This year XXL art gained new momentum in Moscow, resulting in lively debates. Some people support it, some people oppose, others remain unsure of what to think.
In these circumstances, a number of questions arise:
- What public art is in demand among commissioners (city authorities, real estate developers, architects, commercial centers, gallery owners)?
- How to make an area relevant and commercially viable with public art?
- What are the specific features of contemporary art for public spaces? Should such public art be eternal or temporary?
- Who are the public art creators of today and tomorrow?
