The Uses of Art in Public Space (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Lossau, Julia; Stevens, Quentin

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book links two fields of interest which are too seldom considered together: the production and critique of art in public space and social behaviour in the public realm. Case studies consider a broad range of public art, including commissioned and unofficial artworks, memorials, street art, street furniture, performance art, sound art, and media installations.
