City of VancouverOlympic & Paralympic Public Art
It is with great pleasure that I invite residents and visitors to discover Vancouver’s newly commissioned Olympic and Paralympic public art, which has added yet another unique dimension to our city’s current collection.
Vancouver has long been blessed with a magnificent natural landscape. Now, this collection brings us many steps closer to redefining our built landscape with artworks that are transforming our cultural and physical backdrop.
The sculptures, installations and events in this city-wide collection reflect the spirit and values of Vancouver and the 2010 Winter Games, from their nod to our historical and social fabric to their innovative incorporation of sustainable materials. Bold and vibrant, they have been created by respected established and emerging artists from Vancouver and Canada. We’re also pleased to include in this collection exciting international artists working in contemporary art.
The diversity of Vancouver’s Olympic and Paralympic public art reflects the City’s vision to invest in the creative arts and culture of Vancouver during the next decade. As the world spotlight turns to Vancouver in 2010, I know these works will stand out as highlights of the City’s legacy of the 2010 Winter Games long after the Olympic Flame is extinguished.

Welcome
About the programThe City of Vancouver’s Olympic and Paralympic Public Art Program includes more than 20 new perma-nent and temporary public artworks commissioned for the 2010 Winter Games.
This diverse collection ranges from grand light-based works and sculptural installations at city landmarks to celebratory works in the heart of our communities. One commission, Bright Light, brings together the talent and imaginations of art organizations based in the Downtown Eastside, showcasing the cultural vitality of one of Vancouver’s most dynamic neighbourhoods. The City is also pleased to collaborate with the Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad and the Vancouver Art Gallery on spectacular projects that bring the world to Vancouver, and Vancouver to the world.
For more than two decades, the City’s Public Art Program has invigorated civic spaces and private develop ments. The program aims to foster works of art that express the spirit, values, visions, and poetry of place that collectively define Vancouver.
The Olympic and Paralympic Public Art Program brings public art to new and familiar places. Look for these new commissions in parks, on streets and waterways, and in the skies above.

Aerodynamic Forms in SpaceRodney Graham
Georgia Street entrance to Stanley Park
A major figure in Canadian and international
contemporary art, Vancouver artist Rodney
Graham is well known for his conceptual and
often humourous sculptures. His piece for
the Georgia Street entrance to Stanley Park,
a spectacular 400-hectare evergreen oasis
in the downtown peninsula, plays with the
theme of flight—a whimsical reference to the
location’s nearby seaplanes.

Vancouver Central Library—North Plaza350 West Georgia Street January – December 2010
Vancouver artist Christian Kliegel’s architecturally-
inspired structure on the Vancouver Central
Library’s north plaza serves as an open-air theatre
for Here You Are, an outdoor exhibition of video,
still and performance works by local artists.
Curated by Cate Rimmer, curator for the Charles
H. Scott Gallery at Emily Carr University of Art and
Design, the installation will feature six different
exhibition programs over the year.
Walk In/Here You Are explores ideas of presentation
and location. It invites visitors to interact with the
installation’s physical components and to use it as
an outdoor social space while viewing works by
both established and emerging Vancouver artists.

Vancouver Central Library—South Plaza350 West Georgia Street
Vancouver artist Ron Terada’s light-based artwork
for the Central Library takes its cue from an era
when signs were seen as grand iconic landmarks.
The work is a reference to Vancouver’s neon past,
when the famous BOW-MAC sign and legendary
Woodward’s W reigned over the city’s skyline. Its
location by the library touches on, in a poetic way,
the use of words and language as boundless and
imaginative—a catalyst for multiple meanings.

BoulevardAdrian Göllner & Pierre Poussin
Cambie Street, from Broadway to King Edward Avenue
Hamilton & Mainland Streets, from Pacific Boulevard to West Georgia Street
As a way of brightening Vancouver’s dark winter
nights, Canadian artists Adrian Göllner and
Pierre Poussin have created three artistic lighting
schemes for the Cambie Street corridor and
Yaletown. Fireworks Boulevard, a series of LED
fireworks down Cambie Street, welcomes visitors
as they travel along one of Vancouver’s busiest
routes. Downtown, people can find their way
between LiveCity Vancouver celebration sites
by following Rain Barrels, a group of cool blue
animated light sequences, and Flames, a set of
flickering candle-like LED lights that bring a touch
of the Olympic Torch outdoors.

