Description
Rochester Contemporary Art Center (RoCo) invites artists to propose three images for a temporary public art installation at our main facility. Of particular interest are projects that connect visitors to the location, community and/or history of the neighborhood, challenge visitors and passersby, and address important social and political issues. RoCo welcomes visual artists of all genres. RoCo also invites visual artists to collaborate with literary artists as we have previously shown in this location.
The selected series of three images will be exhibited to the public 24/7 for 4-6 months. The images will be printed on a weather-safe material at about 9' h x 6' w. Selected projects will require the following resolution: 12,000 px (h) x 8,000 px (w). The artist will receive a $400 stipend & use fee for exhibiting preexisting images. If an artist is interested in creating new works for this submission, please contact us. All production and installation costs are covered by RoCo.
