Art, Space and the City (Hardcover, Reissue)

Art in the liveable city is subject to the competing needs of aesthetics and social responsibilty. At the same time the making, management and mediation of public art - art outside its conventional locations in museums and galleries - is shaping our urban futures. Art, Space and the City explores how art and design can contribute to our urban futures. This book explores creative tensions in the public realm, focusing on two roles for art; as decoration within re-visioned urban design, and as a social process of criticism and engagement. A wealth of striking images and examples from London, New York, Boston, Seattle and elsewhere illustrate and inform the text.
