Oklahoma City, OK + Moore Medical Center: Art for Healing RFQ
The Norman Regional Health Foundation announces this call for professional artists for a exterior inspirational work of art for the new, exceptionally modern healthcare facility in Moore, Oklahoma, to be opened in fall of 2016. The commissioned work will serve as an iconic exterior entry point to the new ambulatory facility and a transitional connection to the main entrance's atrium. The artwork will be visible from the highly trafficked Telephone Road. Work sought through this Call to Artists includes but is not limited to: Architectural elements and/or integrated sculptural works, landscape or hardscape design, active/interactive kinetic work,
two dimensional or low relief (suitable for wall application), freestanding sculpture, ceiling suspended sculpture, light/sounds/new media based work, glass/ceramic/metal/textile, wood, cast concrete or stone. Each public art project must reflect local custom, styles or cultural attitudes and integrate into the overall design of the new medical center.
Art for Healing is announced as an inspiration tribute to honor the courage and caring that took place on May 20, 2013. Care givers, patients and their families will encounter exceptional public artwork at the new Moore Medical Center that represents the community's resilience. Public artwork will be commissioned and placed both outside and inside the new facility to symbolize "moving forward," "hope for the future," innovation, protection, strength and endurance.
