Public Artist Registry Volume VI launched in the USA

Date uploaded: June 11, 2009

83 of America's best public artists have been featured in a public art resource and online image library.

4Culture, the cultural services agency in King County, Washington, has announced the launch of the ARTIST REGISTRY VOLUME VI – a comprehensive source of pre-qualified artists suitable for both public and private commissions.

With over 3,000 images from 91 portfolios by 83 artists, ARTIST REGISTRY VOLUME VI, is one of the only web publications of such magnitude in the industry. The Registry selection process was conducted by a panel of peer professionals, seeking work meeting rigorous standards of quality and expertise.

The Registry is conceived as a resource for architects, urban planners, developers, designers, engineers and government agencies who are seeking the right collaborator to transform a space into an authentic and fully realized artistic vision. 4Culture Project Manager, Jordan Howland states:

“Artists bring unique skills to the process of building and help us create vibrant, inviting places that resonate with meaning. This resource is available to make their skills and services more accessible for anyone who wants to incorporate that influence in their built environment.”

The Registry is a tool for professionals in the field, but is also accessible to members of the general public who are seeking to learn more about public artists and their work.

The registry may be viewed free of charge: click here.
