15 Minute Intro: Big-Tail Elephant

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 day 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 1960s 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. 

Sunday May 3 2026, we will focus on the artist Big-Tail Elephant and the art work One hour Game, 1991.

Duration: 15 minutes.

Price: Free with paid admission.
