Application Deadline: March 14, 2008
BROWARD COUNTY, FL – The Broward Cultural Division Public Art and Design Program is seeking to recruit Broward artists interested in entering the dynamic and international field of public art. Artists are called to apply for the Duane Hanson Allied Artists Program – Pre-Qualified Roster, with an application deadline of March 14, 2008.
The purpose of the Allied Artist Program is to provide local artists the opportunity to assist experienced artists commissioned for major projects of $50,000 or more by the Public Art and Design Program, in order to gain the technical and administrative expertise needed to compete within the field of public art. Allied Artists are matched up with commissioned artists based on their level of experience, artistic medium and general interests. Pre-qualified artists who are chosen for a specific project will be compensated for their service as an Allied Artist.
The first project for which an Allied Artist will be selected is for FINFAN by artist Ed Carpenter for the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. This project is especially suitable for artists interested in large scale, three-dimensional, site-specific, public art. Some knowledge of, or interest in, construction techniques and project management is preferred. Please review the artist’s website for more information on this project: www.edcarpenter.net.
Artists who are selected for the pre-qualified roster of Allied Artists, but who are not selected to work on this first project, will remain in the roster for upcoming projects.
