2001: A public space odyssey is an exhibition that was shown at mupis throughout Amsterdam. Artists have been asked to visualize an idea for art in the city’s public space. Hortus in the Bijlmer is a proposal for an international plant garden in the Bijlmermeer, Amsterdam-Southeast. All plants and trees come from the countries of origin of residents. In 2001 there were 127 nationalities.
Hortus in the Bijlmer was later developed into the Bijlmer Tree Garden.
