Public art is defined as art that is placed outside where everyone can see it.
What is 'art' is up to the photographer and the viewer. It can range from something as large and old as the Sphinx to something as bold and new as graffiti. I shall be looking for something impressive, unusual or perhaps rather inconspicuous.

This one would come under the 'impressive' category.


Henry Moore's 'Knife Edge' - from a child's point of view.


..and this one was an unexpected delight in the woodland area of a local park.


Good luck.
Jean

A live addition to the sculpture


Flying cranes
