“Public Art Concepts” gives
the public an opportunity to engage with the artist in a behind-the-scenes look
at what it takes to create artwork for a public space. Given the growing
interest in and number of street murals and 3-D works along the arts district
corridor “Public Art Concepts” paves the way for a focused dialogue about what
it means to create an arts district and how this change begins with the artist.
The exhibit features scale models and proposals for public art works by
regional and national artists who have applied for grants and commissions, some
of which were awarded and others not.
Opening night features a lively panel of
participating artists and reps from funding agencies that have diverse
experience in the public art arena.
Featured Artists:
Washington Glass Studio (Erwin Timmers, Tim Tate, Michael
Janis)
Joe's Movement Emporium, 3309 Bunker Hill Road, Mt Rainier, MD 20712
