by Andrée Bober (Editor)
Public art has the capacity to resonate deeply, stimulate curiosity, and inspire the imagination in unexpected ways. The campus collection at the University of Texas at Austin is no exception. This updated handbook adds six recent acquisitions, including works by Monika Bravo, Beth Campbell, Simone Leigh, Sarah Oppenheimer, Eamon Ore-Giron, and Jennifer Steinkamp. Each entry features color photography and an overview, and the guide includes a detailed fold-out map.
One of the most distinguishing features of Austin's campus, the university's public art collection fosters unexpected connections that stimulate learning and growth. By being free and accessible to all, it enriches the lives of students and visitors alike. Discover why Landmarks is a point of pride for the university community and all people of the state of Texas.
