[Af_List] Auckland CBD Public art work development plan

[Matthew McGowan]

This is a bit off-topic, more so for those not of Auckland, but here goes...


St Kevin's Arcade entry, Karangahape Road (Item 27) is listed a a 
potential site for public art in the Auckland City Council's CBD Public 
art work development plan.

They are soliciting feedback from residents on the proposed sites:

The current artwork types/themes are listed as:
Integrated artwork
Temporary
Polynesian

... not too inspiring so far.  And i think its fair to say public art 
isn't one of Auckland's strong suits.

I figure St. Kevins, Cross street and Artspace hold a special 
significance for many of us, and perhaps our feedback could help cement 
a nice little arts precinct in the general K'road area.

So i encourage Aucklander's to provide some advice to our council.


Regards,
Matt
