The city’s Office of Cultural Affairs is calling for artists for a new public art installation at the entrance of the Dallas Zoo.
Any artist can apply for the $262,000 project, with these qualifications:
Demonstrated successful completion of public art or park project of similar size and scope
Demonstrated ability to work with a design and construction team.
Demonstrated ability to complete work on time and on budget
Ability to attend or participate in person or by phone in meetings with design teams, community members and others involved in the project
To be considered, submit via callforentry.org a resume; six JPEG images of previous public art of park projects; an image list detailing the title, date, location, size, budget and commissioning entity; a letter of interest outlining qualifications, interest and ability to complete the project; and three references.
A few artists will be selected to receive $3,000 stipends to create site-specific proposals.
