MONUMENT RESPONSE PROJECT

The Chicago Park District (Park District) invites artists or artist teams with a demonstrated experience in completing temporary, outdoor installations, performances and/or ephemeral public artworks (or other relevant experiences) to submit proposals for the commission of a site-responsive installation or performance-based intervention for one of three selected monuments identified by the Park District and highlighted in the Chicago Monuments Project Report: A Signal of Peace, William McKinley Monument, and General Philip Henry Sheridan. These three monuments are located on Chicago Park District property. This project is an elaboration of the Chicago Monuments Project (CMP) and represents an ongoing initiative to expand Chicago's public art collection and celebrate Chicago’s diverse history and culture. Cortney Lederer of CNL Projects will manage and support this project in collaboration with the Chicago Park District.

Due: 11:59pm CST April 28th, 2025

A Signal of Peace, Lincoln Park, Cyrus Edwin Dallin, 1890.
