Whether part of a regeneration programme or on a green field site, today public art projects form a key part of any planning process. But how can artists and curators lay down a creative precedent that shapes future development? How can cultural programming build bridges between existing and new communities? And can temporary projects infiltrate the public realm in ways that traditional permanent public art cannot?
This Public Art Forum has been organised in partnership with the Programmes in Spatial Practice and Culture & Enterprise, Central Saint Martins.
The event is free to attend but RSVP is essential rsvp@contemporaryartsociety.org
