Portable Works
Seattle Public Utilities Portable Works Collection is a rotating collection of more than 268 artworks in all media, representing many of the artists collected by the City since 1973. The collection includes sculpture, painting, mixed media, prints, photography, and textiles.
The artworks are exhibited primarily in public areas of SPU facilities. The purpose of the Portable Art Collection is to increase public awareness of and support for the arts by displaying works in the working environment of public buildings. Here, the employees are able to live with the work each day and experience a wide array of artistic and cultural expression.
