public sculptures
Public sculptures are three-dimensional artworks displayed in outdoor spaces, accessible to everyone. They can be made from various materials, such as metal, stone, or wood, and often reflect the culture, history, or values of a community. These sculptures can take many forms, including abstract designs, realistic figures, or representations of local landmarks.
These artworks serve multiple purposes, such as beautifying public spaces, encouraging community engagement, and sparking conversations among viewers. Many cities have dedicated areas for public art, where sculptures can be found in parks, plazas, or along streets. Notable examples include Christo and Jeanne-Claude's The Gates in Central Park and Alberto Giacometti's Walking Man.
