In pursuit of the competition for European Capital of Culture one believes, that the chosen candidate will be the best possible considering the review and selection is always subject to predetermined rules. However in the past, there were known cases, when the project - looking good on paper - failed in the difficult process. I started to wonder about two things: what if the winner city fails to sustain its victory in the end, and how do the unsuccessful candidate cities do?
