| Description: | A visual and poetic look at how public art can express the history and heart of a community! A celebration of the power of public art to express a community''s cultural heritage, Arte del Pueblo explores San Antonio''s heart and soul. In moving photography and poetic commentary, it covers five genres of public art in a variety of artistic styles, from murals, sculpture, and mosaics to street art and digital art projections. Readers will come away with a deeper understanding of this multicultural crossroad through an introduction to its major artistic influences, as well as thought-provoking interviews with 11 of the 190 artists featured. San Antonio''s public artworks can be found everywhere: from its famous River Walk to the West Side Barrio, in parks and libraries, along roadways and bridges, on high-rises and restaurants. The book''s suggested self-tours guide those who wish to appreciate their favorite pieces in person. |
