Radical City inc.
Discover the most beautiful gardens, hidden nature and art on the bike tour through Amsterdam West. The route starts from our gallery Transnatural with the exhibition Radical City inc.. Here, artists and designers give visions and insights into the city of the future. The point of departure of the exhibition is to create an urban environment in which humans, flora, fauna, environment, objects and architecture constitute one balanced system.
From Transnatural, set course for the Erasmus Park. In the park you will find the Miracle Garden. Here, special flowers and plants are growing that not only contribute to the biodiversity of the surrounding neighbourhood, but also have been beautifully captured by visual artist and photographer Elspeth Diederix. In a tunnel under the A10 near Sloterdijk Station, you end up in the light-reflecting artwork Mirror Mirror by Children of the Light, a place of wonder both inside and outside off the beltway.
Gather inspiration for climate proof lifestyles and ways of working together as a community at Amsterdam Vertical, Spaarndammerhart - de Verbinding and Klimaattuin Slotermeer. If you feel like rolling up your own sleeves, you can pick your own bouquet at Pluktuin Lokale Bloemetjes or seasonal fruits at the Fruittuin van West. Finally, experience nature barefooted at the Natureluur or spot rare animals in one of the last pieces of wild nature in Amsterdam, the Lange Bretten.
