Public views sought over new art


The public is being given the chance to have a say about a new piece of art for Leicester city centre.

One of two exhibitions has been held so residents and shoppers can discuss the five pieces being considered for a site on Sanvey Gate.

They include a textile fox, a glass panel featuring boots and leaves and decorated pavement.

Officials said reaction to the first open day had been positive and a decision was expected later this year.

Councillor Andy Connelly said: "This is a really great opportunity to brighten up a very well used area of the city with a great piece of new art.

"It is really important that people have their say on the project because it will be pride of place in Sanvey Gate for years to come."

A second public show will be held on 28 May at Leicester Market.
