SITE Specific SCULPTURE Exhibitions! / PARKED ART Sculpture Site Update:

Our new public art program of temporary outdoor installations announced last month brought in offers from artists with pieces available for temporary installation. The committee now has two new members: Kore D'Abravanel, public planner and Elizabeth Hansen, landscape designer. Kris Otis is the link to the Marin French Cheese Company's celebration which will now be in January, not October as announced in the last newsletter. Artists with available works or proposals should send an image and a paragraph or two about their work by email to Joe Fox, Park Art Committee Chair, Joefox3@gmail.com This will be an ongoing program. The committee will use the images submitted to show to potential sponsors in Marin public places. Artists will be notified by the committee when a site has been found that is felt to be suitable for their work. In addition to the Marin French Cheese Company, the committee is negotiating with sponsors in Stinson Beach, Bolinas, Point Reyes Station and Inverness.

If you are interested in installing sculpture, or donating an installation site, please send an image and a paragraph about you and your work, or site with your contact information to:

Joe Fox

Site Sculpture Coordinator for ACF.
