Notice: A project about Art and Landscape

As I have said before, I wonder why a country such as Australia with its amazing landscapes does not have a much stronger arts in the landscape profile, let alone many more robust public art programs.

I realise this is to do with a general lack of leadership from the Commonwealth but it is also a problem at local government levels in Australia.

There are positive stories out there. Have a look through both of these links from the Arts Cities Landscape site.

The first are the projects in the UK – click here; the second lot are in France – click here.
