Pittsburgh and Braddock Murals, New Website PghMurals.com

Pittsburgh and Braddock Murals: I especially like when they do the more in-depth looks at the murals which tend to justify more information, just click on the more info icon once you have selected a mural. Great project!

Now all we need is a more balanced and varied approach to the types of mural/public art in the region in terms of language, subject matter and mediums.

Pittsburgh Public Art Resources

The URA and the Office of Public Art have come up with a document to help with and promote contracting Pittsburgh artists for commissioning small and large scale works of art. As mentioned in the guide public art doesn't always need to mean sculptures but can also be 2 dimensional works of art to be displayed inside of buildings.

The Pittsburgh Office of Public Art has published a new document titled, “Add Value Add Art” The document billed as a, “public art resource guide for developers,” was produced at the request of Urban Redevelopment Authority which wanted to help promote public art in new developments around town.

The document can be found at the URA web site.

A list of local Pitttsburgh artists can be found here.

I've been a fan and follower of This Is Happening for several years and recommend you create a profile and specify your event preferences so you can receive a rundown on what's going on in Pittsburgh. It's the most comprehensive and customizable resource for Pittsburgh events I know of. I don't recommend going hog wild with the event preferences as you'll end up with a seemingly endless list ( cause there's like a lot goin and stuff).

The Pittsburgh Artist Registry is a great resource for patrons, artists, non-profits, committees, foundations, galleries and beyond. Art collectors and patrons can search by medium to find work which speaks to them and local foundations and committees looking to support local art can look up artists.

Artists, make sure you have every category updated that you work in as well as custom work details etc. Make sure all of your artist friends are signed up as well.

The Pittsburgh Artist Registry is a project of The Office of Public Art. The Office of Public Art is a partnership between the Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council and the City of Pittsburgh Department of City Planning with funding provided by The Heinz Endowments. The Pittsburgh Artist Registry is funded in part by a grant from the National Endowments for the Arts.

Pittsburgh Glass Artists! Where are You?

Last week I was looking for glass artists interested in having their work on consignment at an artist owned jewelry store which gets great traffic and I didn't find any listed at http://www.pittsburghartistregistry.org/ . That is the frequently used and most important Pittsburgh Artist Registry run by GPAC, the Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council. Please pass the word on to Pittsburgh Glass Artists!

Update: The glass arts category was recently added to the registry site so artists who are already registered there and who work in glass should update their profiles.

Pittsburgh Art Galleries Website Updated www.PghGalleries.com

Do you know how many art galleries there are in the Pittsburgh region? Visit www.pittsburghgalleries.com and find out! There's an easier "by area" section as well here.

The site, also found at www.PghGalleries.com, was updated yesterday. Info for Modernformations Gallery was updated and Bloomfield Artworks is now listed as closed. You'll also find ads listed throughout the websites and blogs, when clicked they are the sole means of defraying the costs involved with the webserver. You can also donate any amount to me here.
