Project Description:
The City of Sculpture's project dubbed (PAINT), is an ongoing
initiative to bring the artwork of local Hamilton-area artists to
the walls of the Jack Kirsch Underpass located within Hamilton's
urban core. Because of Hamilton's recent renaissance in downtown
development, it has become a primary strategy to enhance the
aesthetic appeal of the city's major entrance corridors. In planning
with the city and our organization, the project works to reduce
blight along the underpass by adorning it with art.
How Does It Work?
Two artists will be selected to produce five (5) 12" X 12" canvassed
paintings; each artist dedicated to one side of the underpass. The
work should flow as a series and work to enhance the overall appeal
of the underpass itself. After selection, artwork will be submitted
to the City of Sculpture in late August, and over a one week period,
the artwork will be professionally photographed and printed on a 10'
X 10' dibond-metal panel. When printing is complete, the artwork
will be installed along the underpass.
