Why You Need an Art Consultancy for Public Art Commissions
Public art plays a crucial role in shaping the identity of a city, fostering community engagement, and celebrating cultural heritage. However, executing a successful public art commission is a complex process that requires expertise in curation, project management, and stakeholder coordination. This is where art consultancy comes in.
The Importance of Art Consultancy in Public Art Commissions
1. Strategic Curation & Concept Development
For example, SMRT’s public art murals at Somerset, Dhoby Ghaut, and Tiong Bahru stations, executed in collaboration with Asia Art Collective, were designed to reflect Singapore’s evolving urban landscape while engaging the public through visual storytelling.
2. Artist Selection & Commissioning
Choosing the right artist for a public art commission is critical. Art consultancies curate and manage artists with the right expertise and artistic style to execute large-scale murals, sculptures, or installations.
One notable project is SMRT’s 35th Anniversary Comic Connect Project, where Asia Art Collective played a key role in selecting and managing artists to produce four murals across Somerset, Tiong Bahru, Dhoby Ghaut, and Lakeside stations, bringing heritage-inspired storytelling to the public transport network.
3. Project Management & Logistics
4. Community Engagement & Public Relations
For instance, the SMRT Comic Connect Project aimed to create an immersive experience for commuters by using murals to depict Singapore’s rich transport history, encouraging nostalgia and public appreciation.
5. Long-Term Maintenance & Preservation
