The microbial ecology of an outdoor artwork gallery was evaluated using basic microbiological standardize techniques. The sculptures made up of wood, cement and cast metal had a mean heterotrophic bacterial count of; wood (×104 ), cement (×104 ) and metal (×104 ) while the fungal count were wood (×104 ), cement (×104 ) and metal (×104 ) colonies forming unit per milliliter of the scrapped solutions. | Microbial ecological dynamics, load and diversity of sculptured artworks in cross river University of Technology outdoor gallary
