Public Art 公众艺术
Much of Philadelphia's art requires not a dollar to see and not a building to enter. Philadelphia has the largest collection of public art in America, courtesy of the city's innovative Mural Arts Program, designed to stop graffiti and enliven the city's buildings.

Other public art of note includes the many glass mosaics found throughout the city; a sampling of this great public art can be seen on South Street east of Broad.

Finally, center city Philadelphia offers two public statue displays. "The Kiss" is a sculpture that resembles a clothespin (and indeed is nicknamed "The Clothespin" by locals) located just across from City Hall on West Market Street. LOVE Park, serving as a terminus between City Hall and the museum-laden Benjamin Franklin Parkway, features a famous LOVE statue that has come to represent the brotherly love that Philadelphia was founded on. The site once was the city's (and perhaps the nation's) most popular skating attraction until new legislation and remodeling forts outlawed skating in the park.
