Indepth Arts News: "New Land Marks: Public Art, Community, and the Meaning of Place" 2001-02-11 until 2001-04-14 Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art Philadelphia, PA, USA
The Fairmount Park Art Association (FPAA) has organized the exhibition
as part of its ongoing New Land Marks program,
a nationally recognized model that brings together
artists and community organizations to plan new works of public art
in conjunction with ongoing community development,
urban greening, public amenities, and other revitalization initiatives.
These efforts celebrate community identity, commemorate 'untold' histories,
and offer visionary, yet reasonable, ways to invigorate public spaces.
The exhibition will document sixteen works in process
through photographs, plans, drawings, computer renderings,
maps, maquettes, and models and will feature proposals developed
by the following artists and community organizations:
- Lorene Cary, Lonnie Graham, and John Stone with Project H.O.M.E.
PUBLICATION--
A fully illustrated publication by the same title includes:
essays by Penny Balkin Bach, Ellen Dissanayake, Thomas Hine, and Lucy Lippard;
detailed proposal descriptions; and a comprehensive bibliography.
The publication was produced by Grayson Publishing/Ariel Editions.
