{"product_id":"9783868590647","title":"ARTocracy","description":"\u003cp\u003eArt, public space and town planning: what comes to mind if you put these words together? Perhaps not the most positive images: pompous monuments in squares, weary abstractions on roundabouts, oversize gestures in metal in parks, and so on, from memorable landmarks to architectural embellishments. \u003ci\u003eARTocracy\u003c\/i\u003e explores the sometimes awkward relationship between art and public space, looking specifically at contemporary instances of the genre. Also functioning as a curatorial handbook on the subject, \u003ci\u003eARTocracy\u003c\/i\u003e tracks how projects are initiated and implemented—from the inception of a theme to the invitation of an artist and from funding a project to marketing it—and includes a wealth of information in the form of interviews with cultural practitioners, budgeting charts and detailed schedules. Through these useful examples and a range of methodologies, \u003ci\u003eARTocracy\u003c\/i\u003e provides a first hand look at the many successive stages of organizing collaborative public art projects.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jovis Verlags- und Projektburo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47052587958512,"sku":"9783868590647","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783868590647_p0.jpg?v=1763701475","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783868590647","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
