This book explores the collaboration between artist and client in relation to featuring art in a public space. It includes written descriptions and approximately 200 illustrations which identify artists, architects, artworks and their settings. The content focuses on the level of collaboration between artists, architects and the public with attention to the impact their projects have on the communities where they are installed. Public art is unique because it requires several groups, often with different interests, to work collaboratively in seeking inventive design solutions. With the original vision of the artist, along with the collaboration of the architect and community, there is a deeper understanding of the work and a sense of public ownership. Through this process, the finished work has a greater visual and intellectual impact. The material has been compiled by the internationally renowned public artist and academic Professor Garrison Roots. Each artist and contributing programme
