Description

From depression-era murals to contemporary sculptures, Arizona State University’s public art reflects the rich historic traditions of the university and Arizona, as well as recent expressions by such nationally renowned artists as Luis Jimenez and Fletcher Benton. The public art of ASU welcomes the surrounding community and provides a lively forum for discussion about art and the context in which it was created, all the while reflecting the campus’ great diversity. Public Art walking guides are available at the ASU Visitors Center, Memorial Union, or Student Services buildings.
