Description:
Absolutely Public - Crossover: Art and Architecture focuses on Public Art in Australia, and illustrates site-specific installations throughout the urban fabric of Brisbane, Australia and Berlin, Germany. It features critical essays by Jennifer Taylor, Scott McQuire, John Hartley, Helen Armstrong, Michael Keniger, Geert Lovink, Sandra Kaji O'Grady, Sand Helsel, Steffen Lehmann, Andrew McNamara, Sheona Thomson, and Cathy Smith.Some of the installations use prominent, public locations beyond the confines of gallery space and some use little known spaces such as laneways, or undercroft riverside spaces. The illustrated works present a view of the city, context and landscape that is new. Absolutely Public demonstrates the potential of reciprocal relationships between Architects and Artists and their common terrain, inter-disciplinary crossovers and asks how the artist draws inspiration from architecture, and vice- versa, and how might architects and artists work together?
