2012 Art on Market Street Kiosk Poster Series
SF Arts Commision
San Francisco
The San Francisco Arts Commission is the City agency that champions the arts in San Francisco. The Art on Market Street Program, which has commissioned new artwork by Bay Area artists on an annual basis since 1992, includes a bus kiosk poster series and other temporary projects that take place on San Francisco’s main thoroughfare. For the kiosk poster series, the Art on Market Street Program commissions three consecutive three-month poster exhibitions annually. Each poster series consists of a set of six original and related designs that are professionally reproduced and printed as six sets of posters, 68 inches high by 47 ¼ inches wide (trim size), for installation in 36 bus kiosks on Market Street between 8 th Street and the Embarcadero. All artists’ designs must be approved by the Arts Commission and are expected to be appropriate for a broad public audience.
