Measure Up is an Illegal Art project that invites us to compare ourselves with famous figures through brands with different heights and names made on door frames installed in ARTZ, encouraging public participation as a creative-collective experience.

At one time or another, we've all admired public figures, from movie stars and athletes, to activists, explorers, scientists and artists. Giants in their fields, they have adorned magazines and screens to be larger than the life inside our minds. But how big are they in real life? Are we up to them?

Measure Up is a project commissioned by Arte Abierto, which plays with the indicator of international childhood growth: the frame of the home door marked with centimeters. Along an outdoor path, wooden structures were placed, simulating these frames, each indicating the height and names of well-known personalities from culture, science or history, whom we admire or aspire to look like.

The intention was to put things into perspective and that, through their height, each participant could identify and create a bond with these characters.

Measure Up is active at ARTZ from October 12th to November 30th, 2019.
