+Teachermom Posted August 16, 2005 Posted August 16, 2005 These would be permanent pieces of art, not plays in the park, concerts, etc. I'm thinking primarily of statues, but the category include mosaics and murals.
+DomHeknows Posted August 16, 2005 Posted August 16, 2005 agree - at present the insect sculpture is a bit limiting.
+chaosmanor Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 I like this idea, but I( would propose that this perhaps be split into two. One would be representational pieces, art that actually looks like something. The other would be abstract, art that is free-form. This sort of publci art is usually sculpture, and perhaps this could be broken down a bit further. Still, I like the general idea, especially as I was about to propose an "Abstract Sculpture" category when I saw this thread
+allieballie Posted August 21, 2005 Posted August 21, 2005 Excellent suggestion as I have an idea for one which would go into this category! However, am I not sure if separating it into abstract and non-abstract sculture would work - I say this because there may be times when it is difficult to place a sculpture into either group. The sculptures I would be thinking about placing are a group of three - one is abstract, one isn't and the other is sort-of half abstract!
+Happy Landins Posted August 23, 2005 Posted August 23, 2005 excellent idea - this would provide a very useful inventory of art objects, though I reckon there would be quite a bit of discussion as to what actually consitutes art. For example, we have a nice bronze mural on the side of our local supermarket. Art? Probably yes. Also some carved trees in a local park. Art?? I guess . . .
