.

Block 04 includes the Post It project.
Block addressed the question "what is your temporary city" to 150 artists and architects. The answer to this question placed on the format of the square yellow Post It sticker that will be distributed through all of the issue's pages.
