Moderated by Desiree Gordon
Un/making a Monument brings together artists
Kenseth Armstead,
Olu Oguibe, and
Lava Thomas with public art administrator
Dr. Kayla G. Coleman to share their challenges and successes devising public art projects on the global stage. How are communities invited into the process of developing projects? How do artists and administrators envision art objects living on the landscape in the future? How has the public responded to the work? In what ways has the public inscribed these objects with their own ideas?
