Summary:

"The North East of England boasts one of the greatest concentrations of recent public sculpture in Britain. It also contains an extraordinary variety of public monuments and sculpture of all ages. For the first time Public Sculpture of North-East England documents over 450 of these works with full details of their materials, physical condition, ownership and commissioning and also their use and interpretation at various, times in history. From this emerges a picture both of the development of public sculpture and monuments in the region and of the contribution these objects make to ideas of local identity."--BOOK JACKET.
