Public Art

So what exactly is public art? Public art is art not found in museums. It is art that is found outdoors and art that represents the public. Some older cities have older monuments and statues where as newer cities have more modern works of art as monuments. Public art consists of sculptures, buildings (architecture), monuments, chalk drawings (like what we have here on campus) and much more. I believe that public art is a way to show people what is out there in terms of art. If they are not able to go and see what artworks are in museums, then at least they can see art through public art, which is free for them to see.
