We have been working with the Department of Engineering at the University of the West of England to commission artist Alice Channer to create her first permanently sited sculpture for their new building.
Field Art Projects have been working with St William and Dallas-Pierce-Quintero to commission an artist to create a major new large-scale work in the heart of Battersea, London.
Artist Commissions for the Bristol Beacon Transformation
Public Art Statement for University of Bristol Temple Quarter Campus
Field Art Projects were appointed in spring 2012 to develop and deliver a public art strategy and programme for the University of Bristol’s residential site at Stoke Bishop, north Bristol. The project culminates with the launch of Sarah Staton’s new work Edith & Hans this week.
Field Art Projects are advising the Design Team for the new Bristol Arena on their art strategy and the art programme being delivered alongside the building.
I’m excited to share that the Public Art and Cultural Activation Toolkit, which I co-wrote with We Made That for Bristol City Council, has now been published. The Toolkit is a practical guide for embedding culture and creativity in the regeneration of central Bristol, from small-scale activations to long-term public art projects. Working on this project has been a fantastic opportunity to think about how artists can help shape new neighbourhoods that are vibrant, inclusive, and rooted in the communities they serve, whilst maintaining their integrity and purpose.
You can download the full Toolkit along with two extracts (Bristol City Centre/Broadmead and Frome Gateway) from the Resources page of Bristol City Council’s public art website here.
