Hey y’all, it’s that time again. From Atlanta Beltline, Inc.:

Artists are encouraged to submit proposals that marry their artistic visions with the landscape and sustainability themes of the Atlanta BeltLine.

Proposals should reflect the historic, environmental, cultural, functional, urban design and/or aesthetic parameters of the potential sites and should be well-researched by the candidates. The submission deadline is April 16, 2012. The RFP can be found online at art.beltline.org and is available for download now. PDF

Installation will begin in June and projects must be installed no later than August 31, 2012. A timeline and installation schedule will be developed with each artist or artist team.
