"Art in the public realm has the power to ignite conversations, provoke thought, and foster a sense of collective identity. Art Made Public celebrates artist Marijana Tadic, whose work has significantly impacted urban landscapes across Adelaide, South Australia, and surrounding regions.For more than three decades, Marijana Tadic has been recognised for her ability to distil complex ideas into elegant sculptural forms. An astute observer of the natural world, Tadic uses patterns found in nature - stratification, interlacing, duplication, and the flow of energy - to construct works that create dialogue and bring attention to issues of significance. In Art Made Public, Tadic provides us with an intimate glimpse into ten major public artworks, offering us personal insights into her conceptual development, inspiration, artistic process and challenges in creating works that are in conversation with place and a public audience.With essays by Miroslav Micanovic and Marie Falcinella, the book takes readers on a journey through the life and art of Marijana Tadic who, through a mastery of spatial awareness and intricate knowledge of the potential of materials, weaves meaning into the very fabric of our public spaces.Art Made Public acknowledges Marijana Tadic's extraordinary talent and explores the dynamic intersection between art and the public realm. This book is an indispensable resource for art enthusiasts, urban planners, and anyone intrigued by the profound impact of creativity on our shared spaces."--Publisher's website.
