2009 Sculpture Project - Call for Tenders
19 May 2009Front Room 2009 has secured some grant to produce a temporary piece of sculpture for the art trail to be displayed where last year's beehive sculpture was, at the bottom of Windsor Terrace. This project will form a key plank in our publicity for the 2009 event and should be a community based project with input from local schools or other community groups.
We are inviting tenders from Front Room artists and participants to produce the work. The deadline for submitting tenders is 24th July 2009.
The budget includes a decent amount for materials as well as a small amount for artist time and expenses. We will be offering support to help run this project to the successful artist. Full details can be found in the application form.
The application form should be returned to us by e-mail or by post to Front Room, C/O Fig. 1, 51 St Lukes Road, Bristol, BS3 4RX.
Please visit the Front Room website to get involved in this year's Front Room - we are currently putting together the 2009 team so why not see if you can help? www.frontroom.org.uk.
I think art is good at looking back and looking forward. I don't think art is good at looking head-on. At the end of the day, people are more important than paintings.
