  • Brief Description

    The Utah Public Art Program of the Division of Arts and Museums, in association with the Division of Facilities Construction and Management and University of Utah, is seeking artists interested in creating site-specific artwork for the new Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine. This new facility will be a state-of-the-art academic medical center. It will provide patient care for nearly 10 percent of the geographic area of the continental United States while training the next generation of health care professionals.

    The Art Selection Committee is seeking artists who understand the value and role of the School of Medicine. The design of the building provides many opportunities for the integration of artwork into the architecture and site. Artwork should be specific to the medical center and reflect the innovation and discovery encouraged by the University’s health sciences programs
