Temporary Art Program
Metro Arts is producing the Brisbane City Council Temporary Art Program (TAP). TAP is a contemporary public art program that transforms public outdoor spaces across the city through temporary, creative activations. The program seeks to celebrate Brisbane’s community, environment and unique creative energy whilst providing exhibition and professional development opportunities to local artists.
This year the TAP program will include 5 activations. These activations will be high quality temporary public artworks by practitioners working across a diverse cross-section of contemporary creative practice. Through TAP, Metro Arts supports artists to demonstrate innovation, experimentation, rigour and critical engagement in the challenging context of the public realm.
