CALL TO ARTISTS
The Louis Armstrong House Museum seeks
an artist to create a new work of
art for its Visitors Center.
Background
The Louis Armstrong House Museum is
creating a Visitors Center across the
street from the museum.
The project to design and construct the
Visitors Center
is being administered by the Dormitory
Authority of the State of
New York
(DASNY) and by the City University of
New York (CUNY).
The design team wishes to bring an
artist into the design process and to
enrich the Visitors Center with the
installation of new art. The art may be
any form of visual art conceived in any
medium, material, or combination
thereof.
The art may also be a sound or video
installation. The art must relate in a
meaningful way to the life and artistry
of Louis
Armstrong. The art must enhance the
visitor experience.
The artist will be paid from the
construction budget.
We anticipate that the design team will
select an artist in
June or July 2008.
To be considered
Artists who wish to be considered for
the
Visitors Center
project should
e-mail
(1) a brief statement about their art
and
(2) their contact information (name,
address, telephone, and e-mail)
to Deslyn Dyer (Assistant Director of
the Louis Armstrong House Museum) at
deslyn.dyer@qc.cuny.edu
Please enter the words “Art for
Visitors Center” in the subject
line.
