RADURA comes to life in the residual space lingering between the Vattenfall Wärme power plant (which has run the heating business in Berlin since 1927), the ICE Werk train maintenance plant (with an operational area of about 625,000 square metres), and Funkhaus Berlin (former headquarters of DDR’s Rundfunk, the state radio and broadcasting company of the German Democratic Republic).

We are accustomed to thinking of cities starting from their fullness of solid constructions.

RADURA is an experiment of radical politics that intends to let us reflect together on the theme of the ‘urban clearing’, of the negative space, of the liminal, the provisional, the Third Landscape, the residue. As a research in progress, RADURA involves decolonising and anti-capitalist practices that are designed for bodies to relate with the landscape they cross.
