What do we mean by ‘public realm commissioning’?

By ‘public realm commissioning’ we are referring to art which is accessible to the public, irrespective of if it is located on private or public property or has been commissioned by private or public funds.

It is usual for this kind of commission to be site-specific. More established examples include sculptures, installation and statues. Art School Plus encourages artists engaging with any kind of medium or practice to apply to its programmes, and especially artists engaged in socially engaged practice.
