In this massive book-the first of its kind-over 50 authors take a critical look at this theme: the result is a fascinating compendium of opinions and statements, experiences and reports. The wide-ranging material by curators, art historians, and artists, including Vito Acconci, Daniel Buren, Dan Graham, Hans Haacke, Jenny Holzer, Rebecca Horn, Ilya Kabakov, Kasper Konig, Joseph Kosuth, Richard Serra, Harald Szeemann, Lawrence Weiner, and many more, is divided into sections entitled Art and the City, Art and Archtecture, Art and History, Art and Society, and Art and the Public. At over 600 pages with over 250 illustrations, Public Artpresents an unprecedented abundance of both written and visual information on a vital topic in contemporary art.Matzner, Florian is the author of 'Public Art', published 2001 under ISBN 9783775790734 and ISBN 377579073X.
