An essay by Alison de Lima Greene delves into the history of the collection and an essay by Public Art UHS director and chief curator María C. Gaztambide, Ph.D., looks towards its future. In addition, the volume highlights about 40 of the collection’s most notable works, illustrated with all-new colour photography and accompanied by entries written by artists, scholars, curators and other members of the arts community.
