public sculptures
Art in plazas
Public sculptures are three-dimensional artworks installed in shared spaces—parks, plazas, building exteriors, and streetscapes.
Unlike museum pieces, they're meant to be encountered casually by passersby rather than sought out by visitors.
The category ranges from bronze statues of historical figures to abstract steel forms to interactive installations.
The city commissioned several public sculptures for the new waterfront development.
