Rotating Public Art Program: Series IV

Series IV of the Rotating Public Art Program comprises eight sculptural artworks installed throughout Pasadena in each Council District, commissioned through the City's Cultural Affairs Division. Completed in 2024, the Series IV exhibition will be on view for a three-year period, with artworks by Lisa Mann, Damien Jones, Cynthia Minet, Hugo Heredia Barrera, Arteclettica, Charles Sherman, Kellan Shanahan, and In Theory Art Collective. Situated in unusual and often overlooked corners of the City, these artworks activate and transform small public spaces into exciting moments of discovery. By exhibiting both existing and commissioned artworks for a temporary period, the Rotating Program produces a dynamic and ever-changing experience for residents and visitors alike. We hope this audio tour of artists podcasts will inspire you to immerse yourself in the arts and explore all eight artworks in the exhibition.  About Rotating Public Art Program:Launched in 2011, the Rotating Public Art Program seeks to create an outdoor art gallery to enliven the urban landscape, create a dynamic visual experience for residents and visitors, create more venues for artwork in the City, increase exposure and opportunities for artists who live and work in Pasadena, educate the public about public art by stimulating discussion, provide a cultural draw for tourists and provide entrée for artists new to public art.This temporary public art program aims to expand the context for public art in Pasadena.
