LOVETOUR:06 focused on the recognition of points of interest in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Felipe Ridao and Mariana Ures directors of LOGO, lived some days in an installation at the Art Biennial, and from there they look for interesting points in the city and surroundings. This points were identified with a rounded sticker with a number in it; afterwords in the walls of the installation we made a territorial map of the city including references to those points. Our log –images, and text– was shared in the website of the project.
In other hand, 20.000 rounded stickers were distributed from that installation inviting citizens to tag their own “points of lovetouristic interest” and to upload a picture of them in a map online.
The project also included a wide diffusion of the project in several mass medias of Porto Alegre (TV, radio, newspapers, internet), besides the ones from the Biennial.
