Abstract (English)

Miles’ book combines critical theory with perspectives from design, sociology, cultural geography and urban planning to analyse the role public art and design plays in the city and its future. Noting the contradictions inherent in public art, including the tension between decorative and socially-engaged work, Miles suggests ways in which the resulting critique of the city can contribute to urban sustainablility. List of figures. Bibliography (14 p.); index (8 p.); 80 bibl. ref.
