Description
After having repaired the walls of New York, Venice or Berlin, the artist Jan Vormann attacked the repair of the walls of Besançon with Lego® during the opening weekend of the ninth edition of the festival, with a Dispatchwork workshop for children and adults. Many festival-goers participated in this playful workshop by sliding multi-coloured Lego® into the interstices and cracks of the city walls.
