Call: Public Art Project in Regina seeks expressions of interest

Expressions of Interest

Immigrant Recognition Sculpture: A Public Art Project

The City of Regina is seeking artistic and/or design services for the creation, design and installation of a unique sculpture to celebrate the contribution of immigrants to Regina. The sculpture will incorporate a naming feature to display donor and/or immigrant names.

The selected artist/design team will be responsible for the design, production, transportation and installation of the work on the site chosen and will work with a City of Regina multi-disciplinary team to ensure appropriate integration of the work into its environment. The work will be unveiled in the spring of 2008.

The budget for the project is set at $250,000 and must include all costs, fees, materials honorariums and taxes.

Expressions of interests from artists/design teams are being accepted until August 1, 2007. We are looking for artists with a body of sculptural work and experience capable of producing a significant civic sculpture. Submissions should include an artist biography indicating relevant experiences and personnel, samples of previous work and reference letters. Finalists will be commissioned to provide detailed proposals.

A project overview is available at www.regina.ca . For more information, contact the City of Regina Arts, Culture & Heritage Program Specialist at clavoie@regina.ca or phone (306) 777-7603.
