As public space becomes saturated by corporate culture, a new generation of artists is emerging. While much interest has been generated by the recent politicization of public art, until now no single book has looked at how artists committed to reclaiming art for the public have addressed the role of the body. This book, which presents projects by seven artists, is an important document on the changing perception of the body in contemporary public art.
