SUMMARY:Virtual | Landmarks: A Discussion on Public Art\, with Sarah Oppenheimer & Andrée Bober
DESCRIPTION:2pm PT / 3pm MT / 4pm CT / 5pm ET\n\n\n\nPlease join us for a virtual conversation between artist Sarah Oppenheimer and Andrée Bober\, founding director and curator of Landmarks\, the public art program of The University of Texas at Austin. The discussion will offer an inside look at C-010106\, Oppenheimer’s recent commission for the university’s College of Engineering. Oppenheimer and Bober will introduce the work and share insights on developing a major outdoor public art project within a unique and complex architectural setting. \n\n\n\nC-010106 consists of two structures positioned at opposite ends of a new pedestrian footbridge on the Texas Engineering campus. Each structure features four panes of glass⎯ two reflective\, diagonal sheets sandwiched between two vertical sheets. At the intersection of the four panes\, the glass passes through an incision in the bridge’s surface\, enabling pedestrians on top of the bridge to see the reflections of those underneath\, and vice versa.  \n\n\n\nOppenheimer pushes the boundaries between sculpture and architecture\, questioning the limits of both mediums. The artist shifts our frame of spatial reference\, displacing our experience of inside and out\, and inverting our sense of what is near and far. In doing so\, Oppenheimer heightens our awareness of the shared environment and creates unexpected opportunities for social exchange. \n\n\n\nC-010106 is Oppenheimer’s first entirely outdoor public work and is among the artist’s largest works to date. Sited on the Peyton Yates Family footbridge connecting the Engineering Education and Research Center (EERC) to the new Gary L. Thomas Energy Engineering Building (GLT)—designed through a collaboration of Jacobs and Ennead—the work features architectural materials that have been engineered with unique specificity. \n\n\n\nAdmission: \n\n\n\nArtTable Circle Members – FreeAll Other ArtTable Members – $10Member Guests/Non-Members – $20\n\n\n\nNot a member?
