Answers from Romania about the ideal city and art

THE IDEAL CITY

• As far as concerns the architectonical side, the Renaissance manifested only in some cities in Transylvania.

• There are exclusively isolated buildings and squares in the western city of Timisoara, Cluj and Oradea.

• The industrial revolution didn't manifest but very late in the Romanian territory. It wasn't until the end of the 19^th that the city development started to be influenced by massive industrialization.

• As yet there have been no projects about the "ideal city"

• The "ideal city" should be open to trade but definitely cut any industrial platforms. It should provide access to all kinds of artistic events, to sport bases, and there should be plenty of parks for people to go out walking and and not only. Such a city has to be open to all races and religions as well as to political manifestation of all sorts
