Sculpture in the City, 2023

This article discusses the unique qualities and experience of attending London’s Sculpture in the City trail. The piece also explores differences between gallery art and public art, as well as notions of transcendence in art. The concept of belief is also discussed as variously illustrated by religious architecture, art or a financial system that gambles on futures and insurances. Ultimately and implicitly, the piece encourages ways to think about our encounters with art in our urban setting, and specifically with public sculpture.
