Excerpted from RFQ Item #18-297 City of Augusta Procurement Department.
"Augusta, Georgia is soliciting statements of qualifications from qualified artists, or a team of artists, that are interested in providing professional services for the design, construction and installation of a Gateway Structure."
"Augusta, Georgia is geographically located in East Central Georgia along the banks of the Savannah River. While rapidly transforming to a cyber-technology economy, Augusta is rich in history and culture, and host to the annual Masters
Golf Tournament. Augusta believes in the importance of a place making and creating cultural spaces for a diverse community of 200,000 plus citizens and thousands of visitors who make Augusta a destination each year."
This call is a two-step process, in which 3 finalists from the RFQ will be commissioned to work with the City of Augusta to develop & finalize a proposed concept for the monumental sculpture. Finalists will have a $3000 stipend. |
