community involved artworks

Examples of community involved  public artworks from around the world.
I thought it would be useful to look at how other artists have involved communities in making public artworks.

Jr makes artworks, usually pasteups with photographic portraits that people have sent him. He also assists communities to make their own artworks with photographic portraits.


Israel - Palestine in 2007 on the separation wall / security fence ! We pasted illegally with a group of friends faces of people doing the same job. The project was called Face 2 Face and showed us that the limit were not where we thought they were ! Here Nuns help us paste the priest on the Palestinian side of the wall... they were walking by and recognized the priest...they couldn`t help it !
