| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses potential methods for getting "art out of the white walled galleries and into...outdoor environments - into parks." Suggests that "art can act as a lure, drawing people to a new park, to a specific site or to a distinctive feature. Art is also a tool for learning." Suggests potential considerations to take when adding art to parks including funding, site specific considerations, community involvement, security, functionality, quality, materials, and weathering. Also lists potential benefits to having art in parks, suggesting that art draws "people to a site"; "can be a useful tool in getting messages and stories across"; and "the process and the outcome can be healing [and] celebratory." |
