Project to Surface: Art + Architecture

Posted on April 24, 2007 Under Art

Project to Surface is a 5-artist project that is very much a work in progress, with each artist collaborating with architectural designer (and guru) Ben Krone, who operates the high tech CNC (computer numerical control) router that brings the artists’ work to life in 3D form. The show, which will be happening from June 27th to August 27 in New York City, draws inspiration from the age-old process by which two dimensional patterns are plotted onto building surfaces to create bulging, dimpled, or textured appearances. The real beauty will come from the results achieved by these artistic collaborators who customarily use different tools and methods to create their art. And so you can more accurately and fully understand their creation process, they’ve been keeping their website current with progress photos of each artists’ collaboration with Ben Krone. You can also sign up for their list, so that you can be kept in the loop as the show draws near.
