This volume presents interviews with the people who create or experience public art - from an artist who mounted three bronze sculptures in the South Bronx to the bureaucrat who led the fight to have them removed; and from an artist who describes his work as a "cancer" on architecture to a pair of architects who might agree with him. The 20 interviews are divided into four parts: controversies in public art; experiments in public art as architecture and urban planning; dialogues on dialogue-based public art projects; and public art for public health.
