The streets around Albert Park, AUT and the University of Auckland are hosting a temporary art exhibition featuring work by AUT students and alumni.

Microsites is a series of 12 small, temporary public art projects by 13 artists that are intriguing, subtle and surprising discoveries for people living, working and walking through Auckland’s Learning Quarter.

The project, which is an initiative of Auckland City Council in partnership with AUT University and the University of Auckland, was conceived as an opportunity for artists to create small scale interventions that run against the grain or interfere with everyday perceptions and experiences of a place or neighbourhood.

The work of AUT alumni Thomas Stewart and Agnes So, and current students Anthony Cribb and Amber Claire Pearson are included in Microsites.  For more information, including a map of where to find the artworks click here.
