IDEA: Portfolio-Group work- Collaboration (Art in Public Places Project)



As part of The Works Art and Design in Public Places; Greg Ball, Shoko Cesar, Jayn Macintosh, and Orsolya Jacob were invited to design eight sculptural poles at the Commonwealth Stadium for the 2001 8th IAAF Worlds Championships in Athletics in Edmonton Alberta. This project was led by Robert Lederer, Cezary Gajewski, and Michael Syms. Collaboration was successful in creating a series of animated sculptural poles, which thread together the long corridor between the Stadium and the LRT station. This project was seen by the thousands of people who attended the Worlds in Edmonton, and will continue to be a central point to the millions of others who will visit Commonwealth in the future.
