In Running the City leading Australian curator Felicity Fenner profiles activity-based contemporary public art projects in Australia and around the globe - from running and cycling to guerrilla gardening. Including runners taking to the streets of Sydney's CBD in Runscape, and work No. 850 where athletes sprinted through the corridors of Tate Britain, Running the City reveals how public space can be activated in ways that are original, unexpected, fun and sometimes subversive. The theme of running - both in the context of athleticism and agency the projects examined in Running the City change the way we think about and inhabit our cities.
