Housing Crisis: Shock Value Interventions

Office of Rules and Norms: Office Hours In response to the current housing crisis, the Shock Value Fellowship has launched a series of artistic interventions in the streets of Montreal. Come discuss with the artists the follow-ups to the urban projections Concrete Capital and discover what’s in store for Summer 2021! Using art as a tool for subversion, pedagogy and decision-making, the Shock Value Fellowship highlights and critiques the dominance of financial mechanisms in real estate development and unearths non-financial forms of value with public audiences, leading to the development of rent-free residencies as an economic instrument for non-financial value creation. Throughout this process, the theme of “value” is used as a support beam to enact public interventions around the city: whether on the construction site of a future luxury condo mega-project, on vacant lots, or in cyberspace. These interventions attempt to engage a wider public in challenging financialized conceptions of land, speculate on the development of new value frameworks and provide grounds for the de-commodification of land.
