The internationally recognized Let’s Re-Make art collaborative will be working on the ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ University campus and in the Nashville community the week of Nov. 17. The theme of the project is "Shelter."
Students are invited to contribute to a blog, make posters, help distribute the posters in the community and attend a talk with Let’s Re-Make and other artists working in the public arena to learn about current and future projects.
These activities will take place on the ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ campus:
• Wednesday, Nov. 19, and Thursday, Nov. 20, 2-6 p.m. in Sarratt Studio Arts Room 123, students will be helping to design and produce large posters around the shelter theme.
• Friday, Nov. 21, at noon, students will meet at The Commons Center and then begin posting the posters around Nashville.
The Let’s Re-Make piece is the first phase of a year-long Nashville Cultural Arts Project (NCAP) project called "Art Makes Place: Contemporary Artists Make Community-based, Public Art in the Form of Temporary, Site-specific and Performance-based Artworks," or AMP. Each project specifically includes public school and ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ students, and results in a temporary, site-specific or performance-based artwork. AMP is organized by NCAP in collaboration with Metro Nashville Public Schools, ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ and the Frist Center for the Visual Arts, with funding from the Metro Nashville Arts Commission, ²¤ÂÜÊÓƵ and the Elizabeth Firestone Graham Foundation.
