Art in Public Places
Since  1973, this inspired local organization has placed art in public places throughout Bend, Oregon. More recently, they have made this art viewable via Flash at this graphics-rich site. Everything revolves around the Gallery section, which overflows with sculpture, fountains, walls, windows, paintings, and installations found in Bend's parks, libraries, museums, and courtyards. The diversity of the artwork reflects the history, culture, and landscape of central Oregon. Otters, salmon, and trout frolic in sculptural waves, children dance in circles, and pronghorn antelope roam through fields. Should you ever visit Bend, the Map section shows you where to find these pieces. Luckily, you don't need to live in Oregon to enjoy this public art. (in Museums and Exhibits) |
