Abstract:

Panel: Public Art of the Sustainable City

How can pub­lic art uti­lize new tech­nolo­gies to cre­ate eco­log­i­cal in­fra­struc­ture that con­tributes to both the aes­thet­ics and sus­tain­abil­ity of cities? In this talk, I will give ex­am­ples of in­no­v­a­tive “green” Pub­lic Art Mas­ter Plans in North Amer­ica that have been de­vel­oped in the last decade, and dis­cuss spe­cific artists and pro­jects that both har­ness and ex­press the po­ten­tial of tech­nol­ogy to ad­dress global re­source con­ser­va­tion.
