Temporary Art

From seasonal retail installations to events and parades, BAM selectively takes commissions for ephemeral art installations. Led by our New York studio, the temporary art pieces face challenges unlike our other disciplines. On the one hand a temporary art installation offers a great deal of freedom and creativity from the bonds of permanence and economy. However the design process of these projects must transcend the simple notion of concept we learn in design school. To make a real effect on hundreds or thousands of people who will enjoy a temporary installation, the designer must connect directly to popular motifs. Although a grounds for great experimentation, temporary art installation design requires an ability to understand and work within both high and low culture.
