Types of sculptures and art

There are a number of different types of public sculptures and art that you will find in  New Zealand which include:

Figurative sculptures 

These are sculptures that represent human figures or animals. They are often used to commemorate historical figures or events or to honour community leaders.

Abstract sculptures

These sculptures don’t represent anything recognisable in the real world but instead use shapes, lines, and colours to create a unique visual experience and atmosphere.

Monumental sculptures

These are large-scale sculptures that are often designed to be the focal point of a public space and can be bold and captivating, drawing crowds from far and wide.

Kinetic sculptures

These sculptures are designed to move, either through the use of wind, water or through mechanical means. A fun and interactive choice.

Public art installations

These can be large-scale works that transform public spaces, often using light, sound, video and interactive elements to engage the public.

The advantages of high-quality art and sculptures

There are many advantages to choosing high-quality art and sculptures for a public space or otherwise. High-quality choices are made from superior-grade materials meaning they’ll last longer and also look better for longer. High-quality options will also be made by artisans of greater prominence leading to a more sophisticated quality of work. This will be culturally enriching for the environment and the public who get to enjoy it. Your community will also take great pride in a higher quality work of art which creates more social engagement and educational opportunities for young and old alike.

How to choose sculptures and art that are right for you and your community

There are many things to take into consideration when choosing the right sculptures and art for a public space in New Zealand. The first thing you should do is identify the goals you’re trying to achieve with your chosen works in terms of the space itself. What purpose will it serve? Is it to reflect the community’s cultural identity and values? Is it to enhance and complement the surrounding environment? Is it to draw crowds from abroad? Is it a mixture of all of the above? You should also consider the artist themselves and their credentials for such work. This will give you peace of mind and confidence in their experience to successfully carry out such work. Your budget and any permits that you might need will also need to be researched and considered.
