Donations of fabric from the Birmingham community are still needed for a giant fabric art installation being created to celebrate theUniversity of Alabama at Birmingham Cultural Corridor.
In the first joint project for UAB’s Cultural Corridor, the Alys Stephens Performing Arts Center, theDepartment of Art and Art History, and the newAbroms-Engel Institute for the Visual Artstogether have commissioned Brooklyn-based artistAmanda Browder to create “Magic Chromacity.” The vast works Browder is creating with community members will use recycled and donated materials to create large-scale art pieces adorning both the AEIVA and ASC buildings, which face each other on 10th Avenue South on the UAB campus. The large-scale art pieces will allow the buildings to “speak” to each other while also serving as individual works.
