Lyman Whitaker Revised Proposal
Southlake Arts Council consideration of a
final concept proposal and recommendation of public art for Frank
Edgar Cornish, IV Park
City of Southlake Values:
For your review, the revised proposal for Kinetic Sculpture at Frank Edgar Cornish Park
in Southlake Texas is attached. This Revision contains all elements ofour previous
proposal and incorporates the following modifications identified on our site visit in
September.
Display area changed from 18’ to 16’. The number and style of sculptures
remains the same, however the height of the tallest sculptures was increased by
approximately two feet. This allowed us to place the surrounding sculptures
closer. Also, we changed the concrete circle to an octagon. We felt that the
octagon provides a better relationship to seating in the area as well as a cleaner
transition to join the pavers surrounding the sculpture.The finish texture of
concrete surface will be chosen after a local contractor in Southlake is selected.
Lighting placement identified. Lighting will be accomplished with eighteen (18) in
ground color LED RGB lights. Simulations included. Color control and brightness
will be accomplished with an RF remote control.
Stainless steel sleeves will be installed at base of each shaft to cover mounting
screws and prevent tampering.
Cost and timeline remainunchanged.
Thank youfor your consideration
