CALL TO ARTISTS FOR EXTERIOR PUBLIC ART FOR THE NEW CONVENTION PARKING GARAGE IN DOWNTOWN OKLAHOMA CITY

BUDGET:  $134,250

 

DEADLINE:  4:00:00PM (CST) on January 8, 2020

 

The Central Oklahoma Transportation and Parking Authority (COTPA) seeks public art design proposals for its new $23 million garage in Park Union District in downtown Oklahoma City. COTPA announces this call for professional artists to submit their qualifications to be considered for the 1% for Art opportunity.

The public art design and installation oversight sought through this announcement will address three

“skin” walls of the new parking garage.

 

The materials to be used are Duo-Gard FUSION colored tiles (4” square polycarbonate tiles) with metal fasteners. More information about the tiles can be found in the announcement. They will be installed on vertical steel cables.  The artwork for the three “skin” walls will be designed by the selected artist. The final design will be installed by the general contractor Manhattan Construction who is responsible for all materials. They have hired a glazing company to install the polycarbonate squares.

 

This Call to Artists includes final designs in accordance with code requirements, coordination and oversight provided by the contracted artist.  Additionally, the design sought will be:

 

• Instantly memorable

• Visually compelling

• Timeless and enduring

• Site specific

 

The six-level, 1,100 space garage will be located at 15 SW 4th St., in a developing area of the urban core east of the new Scissortail Park named the Park Union District. The garage will serve the future Omni Convention Center Hotel and MAPS3 Convention Center, Boulevard Place (a mixed-use project in development), Chesapeake Arena, and more, as well as providing office space for parking operations. The parking garage could eventually be expanded by 300 spaces, providing the ability to increase parking as the area grows. Construction is projected to take 12 months to complete, with the timeline closely linked to construction of the Omni Hotel and the MAPS3 Convention Center.

Janet,

We try to keep our work load at around 12-15 projects per PM.  However, unlike NYC, all the contracts are with our agency.  I believe in NYC, the artist contracts are with the architects, which might reduce NYC work load per project.  Nonetheless, I don’t see how anyone manages 167 projects at one time!

Dear Janet,

 

Austin AIPP has about 70 active projects (value about $8 mil) and 5 project managers to handle them. We aim for each project manager to ideally have 10-12 active percent-for-art permanent commissions at a time, although it has been up to 20 projects at times, including temporary commissions. (This is not ideal and can lead to staff burn-out.)

 

During our program’s 15-step process, the PM is expected to work closely with each artist and the community, stakeholders and city department receiving the art. The approvals process includes oversight by the AIPP Panel and the Arts Commission.

 

Good luck with your testimony. 167 active projects and 3 staff seems untenable.

 

Sue

Greetings again,

 

I have been asked to testify at the NYC City Council regarding the NYC Percent for Art Program and I want to bring facts in order to be supportive. 

 

 I found the Survey and the chart that is being shared on this Listserve very helpful but I want to bring some comparative specific statistics for large cities.

 

Currently NY Percent for Art is managing 167 projects with three staff members (!) Can anyone give me comparable stats for other cities? How many projects at one time and how many staff members to handle them?

 

I appreciate your help - this is in support of the NYC program.

 

Janet Z.