Surface is a live documentary of the rich under-
water life of False Creek, transmitted from a camera
mounted under the Aquabus (a small commuter
ferry) to screens located onshore. During the term
of its installation, Vancouver artist Fiona Bowie
hopes to track the health of False Creek’s marine
life as evidence of our collective footprint.

Garde-tempsTania Ruiz Gutiérrez
Under the Cambie Street Bridge at West 2nd Avenue (by Olympic Village Canada Line Station)
Paris-based artist Tania Ruiz Gutiérrez’s
imaginative open-space video art installations
and programmed digital works have gained her
worldwide recognition. Garde-temps, her light-
based sculptural work under the Cambie Street
Bridge, traces the geometric abstract forms of
weaving to the fabrication of modern film and
photographic images. Using a camera that
captures heat, movement on the walkway under
the bridge is revealed on a large colourful vase
located beside the pedestrian path.

Ice LightGunda Förster
Vancouver City HallWest 12th Avenue & Cambie Street
German artist Gunda Förster’s inventive light
installations can be found in major cities through-
out Europe. Ice Light, her work for Vancouver
City Hall and her first North American commission,
appears as ice gracing the edges of the heritage
building. Starting at dusk, as City Hall’s tower
clock marks the hour, the lights cascade over the
building’s external edges. In addition to its artistic
qualities, the installation’s use of LED lights will
reduce the power consumption of City Hall’s
exterior lighting by more than 70 per cent.

Sensory Maps of VancouverAnna Ruth
Various bus shelters throughout VancouverJanuary 25 – March 21, 2010
Sensory Maps of Vancouver is a series of drawings
that records the movement of city buses and,
at the same time, reflects the experience of public
transportation in the urban environment. Using
simple drawing tools, Finland-based artist Anna
Ruth let the vibrations of each vehicle dictate the
lines she translated to paper as she rode and
moved from bus to bus during a 24-hour period.
The end result—twenty bus routes, one train
line and one Seabus trip later—is a collection of
enlarged ‘maps’ that are displayed in bus shelter
advertising spaces around Vancouver. The
map legends include details about the bus, the
driver, the stops, times of travel and weather
conditions.

Vancouver artist Ken Lum’s Monument for East
Vancouver is a large-scale version of a street
image that has circulated in East Vancouver for
decades: a crossword of VAN EAST using the
common “A”. With the entire cross-shaped text
outlined in white LED lights, the installation has
multiple associations, including religion and
irreverence, and is an assertion of eastside identity.
The work is located at the crest of East 6th
Avenue at Clark Drive, where it can be seen from
significant vantage points to the west.

Vancouver artist David MacWilliam’s six hand-cast
translucent forms stand as beacons on lamp
standards in the medians on Kingsway near Knight
Street. Inspired by combinations of historical
streetlights, Kingsway Luminaires features LED
lights that slowly change colour, beginning at dusk
and continuing through dawn. The artist’s intent
is to provide nearby residents and commuters
a multi-hued marker as part of their everyday
experience.

The BirdsMyfanwy MacLeod
Southeast False Creek Plaza (Olympic Village)1 Athletes Way
Vancouver artist Myfanwy MacLeod has always
been interested in the ability of art to convey
political and historical meaning. The Birds,
her work for Southeast False Creek Olympic
Plaza, has been shaped by this new community’s
focus on sustainability. The work highlights both
the lighter and graver sides of what can happen
when a non-native species is introduced to
an environment, how the beauty of birds can
sometimes mask their threat to biodiversity.
Watch for The Birds, which will be installed after
the 2010 Winter Games.

Well-known for his transformative site-specific
installations, Taipei-based artist Michael Lin has
been commissioned to create a massive mural for
the Vancouver Art Gallery’s Georgia Street façade.
The mural, which was hand-painted by local
artists, features patterns and exuberant colours
adapted from traditional Taiwanese designs.
The placement of Lin’s work on the Gallery’s
exterior—the first presentation of his work in
Canada—invites visitors to reconsider the building’s
history and neo-classical architecture in a new
light, while acknowledging the city’s diverse
cultural traditions.
Michael Lin: A Modest Veil is organized by the Vancouver Art Gallery and presented with Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad and the City of Vancouver Public Art Program. The exhibition is sponsored by Omega and supported by the Council for Cultural Affairs (Chinese Taipei) in collabora- tion with the Taipei Cultural Center of TECO in New York.
