EXTERNAL APP -- https://artist.callforentry.org/festivals_unique_info.php?ID=15407 -- Orange County Arts & Cultural Affairs, in collaboration with the Public Art Review Board, is seeking submissions from one or more qualified artists or artist teams to develop artwork for “The Tasting Room” at the Orange County Convention Center. The proposed artwork should incorporate themes related to food preparation, chef imagery, and the Convention Center’s hydroponic gardens. Including imagery of Chef K would be considered a plus; however, general chef-related visuals focused on food preparation are also acceptable. “The Tasting Room” is a contemporary, stylish space inviting guests to experience the culinary expertise of Chef K and his dedicated team. Visitors can explore the venue's modern design while considering catering options for upcoming events. The selected artist(s) will be commissioned to create a site-specific horizontal artwork approximately 9’8” x 5’3”, to be installed on canvas or other approved materials. The design should take into account the space below the artwork to ensure adequate clearance for the display of food and beverages. Please include the size of framing in the overall measurements of the artwork.
