While it is out of print, I have my students read Erika Doss’ Spirt Poles and Flying Pigs.  While written in 1995, I still find it relevant and on target.  For a more historical perspectives I also like Harriet Senie and Sally Webster’s Critical Issues in Public Art.

If you were to recommend ONE resource to a group of college-age students who are learning about how to interpret public art for others (written, signage, in-person), what would that resource be?  Here’s the one I’d recommend:  

F. Senie, Harriet. (2008). Reframing Public Art: Audience Use, Interpretation, and Appreciation. 10.1002/9780470775936.ch9. 

Any others?
