Reimagining Public Art
UC San Diego is home to the world renowned Stuart Collection, a unique assemblage of site-specific works by leading artists of our time. From the iconic “Sun God” sculpture to the gravity-defying “Fallen Star” atop Jacobs Hall, these public art pieces are intimately tied to the identity and life of the campus.
