Public Art

A number of public art commissions have taken place in Bracknell Forest over the last 50 years, starting with the development of the New Town. Between 2009 and 2010 Eleanor King and Johanna White helped the Council to find out more about public art in the Borough whilst studying at the University of Reading.
In 2010. Angela Kingston from Artpoint used this information as a starting point to interpreting the following art works. To find out more information on each, please click on:
