What is Public Art?
===Public art today has a much broader meaning than just art in a gallery or a museum. Public art is defined as any work which is created by an artist and can be viewed by the public, both in indoor and outdoor spaces. Examples of public outdoor spaces can include: local parks, streets, shopping centres and public spaces such as South Bank. A large number of outstanding examples of public art can be seen throughout Melbourne City. Public art can also have a very powerful effect on the community and a positive influence on people. It improves our public spaces and helps to transform the places where we live, work, and play into more welcoming and beautiful environments that invite interaction and spark conversation.===
