(a) I am pleased to see an interest in this fantastic project. The projection artwork
WA 1828-1988: A Luminary Series of Records Played in Parallel
, by Perth artists Sohan Hayes and Benjamin Forster, was part of the Perth Cultural Centre ephemeral public art program.
The cost for
A Luminary Series of Records
was $25,372, from the overall budget of $370,000 for the 18 month public art program.
The program has included 14 ephemeral or temporary public art projects exhibited in the Perth Cultural Centre over the 18 months from January 2011 to June 2012. The program has included a wide variety of art forms, including sculpture, lighting, digital media, performance art and a very striking contemporary aboriginal artwork. It has included several local Perth artists, as well as a number of successful national artists and a Turner Prize nominee from the UK, Nathan Coley.
This innovative program has been delivered through a collaboration between the Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority and the Department of Culture and the Arts, as part of the very successful overall project of urban renewal and place activation of the Perth Cultural Centre.
(b) The public art program was funded by the Department of Culture and the Arts through an MoU with the former East Perth Redevelopment Authority, now the Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority, to contribute towards the Perth Cultural Centre urban renewal project.
