According to the Metro Nashville Art Commission web site, public art is:
- is created through a process that gathers input from the public
- considers the social and physical context of the site
- is located on Metro public property
- is likely to be funded with public dollars but may be funded by public and/or private dollars
I ran across this article and immediately thought, “Green Public Art!” It seems to me to be a perfect combination of functionality and creativity.

I hope Nashville can begin to use some of these concepts as we look to future projects. Particularly with upcoming projects related to NES and TVA’s partnership with Nissan to create electrical charging stations for Nissan’s new planned electric car, a part of the State’s new Solar Initiative.
Nice article thank you for sharing!
First off good site. I’m unsure if it may be brought up, but when working with Safari I can never get the complete blog to load without refreshing many times. May just be my modem. Enjoy!
Love your opinion. Perhaps green energy information would help someone reduce bills.
Nice idea, I wonder whether anybody could make a wind turbine into art? I’m thinking maybe not!
