Inspired by the ideas of Marcel Duchamp and Akasegawa Genpei, this final issue of The City is Ours series explores the concept of “involuntary sculptures.” These are objects and structures in our cities, not created by artists, but emerging from everyday interactions and casual arrangements.

By recognizing and appreciating these unnoticed objects, we can transform our perception, finding unexpected beauty and meaning in the most familiar urban landscapes. What hidden masterpieces will you discover today?

The first section of this issue presents a photo essay that analyzes various types of objects with a sculptural quality. The second section features a collection of diverse interpretations, where artists, photographers, and observers working with found objects provide an inspiring overview of the many ways these unintentional objects can be perceived and interpreted.
