Addressing the subject of public art from the artist's perspective, and emphasising process as well as product, Re views explores artistic practice beyond the studio, addressing the importance of research time for artists, the relationship between artist and audience, collaboration between artists and other design professionals, and the contribution artists can make to the future of our towns and cities"--Page 4 of cover.
