University of Illinois Art in Architecture at SCCIL
The project consists of a new 4-story structure designed to house instructional, studio, and meeting spaces as well as faculty offices at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign.
The project architect and the AIA committee have identified multiple potential locations for
artwork throughout the building and on the exterior site. These locations are not intended to
limit the artists, who are welcome to propose alternate locations. The committee has created the objectives for specific area to complement both the building and campus.
Choice of media for the project is broad but should be in material suitable for a long life in either an exterior or interior environment. Both two- and three-dimensional artwork are welcome. Depending on the location, the artist should consider works that have an impact
from both a close-up range and from a distance.
Artists and artist-led teams interested in the project should email one copy of each of the following items.
Images of the artwork (photography for extant work, and detailed renderings for proposed
commissions) along with dimensions, materials, and general description of the work
Artist CV (if a team, one from each member) with contact information
Artist Statement of intent (one page maximum, specifically about the proposed work, not
only a generic artist statement)
Contact information for professional references
Note: Send images as JPEG or PDF files only. All submittals become the property of the
University of Illinois Art in Architecture Program and will not be returned. The artist retains all
copyrights to their work.
