On Tuesday, September 20, PACA is hosted the first Creative Conversation in the fall series, "What's That? Public Art in Portland," from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. There are few things more controversial in the art world than Public Art. Who decides what becomes public art and what is the purpose? PACA is teaming up with Portland's Public Art Committee to bring you this introduction to those sculptures you see around town. We'll look at public art examples throughout history and in our own backyard. We'll discuss the opportunities and pitfalls for public art in Portland. Artists will also have the chance to find out the submission process for future projects.
I sat in and recorded the talk, I apologize for the technical problems that occurred during the recording.
