15 Minute Intro

Use MAPS in a new way. Instead of taking in everything at once you can dive into The Story of Public Art bit by bit – one project at a time. 

Every Saturday at 12:15, we offer a short introduction of one of the 90 art projects featured in the exhibition. Hear the ideas behind a groundbreaking – and often temporary – public art project from the 1950s to today. Many of these projects no longer exist out in the world and can only be experienced here at MAPS. Each week, a new project is in focus. 

On January 24th 2026  you will be further introduced to the artist Gordon Matta-Clark and the work Conical Intersect, 1975.

Duration: 15 minutes. Price: Free with paid admission.

Pair the introduction with lunch in the café beforehand – or coffee and cake afterwards.
Keep coming back each Saturday until you’ve heard the full story of art in public space.
