Land Art Generator Initiative: LAGI 2016 Design Competition and LAGI Youth Prize 2015-2016
Geschreven op 10-12-2015 - Erik van Erne. Geplaatst in Agenda, Design, Energie en Besparing
The Land Art Generator Initiative (LAGI) announced that the LAGI Design Competition 2016 will be held in Southern California, with the City of Santa Monica as site partner.
The complete Design Guidelines along with dimensioned drawings, CAD files, photos, and more will be available on January 1, 2016.
On the design site that includes the breakwater adjacent to the historic Santa Monica Pier, interdisciplinary teams are invited to design a public artwork that generates clean electricity and/or drinking water at a utility scale for the city. The site offers the opportunity to utilize wave and tidal energy as well as wind, solar, and other technologies.
Throughout 2016, LAGI will hold numerous events showcasing the submissions and the design ideas they contain. Public programming will reach a broad demographic throughout Los Angeles County and beyond with exhibitions, panel discussions, lectures, publications, and more related to the science of energy as experienced through art.
Through a generous partnership with the LA Chapter of the US Green Building Council, the award ceremony, exhibition, and book launch will be in Los Angeles during October of 2016 at Greenbuild 2016 (Expo: October 5-6 – Conference: October 5-7).
Programming in Southern California throughout 2016 will show how interdisciplinary collaboration is playing an important role in defining the design influence of renewable energy on our constructed environments and point out the reciprocal role of society in defining the aesthetics of renewable energy infrastructure itself.
In addition to the LAGI 2016 design competition, there will be a LAGI 2015–2016 Youth Prize for those aged 18 and below. The Youth Prize is currently open and runs from August 15, 2015 – May 15 2016. Young people can participate on their own, through classrooms, in after school programs, or in teams of their choice.
Calling all Middle School and High School students around the world. You are invited to design a concept for a public artwork at the Santa Monica beach using renewable energy technologies as your sculptural material. Your artwork should be able to help power the Santa Monica Pier with carbon-free and renewable electricity, and serve as Southern California’s newest tourist attraction at the same time!
Two teams (one middle school and one high school) will each win $3,000 in prize money. All submissions will be in a printed publication, exhibitions, and online portfolio. This is an ideas competition only; we can’t guarantee that any ideas will be built.
