Listen now
Description
Everyone’s a critic when it comes to public art – whether we think it’s an eyesore or a sight for sore eyes, we all have an opinion. In this episode, we step out of the galleries and onto the streets, to find out exactly what it takes to make public artwork. We hear straight from the people bringing art to the public realm; from renowned artist, Simon Periton, to Yorkshire Sculpture Park curator, Helen Pheby. Travelling from open air parkland to the depths of London’s underground, we explore the process, purpose and power of public art, and get a sneak peek of London’s soon-to-be biggest public art collection yet.
