Abstract
This article argues that visual arts education is one consequential value of the acquisition and placing public sculptures. My thesis clarified the functions public sculptures of the Jyväskylä City Art Collection performed in the city in 1977-2007 and the analysis showed that the city acquired and placed public sculptures based on grounds related to the cityscape and visual arts education of the citizens. Furthermore, this article suggests that through public art acquisitions and their thoughtful placing equally anyone can learn more about visual arts, design and aesthetic value embedded in the urban planning and the built environment.
