One day sculpture

Doherty, Claire; Cross, David

Abstract

Conceived as both a document and critical expansion of the year-long One Day Sculpture temporary public art series in New Zealand (www.onedaysculpture,org.nz), the book opens with an anthology of newly commissioned texts which expand conventional notions of encounter, performativity, publicness, photography, materiality, space and place in relation to contemporary public art. Set within this critical context, are in-depth considerations of each of the 20 One Day Sculpture projects, forming a new dimension to recent discussions on situation-specific art practices and commissioning public art for the public realm.
