"...Many public art projects are not fabricated by the artists who designed them. They are created through a collaborative process that involves the artist and experts ranging from engineers to welders who actually build the artwork. For many emerging public artists, discovering the right fabricators and other experts can help them break into the public art realm more easily than learning new skills on their own. For builders, becoming involved in public art is a great way to broaden their portfolios and develop a competitive advantage in the marketplace.
During the October 12th event experts in the area of public art, architecture and design, and the building industry will discuss both local and national projects that were completed through design collaborations. The speakers will describe the benefits of working with individuals whose careers are different from theirs and how the overall process ensures creative, functional, and durable artworks. Questions and comments from the audience will be encouraged during the event. After the presentation, participants will have the opportunity to network with professionals in variety of artistic and construction mediums.
