Glendale’s City Hall has new public art on prime display.
The city worked earlier this year with IN FLUX, a Valley nonprofit that supports Arizona artists. The mission involves developing temporary public art installations in six Valley cities — in Glendale’s case, displaying a new work in City Hall’s entrance lobby directly behind the security desk as visitors enter.
The project yielded a work entitled “Big Wall Big Art,” and was commissioned to Tucson artist Heather Bentz, whose eight-by-10 foot concept was favored by the Glendale arts commission, which unanimously approved her design.
