Public Art

We are still pursuing the meters project as mentioned in the last blog post. We have six artists signed up and one alternate.  We are waiting for the meters to be primed and hope to complete this project within the next few weeks.

Meanwhile we are attracting new members, but have not received their information for posting yet.  Remember that when you sign up as a member, you get to put up 2-3 photos and 2-3 paragraphs about yourself and your art on this blog. The membership application is on the blog and you can print it out and send it in with a check. 

Contact Linda Feinberg, Treasurer, if you are interested in more information.

Here are some more ideas for public art.  The photo on left is of a sculpture made out of what looks like old parts.  New Hampshire has lots of old parts lying around, so I’m sure our local artists could come up with something interesting.

It wouldn’t have to be representational, like this horse. It could be abstract. If you haven’t visited the Currier Museum  lately, walk by and look at the outdoor art there.  Statue on left was seen in California.

How about painting utility boxes in Manchester? We would need to get permission from the city, but this would certainly improve those boring boxes.  Photos below were taken in Netanya, Israel.
