À propos

Take a walk through the evolution of public art in Saskatoon from the City’s first commission, 1959’s controversial Robert Murray modernist sculpture, through the ubiquitous period of statuary bronzes to the large scale murals of today by artists such as Emannuel Jarus. Led by curator Dr. Jen Budney, this tour will reflect on:

• How the practice of public art has changed in the last 50 years

• How the public’s expectations of public art has changed over time

• How the City’s approaches to public art is changing

Meet in front of the Delta Bessborough.
