During May, the curator selected from bios and samples of artwork the ten artists who would be exhibited in Baltimore Exposure. The Planning and Urban Design Manager of DPOB, Marshall Snively, contacted the buildings managers of five class A office buildings. He proposed the art show and finalized spaces within each building that could be used for exhibits. The curator then contacted the building managers to have selected artists approved and to establish the necessary display techniques and equipment. During June, the artists themselves were responsible for providing wire, nails, etc.
All artwork is for sale and any sales are coordinated by the curator.
Where possible, there is artwork displayed in vacant, street level store windows. The artists will be present at the reception to discuss their work and to meet with the community. After the reception, the work will remain on display and it is hoped that passers-by and downtown employees will appreciate and inquire about the artwork. The desired audience includes tourists visiting the downtown area, employees working in and around the buildings there and residents who utilize the services of businesses in the downtown area. To publicize the Baltimore Exposure Art Show, copies of the project proposal were distributed to local politicians, grant makers and newspapers.
