What We're Seeing: Missing Public Art

Historic England have launched a new campaign to protect and save public art.

Throughout the 20th century, acclaimed artists like Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth created works that were displayed in the open.

Placed outside schools, housing estates and hospitals, the pieces were commissioned out of a desire to bring art to the public.

Tragically, many have since disappeared from public view.  Some stolen, some vandalised and others just lost.

Visit the Historic England website to find out more about the campaign and how you can help.
