Asian Public Art News
Art and similar interventions in public space. Coverage moves outwards from Singapore through Asia to the rest of the world. Like nothing else, the idea of "public art" exposes the contradiction inherent in our ideas of "the public" and of "art".

  finalists announced in Beijing's Olympics public sculpture contest
The Chinese Olympic Committee announced the finalists in the Olympics public sculpture contest. As we've previously noted, maquettes will tour three cities in China before a public vote to determine the "gold, silver and bronze" winners. I couldn't find a presentation of the 273 finalists online, but I am sure it will come. Nearly 2500 designs were entered by artists from 82 countries and regions, with 1711 from China, Taiwan, Hong Kong or Macao.

The original terms of reference and contracts for the contest can be found here.
