Public Art Discussion Series

FIRST SESSION TOPIC:  

New Media & Emerging Technologies in Public Art 

Presented in partnership with the Boston Center for the Arts, this first discussion series event of the 2011-2012 season will feature eight short, seven-minute presentations by New England artists who are making great strides within - or commentaries upon - the spheres of new media and emerging technologies, and whose projects are expanding the “publicness” of public art.  

Join us at the Mills Gallery at the Boston Center for the Arts for this kick-off, happy hour event  and come learn about the contemporary work being done by your peers. It will be an exciting evening of networking, and story swapping with colleagues and experts in the field, so be sure to mark your calendars now! All levels of public art experience are welcome!

Interested in being one of the artists who will have a chance to present? Email a short description of your project along with a link to your work (if it’s online) and/or up to 5 images to Lauren Winsor by September 9, 2011. Remember, the theme of the session is New Media & Emerging Technologies in Public Art.
