Public Art Reaction
Public Art is pretty much self explanatory. Usually landmarks which attract tourists.In my share of being a tourist, I once visited my birthplace; Los Angeles. In LA, one thing you will definitely see when you see is Hollywood's famous sign over Mt Lee in the Hollywood Hills.The sign stand 45 feet tall and is 350 feet long and was designed by Thomas Fisk Goff in 1923. It was originally named Hollywoodland and its purpose advertise local real estate development in the surrounding areas for only a year and a half but the sign was recognized as an international symbol during the Golden Age of Hollywood.
