La Universidad de Granada y la escultura pública

Abstract

The aim of this text is to take a tour of the public sculpture related to the University of Granada, both located within its campuses and in neighboring urban spaces, as well as those related to the university activity in the city. The perception of this selection allows the viewer to make itineraries with pedagogical values related to historical memory, including the aesthetics captured by the artists who made them. The varied design corresponds to the different artistic tendencies since the second half of the 20th century, dominated by figuration, although there is no lack of works of enormous expressiveness and abstract in its conception.
