Design Challenge:

To create an innovative street presence for visual art during Artcity

and other special events in Calgary, the annual juried Peep Show

competition will commission the design and construction (pending

funding) of one exhibition pavilion each year. The pavilions will be

designed to show one or more works of art. In the near future, viewers will find free exhibitions in temporary Artcity pavilions throughout downtown.

The pavilions will:

1. animate Calgary’s downtown by creating ingenious new uses for

underused public spaces

2. delight pedestrians through encounters with visual art

SitingPavilions must respond to Calgary’s downtown public space or

streetscape.

Function

Pavilions must be designed to present visual art in a way that is

beneficial both for the art and the viewer. Art may be viewed either

from inside or outside the pavilion. Pavilions may be designed for a

particular art form (i.e. video art, sculpture, performance art,

painting, etc.) or to exhibit a variety of art forms. Illustrate how

art will be exhibited in your pavilion.
