Join Nancy J. Reid and Lisa D. Smith, the mother-daughter travel team and publishers of Big Blend Radio & TV Magazine and Parks & Travel Magazine, for Big Blend Radio’s ‘Toast to the Arts Show’. On this episode, contemporary figurative artist Victoria Chick discusses the history and benefits of art in public spaces.
Art in pubic spaces has a history that dates back to antiquity. Today, the art produced for public spaces can have a wide range of subject matter and materials that can roughly be categorized into environmental art, traditional figurative sculpture, mixed media sculpture and mosaic, mural painting, art that is site specific, and art that is interactive.See Victoria's article on public art on NationalParkTraveling.com
