City Art Square, Outdoor art gallery at Sha Tin Town Hall Plaza, Hong Kong.
City Art Square is an art space at Sha Tin Town Hall Plaza in Hong Kong that displays nineteen permanent installations. The collection includes sculptures, interactive works, and contemporary pieces arranged within a pedestrian area open to the public.
The space was created through a beautification project funded by Sun Hung Kai Properties Charitable Fund Limited to support the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. This initiative marked a turning point in integrating art into public areas across the city.
The square displays works by artists from different countries, including pieces like Red Box, Wirl, and Miracle Horse that represent various artistic approaches. Visitors encounter these different creative perspectives while walking through the public space.
The square is accessible during the day and features benches near the installations where visitors can view the artworks from different angles. It is helpful to walk slowly and linger between the works to fully experience the interactive and spatial elements.
The Dancing Landscape installation combines metal structures with light effects that create different visual patterns as people move through the space. This dynamic quality makes the work appear different depending on how many visitors are present at any given time.
