Abstract
Adelaide’s public art has recently taken an upturn: a series of glass boats now float on the River Torrens! Nearby on the river’s edge, is its land-based component bearing Wittgenstein’s text: “The limits of my language mean the limits of my world”. I bumped into this while out on my daily walk and carried along by a vision of glass boats and Wittgenstein, I overshot my destination. Things must be looking up when public art does that to walkers!
