A list of public art in Indianapolis.

Methodology[edit]

This list applies only to works of public art accessible in an outdoor public space. For example, this does not include those that are visible in a museum.

Most of the works mentioned are sculptures. When this is not the case (i.e. sound installation, for example) it is stated next to the title.
