Abstract (en)

Indicates a new collaborative approach to public art, in which artists work closely with architects and planners. Focuses on two current projects, both comprising brick paving designs with granite focal points and planting, seating, and other environmental utilities: Tess Jaray's designs for Centenary Square in Birmingham and Valerie Jaudon's designs for Police Plaza in New York. Calls for a holistic approach to urban design, in which public sculptures will be part of a collaborative attempt to create whole places for people.
