Submissions begin Feb. 5 for artists to submit their work.<\/p>\n
TAMPA, Fla. \u2014 Tampa International Airport announced Tuesday morning it will add eight new art commissions to the airport.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The airport announced that they will add six of the eight to the forthcoming Airside D, the new 16-gate international and domestic Airside currently under construction. The other two will go to the two newly expanded security screening checkpoints in Airsides A and E, which opened in 2025.<\/p>\n
Submissions for artists to send in their artwork will start on Feb. 5 and will close on March 19.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The process will consist of two phases. The first phase will conduct a review of all CaFE-submitted applications and will develop a short list of Qualified Artists. The second will invite the artists from the group and submit a proposal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The proposal will include a $4,000 stipend to allow them to develop 3-D views, a maquette, and a representation to show their concept and design intent.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the last few years, the airport has constructed 16 public art installations around the terminal, including the 21-foot pink flamingo, Phoebe, in the Main Terminal.<\/p>\n
The artists must confirm with the airport that they have completed a commission or sold one piece of artwork for a minimum of $15,000.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Submissions begin Feb. 5 for artists to submit their work.
