Theonceneglectedsquareonthecorner of the busy Congress and High streets intersection has recently become the center of a competitive new public arts project. Con- gress Square Park, saved from development by impassioned Portland residents of in 2014, is due to become the canvas for an artwork designed by a bright young thing on the sculp- turescene. Patrick Marold of Colorado; Ned Kahn of California; and Matthew Ritchie and Sarah Sze,bothofNewYorkCity,havepresentedtheir proposals for the space to the Portland Public ArtCommitteeinabidtowinthe$75,000grant and a chan ce to create a centerpiece within the diminutive park, currently the site of intermit- tentsalsanights,livemusic,andfilmscreenings. Eachartisthasprovidedvideoandphotograph- ic examples of previous public works. The suc- cessful artist will design and install their cre- ation in partnership with Philadephia-based designarchitecturefirmWRT. “The requirements for this piece were both rigorous and nebulous,” says chair of the Port- land Public Art Committee Lin Lisberger. “On one the hand we need a 3D artist with experi- ence in outdoor installations with a durability of up to 25 years. And on the other we want an artist rather than a designer–a truly top-notch sculptor who can collaborate without compro- mising his or her work. Our finalists fit that brief. I’m extremely happy with the selection; they’reallthoughtful,engagingartists.” Any regrets not to include a local artist? “We were interested in the cross-fertiliza- tion of creativity. We didn’t want to confine our search by geography.” ThePortlandPublicArtCommitteeexpects thesculpturetobecompletedbySpring2017. n
