Public Space, Site, Landscape

Public art has increasingly begun to expand in possibility and form. Creative interventions in public space can be realized to imaginatively engage a community's sense of “place” or “well-being” into the work itself. These sorts of projects relate to the Area of Study called Community and Locality. SAIC students create temporary or permanent interventions in public space both within and outside the school community. Various departments are engaged in the creative dialogue with alternative and public spaces for exhibition and practice in specific courses. Please see your advisor to discuss related course listings that pertain to Public Space.
