The Public Artscape of New Haven

The Public Artscape of New Haven] dentifies and investigates the development, content, placement and scope of imagery as expressed in the medium of public art, monuments and memorials. The book offers insight into the conditions that structured the production and uses of public art in the context of one urban space, over the course of almost two centuries. The result is an image of a city shaped by sensitivity to place, supported by self-selected episodes from local and national history.
