Central Subway Public Art Program: Call for Artists
[Unknown site tag]The San Francisco Arts Commission is seeking applications from professional artists working in all visual arts media for the Central Subway, which will extend light rail service from the T-Third Street Rail north under Fourth and Stockton Streets through the South of Market, Union Square and Chinatown neighborhoods in San Francisco.
Application Deadline: Wednesday, April 30, 2008
All applications must be submitted through CaFÉ, an internet application service at www.callforentry.org
This call to artists is intended to expand the Central Subway Artist Pool first established in 2005. Artist Pool candidates will be considered for a variety of art opportunities at each station, including, but not limited to, large wall and ceiling surfaces, glass elevator exteriors, large open spaces for hanging artworks, and opportunities on the entryway, mezzanine, concourse and platform levels, and areas adjacent to the stations. The Arts Commission anticipates multiple phases of site identification and artist selection for the Central Subway Public Art Program throughout the rest of 2008 and at a subsequent phase in the process.
Workshop for artists:
Tuesday, March 18, 2008 from 6:00 to 8:00 PM
Chinese Culture Center
Hilton Hotel, 750 Kearny Street, 3rd Floor
At this workshop, Arts Commission staff will provide artists with general information about the Central Subway, including potential sites for artwork, and show examples of existing art-in-transit artworks locally, nationally, and internationally. Application guidelines and processes will be discussed and a demonstration of CaFÉ, an online application system, will be presented.
Please note: Workshops are free and open to the public. This workshop is not mandatory for artists interested in submitting an application.
