CSU Channel Islands Gateway Hall Public Art Project
(805) 437-1614 1 University Dr Camarillo 93012 |
The University Artwork Committee (UARC) is seeking California-based artists and artists teams that will create a work of art that enlightens, inspires, and welcomes all who enter the new Gateway of our campus. The artwork will be situated in Gateway Hall, conceptualized as the new front door to campus and a key signpost for wayfinding throughout campus – both as a guide to navigating the physical campus as well as a directional aid for understanding our institutional commitments and core values.
Located strategically at the entrance to campus, the artwork will serve as an introduction to campus for prospective students and members of the community, as well as a reminder to current students, faculty, and staff of our unique campus. The artwork should express our core mission of serving the region, especially Ventura and Santa Barbara counties, expressed by our intentional “regional outside inside” framework. As a campus, Channel Islands has a vision for being a catalyst that promotes regional wellness and well-being, a concept we call One Health, where health is multivalent and includes the environment, community, and economy. In particular, Channel Islands strives to promote an all-encompassing vision for wellness in the region that includes equity and justice, physical and mental health, environmental and climate stewardship, thriving communities and organizations, educational opportunity for all citizens, and economic security and mobility. The campus aspires to be a transformational academic force whose diverse graduates provide leadership for human, economic, and environmental well-being in the central coast and beyond. Please see the Discover CSU Channel Islands video for an overview of this vision combined with our unique sense of place.
The UARC will work within the campus Policy on Artwork, Antiquities and Artifacts as well as the CSU Policy on Art Collection Management.
