Request for Proposals - Project Manager for Canmore Multiplex Public Art
- Posted by artsandculture on July 12th, 2011
The Town of Canmore (the “Town”) has approved $100,000 commission for a public art installation at the new $39 million Community Multiplex (the “Multiplex”) currently under construction in Canmore. The Town has a vision for the facility, “To be an inspiring gathering place that enriches the well-being, enjoyment and aspirations of the community.” The design intent for the Multiplex is largely based on the geography of the town and its evolution from small mining town to the recreational, cultural and vibrant mountain community it is today.
The public art piece (the “Artwork”) will be a three-dimensional sculpture to be located outdoors in a bioswayle, in a prominent part of the main plaza leading to the entrance to the Multiplex on the southwest side of the building. See the attached site drawings.
The Town requires the services of a specialized project manager to execute the project on its behalf. The project manager is required to work with the artist to initiate, carry out and conclude all activities for the project. The project manager is accountable for the project management of the public art project from selection of shortlisted artists to final product and installation.
