Visible
Art at Republic Tower is the first major project
of the Visible Art Foundation. The Republic Tower
is an adventurous and challenging work of architecture,
located in the city of Melbourne Australia. The
Republic Tower’s designers are Nation Fender
Katsalidis Architects.
The Visible Art Foundation commissioned artists
to work
on a project to create images for
the Artboards, representing the art
site. They were essentially two
curved billboards comprising the
first 4 storeys of the buildings prominent corner
position, and
made with the image printed on to
vinyl and stretched over the board.
Sally Smart was a commissioned
artist in 2001, working with the Visible Art Foundation’s
project manager Bruce Filley.
