Creative Time Seeks New York Artists for 2019 Public Art Commission
Creative Time, a New York-based non-profit, has launched an open call for a public artwork to be displayed in spring or summer 2019. The opportunity targets artists residing in New York City who have not previously secured a public commission or significant institutional backing. Proposals must address urgent social concerns, foster public conversation, and employ innovative exhibition approaches. Applications require a resume, biography, work samples, and a letter of intent outlining the project. A jury will select finalists by late January 2019, who must then provide comprehensive plans including concept details, site specifications, production schedules, visual materials, and a budget. The deadline for submissions is 29 November 2018.
