The City of Westminster College library was built by Shmidt Hammer Lassen,
the company building the Halifax Library.
The Halifax Regional Municipality is seeking qualified professional artists and artist-led collaborative groups to participate in a public art design process for the new Halifax Central Library, scheduled for completion in 2013. The first stage of this solicitation is a Request for Qualifications. From the submissions to this stage a shortlist of up to five artists will be invited to participate in a second, Request for Proposals stage. These artists will work in consultation with project architects and municipal staff to produce a detailed design for integrated public artwork to be included in the construction of the Halifax Central Library.
Artists selected to the shortlist will be paid a fee of $3000 for the completion of their detailed design proposal. Artists will submit proposals based on a total project budget of $450,000 for the public art component of the Library. This budget is inclusive of all material and production costs of the artwork, as well as all artist and professional fees.
